FUN NEWS

Not in very `Dear' taste
Bryan James Hathaway, 20, of Superior, WI, received probation sentence after being convicted for having sexual contact with a deer carcass. Judge Michael Lucci quoted this behavior as very "disturbing" to the public and court. Hathaway will be "evaluated as a sex offender" and will receive treatment at Institute for Psychological and Sexual Health in Duluth, MI. Unfortunately it is not his first brush with dead animal nook. In April 2005, he received an 18-month sentence and two years of extended supervision for killing a horse with the intention of having sex with it. He has also received six years of probation for taking and driving a vehicle without the owner's consent, reports Associated Press.
