When a Man Dies in a Sex Act with a Horse -- What's a Reporter to Do?

The AP story gave basic facts about the case. It mentioned that the man -- who died of internal bleeding from anal sex with the animal -- died after visiting a farm in nearby Enumclaw that attracted "a significant number of people" looking to engage in bestiality. Therefore, Sullivan said, "We thought if there was more than one person participating in this, it needed to be reported." [...]

Although she never reported the man's name, in her second article Sullivan did say that he was 45 years old and added that he died of acute peritonitis due to the perforation of the colon. But because Washington is one of 17 states that does not outlaw bestiality, having sex with a horse is not a crime and his death will not be investigated. [...]

The two articles also have prompted a local senator to start drawing up a bill that would outlaw bestiality. Sullivan also reported the opinions of a local animal activist who also is calling for reform.

In ancient rome, a common death penalty was "raped to death by giraffe".

By "common" I take it to mean, "when giraffes were available". I think crucifixion was a little more common, but it does make me wonder how different the rites of Christianity would be if death by giraffe rape HAD been more prevalent. I mean, people make the sign of the cross in church now... would they have to make the sign of the giraffe? How absurd that would be!

what is "the sign of the giraffe" exactly?

In her first probe, Sullivan wrote that the farm was discussed in Internet chat rooms as a "destination" spot for people looking to have sex with animals.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Why can't we stop trying to protect people from themselves by making more laws? Oh, wait, maybe that senator was counting on a certain demographic for votes...

I realized after I posted that I should have said, "After dispatching the 42-year-old man, the killer equine went looking for the horse he rode in on."

Heh, animal activist... I'd like to see them tackle this one.

"Having sex with animals, uh, takes away... um... the animal's rights!"

"What rights would that be?"

"Well... I guess the right not to have sex. It's an important right!"

Actually, I think the arguement is that children and animals can't consent. Otherwise, pretty much anything two (or more) consenting adults can think of is fine with me. It might not be my "thing", but hey, more power to you if you can think of something that's too kinky for my tastes. Whatever. Just leave kids and animals out of it.

You've obviously never been the victim of attempted-donkey-rape. Sometimes they consent and YOU dont.

Yes, that's true. I've never been raped by a donkey. Let's try to keep it that way, ok? :)

I'm also willing to bet that it isn't difficult to get a thoroghbred (sp?) Stallion to screw you. The real question here is, how STUPID would you have to be to do that??

I think that has already been empirically and conclusively determined — fatally stupid.

Oh, well, I suppose if they had a long-term relationship and were deeply commited to a monogomous bestial relationship, that somehow changes things...

Given the mode of death, it's hard to imagine the horse didn't consent. It's a lot harder to force someone (something?) to pitch than catch...

I have seen videos of the, ah, the pair in action, and the horse was quite enthusiastic. I will refrain from posting a link here, though. I imagine that there are some things that even JWZ cannot stomach.

Only one way to find out.... I noticed nobody linked the octopus-emerging-from-vagina video from that "octopus appreciation community" a week or two ago either.

A funny argument, given that it's pretty damn clear if a male animal consents or not.

In this case, consent aside, I think another good arguement against it is that FUCKING A HORSE CAN KILL YOU BY RUPTURING YOUR COLON. Morality and ethics aside, a ruptured colon can be pretty persuasive in its own right.

Perhaps some sort of government-approved rating group that would give horses appropriate rating, from "G" for children to "GO" for "Goatse Only"?

A brand.

And next week you'll see a news post about someone dying of third degree burns from "accidentally" sitting on the horse-warning-brand.

That's a valid point, but I imagine that if a horse is putting its dick in your ass and thrusting hard enough to tear your rectum, I think that's signs of consent, really.

Not to mention slaughtering food animals. It's okay to kill an animal and eat it, but it's not OK to let one have sex with you? Explain that one to me.

Sheepskin condoms -- it's wrong to fuck a sheep, but if you kill it, take out its intestine, and fuck a human through the sheep, well then that's ok!

He'll go down in history as someone who could really give an honest assessment of what it's like to have sex with a partner who was hung like a horse.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but it kind of blows my mind that the farm was operated as a horsey brothel.

There's a great entry about a guy named Michael Bessigano.

"While in jail, he would sleep under his cot, paint cat-like stripes on his body and make drawings referring to himself as "master of cats."

WHen that story first broke a few years ago, a couple websites had pictures of this guy. I SO regret not saving them. I can't find them online anywhere.
