Sheep Can't Testify in Sex Case

(Haaksbergen, The Netherlands) A farmer alerted police after catching a man having sex with a sheep.

But the case was thrown out of court as the sheep couldn't take to the stand to testify that it didn't want to have sex and had suffered emotional stress.

Under Dutch law, bestiality is not a crime unless it can be proved the animal didn't want to have sex.

"Short of putting the sheep in the dock, at the moment these perverts cannot be prosecuted," animal rights campaigner Jos van Huisen said.

Apparently, all the man had to do was claim that the sheep wanted to have sex.

Sometimes I think the progressive Dutch are inching away from civilization.
