10/19   Man dies after having sex with a horse:
        http://tinyurl.com/7omhr (Seattle Times)
        \_ I don't understand why the guy's brother wants a harsher
           sentence for Tait.  It doesn't seem like Tait forced the guy to
           take it up the butt from a horse.
           \_ Maybe he's with PETA and is upset the horse was used sexually.
           \_ He was an enabler.
           \_ He is an enabler.
        \_ How is a trespassing charge warranted?  Whose property did Tait
           enter un-invited?
           \_ the neighbor
              \_ Oh, I thought the intercourse happened at the farm.
                 \_ This one was at the neighbor's farm.

Enlarge this photo KEN LAMBERT / THE SEATTLE TIMES A TV cameraman was among those scrutinizing an Enumclaw-area farm July 15 , 2005. Authorities were investigating reports of bestiality after the d eath of a Seattle man. Archive | Videotapes show bestiality, Enumcl aw police say An Enumclaw-area man who authorities say helped run a farm where people h ad sex with animals and where a Seattle man died doing so with a horse was charged with a misdemeanor yesterday. Police began investigating James Tait, 54, and another man who lived at t he rural Southeast King County farm after the Seattle man died of injuri es suffered during intercourse with a horse in the summer, Enumclaw poli ce said. The criminal-trespassing charge stems from a July 2 bestiality session in volving Tait, the 45-year-old Seattle man and a horse in a neighbor's ba rn, charging papers say. According to the King County Medical Examiner's Office, the Seattle man died of acute peritonitis due to perforation of the colon. King County prosecutors say it's the most-severe charge they could file; Washington is one of more than a dozen states that does not outlaw besti ality. "There is no evidence of injury to the animal to support animal-cruelty c harges," said Dan Satterberg, the county prosecutor's chief of staff. When interviewed by The Seattle Times July 15, the horse's owners said th ey had known their neighbors for years. The couple, who asked to have th eir names withheld to protect their privacy, said they were shocked when police showed them a home video of the July 2 incident that investigato rs seized from their neighbor's home. According to the King County Sheriff's Office, which also investigated, t he farm was known in Internet chat rooms as a destination for people who want to have sex with livestock. Authorities didn't learn about the far m until July 2, when a man drove to Enumclaw Community Hospital seeking medical assistance for a companion. Medics wheeled the Seattle man into an examination room and realized he was dead. When hospital workers look ed for the man who had dropped him off, he was gone, Enumclaw police sai d Using the dead man's driver's license to track down relatives and acquain tances, investigators were led to the Enumclaw farm. Because the other man who lived at the farm wasn't there the night the Se attle man died, he wasn't charged with trespassing, Satterberg said. advertising The Seattle man isn't being identified because his family asked that his name not be released. The man's brother said he understands that prosecutors can't file a felon y charge but remains disappointed that Tait wouldn't face more than a ye ar behind bars. Pam Roach, R-Auburn, has said she plans to draft legislation making bestiality illegal in Washington.
