A member of the Canadian Forces has been charged with bestiality after being arrested by police this past week.
On September 10, 2012, Brandon RCMP Detachment received a complaint that a man had solicited a female through a dating website to participate in acts of bestiality. On September 28, following an investigation and with the assistance of the Canadian Forces Military Police, a search warrant was executed at the man’s home near Brandon where computers were seized.
RCMP report that a 31-year-old man has been arrested and identified as a current member of Canadian Forces Base Shilo.
Police say that the man has since been charged with bestiality, procuring, and circulating obscene matter under the Criminal Code. He was released on strict conditions pending a court appearance at a later date.
The investigation continues.
