Bizarre Limerick Dog Sex case

Oracle

This is the most incredible legal case, involving sex, I've read, probably ever.

A Limerick man who arranged for his dog to have sexual intercourse, with a woman he met over the internet, ended up being charged and convicted for buggery. His sentence has just been deferred. In the case, the woman involved, died in hospital, a few hours after the sexual intercourse. However they can't determine the exact cause of the woman’s death.
It all sounds too bizarre to be true, but it is ...

The woman, a 43-year-old separated mother from Co Limerick, died in hospital several hours after allegedly having sex with the animal in the man's home.

Sean McDonnell, 58, with an address at Rathmore, Churchill Meadows, Raheen in Limerick, pleaded guilty to one count of buggery with an animal on 7 October 2008.

Limerick Circuit Court heard that although semen swabs taken from the dog were matched to DNA found on the woman's body, no exact cause of death could be confirmed.

There's another very important issue raised by this case. Why should anyone be charged with anything when the sexual encounter was reportedly, consensual and mutually arranged, albeit one that had an unfortunate outcome.

Also if the genders had been reversed, and the man had gone to the woman’s house, and the dog had sex with him, and the man subsequently died. Would the DPP (Director of Public Prosecutions) have taken a case against the woman for buggery?

I'm not sure if you could say it was consensual for the dog. I think that's the whole basis for the law against bestiality, although to be honest I couldn't be certain. Tis a strange one.

I think I'll let one of the other mods search for "sex with dogs" and merge the threads.

I'm not being rude or anything but the dog must have gotten an erection to have sex with the dog?:p

One could only imagine the foreplay:p

Was just reading about buggery from a legal point of view. It's defined under British law as either:

• anal intercourse by a man with a man or woman
• vaginal intercourse by either a man or a woman with an animal

Which seems to imply that if the dog had had anal sex with the woman then there may not have been any crime committed.

Interesting law!

The man involved has been charged with "buggery with a dog"; but my reading of it was that he was just an enthusiastic bystander?

I thought it was well established she died from an allergic reaction to dog semen. I'm guessing he could be charged with animal cruelty or something. Makes me wonder how much of it went/is going on unnoticed. Then again I suppose it's classic Rule 34.

Bestially laws makes having sex with animals illegal, I can't fathom out why it shouldn't be illegal. Secondly, are you sure that the dog ever consented? Just because the dog went over to have sex doesn't mean anything.

Having sex with animals, whether illegal or not, is disgusting and vile

The thing with the man getting the dog to have sex with should be prosecuted and should be illegal, whether the dog "consented" or not

The OP didn't search that’s why he posted despite there being another 6 "Limerick Dog Sex" threads.

Yes, http://www.rte.ie/news/2012/1102/dog-sex-limerick.html

Here's another point ... leaving the sex out of it completely, and consider this ....

I invite you to my place for peanut butter sandwiches. You love peanut butter, accept my invitation, and we agree to meet at my place to eat sandwiches. You arrive and we both listen to music and have peanut butter sandwiches. Everything goes fine, you go back home ....

... but then a few hours afterwards you become very ill and have to be taken to hospital. Unknown to you, and to me, you have developed a severe allergy to peanuts. Turns out your allergic reaction was so severe, despite the best efforts of the hospital, you died.

Should I then be charged with manslaughter or murder, because what you did during your visit to my house, caused your death?

How big is a dog's knob then?

If it was a horse, or something hung like a donkey then fair enough, but dogs aren't that well endowed ate they?

Except eating peanut butter is not illegal. Sexually abusing animals for your own gratification, thankfully, is. Your peanut butter example is completely meaningless.

Franticfrank

Yeah it was a pretty vile incident alright. The German Shepard literally banged the poor woman to death. Correct that she died from an allergic reaction - I read somewhere it was a very similar reaction to a peanut allergy.

Greenmachine

What exactly is the offence he being charged with. Living off the proceed of doggy prostitution?

No its not because the women most likely died of an allergic reaction to the dogs semen. Why should the man be prosecuted he didn't have sex with the dog? He merely facilitated the encounter, which was mutually agreed.

RikkFlair

Maybe the poor woman thought she was gonna be rodgered by a shepherd from Germany, rather than an actual German Shepherd.

Given that the woman (supposedly) died from a reaction with the dog's semen, I'll go out on a limb here and guess the dog didn't have much of a problem with this abuse.

I'm guessing. I have no knowledge of this subject.

The encounter which was in itself an illegal act, and "mutually agreed" doesn't mean squat.

A better comparison would be Person A contacting paedophile B over the internet so that B could come round and abuse a child in Person A's care. Do you think just because Person A facilitated the encounter, and it was mutually agreed Person A shouldn't be charged?

Clearly. You do now that humans can often exhibit signs of sexual arousal while being raped too right? Does that make it ok?
