Buckle up, this is a weird one. Cue the banjos in the distance.
On Feb. 21, a motorist called 911 to report they had witnessed a man having sex with a dead deer on the side of Phillip Stone Way in Central City. Police went to investigate the disturbing report and found a man near the scene with bloody hands and his pants around his knees.
Officers also observed unspecified fluid on his facial hair, deer fur stuck to the bottom of his hoodie, and blood stains on his boxers. The man, identified as Allen Lynne Osborne, a 32-year-old from Owensboro, was arrested within 30 minutes.
Once back at the Muhlenberg County Jail, police also discovered that Osbourne had blood and deer fur stuck to his genitals.
“This is a first for me—and I’ve been here for 21 years,” Central City Police Chief Jason Lindsey told Oxygen.
Osborne faces a felony charge for sexual crimes against animals. His bail is currently set at $5,000, and, according to The Independent, he pleaded not guilty on Monday morning. If convicted, he could face a sentence of one to five years in prison.
We’re all for mounting taxidermy on your walls of animals you’ve harvested, but please refrain from mounting roadkill, in any way, shape, or form. Dead deer surely don’t deserve that.
