Defendants Rice and Myers (case # 99-25182) allegedly forced at least six dogs in their possession to have sex with them over a period of several months, perhaps longer. The dogs were rescued and taken to Plumas County Animal Control and were treated for internal injuries and infections.
DNA present in their bodies, as well as confessions by both men to the activities, constitute air tight cases against both men. And, the defendants freely discuss their preference for bestiality over the Internet, are into violent pornography and have stated that after their trial, they will move to a state where bestiality is not against the law.
Rice and Myers have each been charged with four felony counts of cruelty to animals and eight counts of misdemeanor sexual assault. Under Sheriff Terry Bergstrand and Plumas County Animal Control officials want Rice and Myers charged and convicted on all counts. However, informed sources within law enforcement believe that the District Attorney plans to enter into a plea bargain with the defendants and the case may never go to a jury. Those sources say that the DA just wants them to get out of the area. References | ASAIRS | | Animal's Hope Petition Team | | case # 99-25182 404 |
