Pervert caught having sex with pig
Metro Last updated at 00:00am on 15.08.03A man has been arrested after having sex with a pig.
Police arrived within ten minutes of receiving a 999 call and arrested the 72-year-old, who was naked from the waist down.
Lynne Bennett, manager of Stepping Stones Farm in Stepney, East London, said the man appeared to have deliberately targeted their most passive pig.
She added: 'If he'd picked on one of the others, he would have been in serious trouble.
'They would have done him some damage.'
Police bailed the offender until next month and a vet gave the pig a clean bill of health.

Am I missing something? What is the "misunderstanding"? The man was raping a defenseless piggy! That's way perverted, IMO. Nothing wrong with stating the obvious, is there? I might have a cultural bias in how stories of crimes are reported. I'm in tabloid America.

The use of the word pervert is highly prejudicial. It is a strange case but the wording in this is unfair.

That's the most convincing argument for vegetarianism that I've ever read.

I'm intending to travel down to Stepney this week, I don't suppose the same pig is still at the farm by any chance?
