Man accused of having sex with dog, posting video to web

A man who lives in the Manassas area is charged in connection to a bestiality case. 

Here’s more in a press release from Prince William police: 

Distribution of Obscene Material | Crimes against Nature-Cruelty to Animals  – In January of 2015, Prince William County detectives began an investigation into an alleged bestiality complaint involving the accused who resides in the 11200 block of Chatterly Lp in Manassas (20109).

The investigation revealed that between April of 2013 and December of 2014, the accused conspired with an adult woman through in-person and online conversations to perform sexual acts on a male dog, identified as a Lab mix belonging to the accused.

During those encounters, the accused arranged a meeting in another jurisdiction where these acts were committed and recorded. After the acts were completed, the accused used a computer at his residence to download the material which was then distributed over the internet. Through the investigation, detectives identified a second woman as also having knowledge of the acts committed.

The accused was originally arrested on January 29th in connection to this active investigation. At that time, the accused attempted sexual contact with a female dog, identified as a Husky/Lab mix, also owned by the accused.

Around the same time, the accused also filmed other acts with animals committed in other jurisdictions and distributed them over the internet from a computer at his home. A search warrant was obtained and executed at the home at that time.

As a result of the search, evidence and both dogs were located in the residence. The dogs were seized and examined by a veterinarian. Both currently remain in police custody at the animal shelter. As the investigation continued, additional charges relating to the conspiracy were later obtained on February 18th. This investigation remains active and is continuing.
