QUOTE Mich. Man Sentenced in Sheep Abuse Case BATTLE CREEK, Mich. - A man who pleaded no contest to a sodomy charge involving a sheep says he should not have to register as a sex offender. Jeffrey S. Haynes said the state registry is intended to keep track of people who have committed crimes against humans. But Calhoun County Circuit Court Judge Conrad Sindt told Haynes at his sentencing hearing that once he is released from prison, he must register with the Michigan State Police Public Sex Offender Registry. Haynes, 42, of Battle Creek, was sentenced Monday to 2 1/2 years to 20 years in prison. He entered the plea in January. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt but is treated as such for sentencing purposes. Tamara Towns, an assistant prosecutor for the county, argued that Haynes should be ordered to register as a sex offender because once out of prison, he could prey on children or vulnerable adults. Haynes said he is not a violent person and would not assault children. "The prosecutor is being real hard on me for what I did," he said. "But I should not be treated as a child molester." A telephone call seeking comment was left Tuesday at the Marshall office of defense attorney John B. Sullivan. Police said Haynes had sex with a sheep at a Bedford Township farm on Jan. 26, 2005. The animal's owner caught him on the property and the sheep was found injured. Haynes was arrested in June after a DNA sample taken from the animal matched Haynes' genetic material. Haynes has prior convictions for burglary, home invasion and uttering and publishing, and was on parole for burglary at the time of the sex crime. first of all...eww that's disgusting  second, i think he should have to register as a sex offender. if he's going to do that to an animal, why not a human someday? |

It's a pretty huge leap to go from assaulting a sheep to assaulting a human. I don't think the man should have to register as a sex offender—as he said, the law is meant to protect humans, not…well, sheep.

Isn't this old news?
Or am I thinking of another case like this from Michigan. I don't live that far away from Michigan so I hear what's going on there and a little less than a year ago a man had to go to jail for trying to sleep with a sheep. Maybe he should register as a sheep offender. |
