... does this happen. I'm ashamed to say I live in this county. But damn... I about laughed my arse off when I read this.

Scott Patrick Darrow, 43, of Towanda, faces a preliminary hearing at 1:15 p.m. July 26 before Magisterial District Judge Jonathan Wilcox of Troy on charges of cruelty to animals and burglary for an incident around 12:30 a.m. June 7 in Leroy Township, according to court papers.

The papers note that he had inappropriate contact with a young cow.Darrow's unsecure bail was set at $45,000 and his bail release was on the condition that he is prohibited to have contact with farm animals, Wilcox said.

If you think this is a joke... here is the link to my local newspaper:

Well unfortunately a very similar thing happened here in Ouachita Parish. Ha this was the joke of the area for quite a while! I never did hear how poor P-pie turned out! Here's the story.

Police accuse man of crime against pig

Ouachita Parish Sheriff deputies arrested a West Monroe man for committing a crime against nature Monday night.

Deputies arrested Austin Gullette, 45, 4266 Jonesboro Road, West Monroe, for allegedly engaging in sexual intercourse with a pig.

Gullette's sister, owner of the pig, said she caught her brother in the act. She said she walked outside because she heard squealing and discovered her brother with one of her three pigs.

When the witness confronted her brother, she said he took off running into the woods.

Deputies left the pig, a 125-pound Vietnamese potbelly, in the care of the owner, who said someone would come out to her residence to see about the animal.

"I'm embarrassed that this is my brother," she said. "I've never in my life seen anyone do this to a harmless little animal."

Maj. Royce Toney, with the OPSO, agreed that the event was a rare incident.

"In the 29 years we've been here, we've never heard of anyone committing a crime against nature with a pig," Toney said.

However, Toney said similar incidents with dogs, donkeys and sheep have been reported.

The owner said her pig, which she fondly refers to as "P-pie," is hiding because she's scared.

Although, Gullette didn't admit to the offense, Royce said the eyewitness and physical evidence were enough to make an arrest.

A crime against nature is punishable by a $2,000 fine or five years in prison.

Gullette was booked into Ouachita Correctional Center. Bond had not been set.

Holy cow....and pig! That is terrible! Some people are just nasty and poor raising. I've seen the product daddy and daughter, brother and sister and cousin with cousin.....not pretty kids or with some mental issue. It is sad really. Not to be offending to anyone, my family moved here, I wasn't born here! I was born in GA.
