Alaska and Florida consider bans on bestiality
JUNEAU, Alaska – It’s a subject that can cause nervous snickering, a little uneasiness and even a few bad jokes.But many in the southeast Alaska community of Klawock, population 800, weren’t laughing last April after a 26-year-old registered sex offender was accused of molesting a local family’s pet dog.
The man was spotted by a local woman coaxing the Labrador retriever into the woods near a ball field. There he allegedly tied it to a tree, taped its muzzle shut with duct tape and had sex with it, witnesses told police at the time.
The man had been twice convicted of raping a young boy and more recently had served probation for assault after lunging at a child.
