If He Could Talk To The Animals...

Or at least have a smoke afterwards...

A 24-year-old Melbourne man accused of having sex with dogs, goats and horses has failed to have details of the case suppressed.

Steven Whittam, of Langwarrin, faces 19 charges of bestiality over incidents which allegedly took place between January 2001 and June 2006 in suburbs across Melbourne's south-east.

Mr Whittam's lawyer Rod Willcox applied to suppress details of the case from the media in Frankston Magistrates' Court today, arguing the defendant had a severe psychiatric disorder.

Gee, yuh think?

Whittam, who did not appear in court for today's hearing, remains on bail.

He has not entered a plea.

Probably the only animal he missed.

I would never do such a thing.

At least not often.

How did I know before clicking that the very first comment would have my name in it?

Because we all know your dirty secrets, Ken.

I knew it wasn't you, Ken, I know that you're older than the schlepp on trial.

But I had to wonder if you had relatives in Australia.

No wonder the koalas are swinging the other door.
