You are assuming that his bestiality is a result of limited options (like inmate homosexuality), and that he would "trade up" given the occasion, as opposed to actually liking to have sex with sheep. I assumed the latter. Unless we know more about the guy, there is no way to know for sure.
Yeah, why take a chance. If someone assaults someone, I think its logical to assume they will eventually kill someone. After all, if you are a pervert, you'll rape little kids and if you are violent you will kill someone.
I do agree that this guy shouldn't be on a sex offender list...The reason for the sex offender list is to make people (with kids) aware of the offender.
So, why not have a beastiality list to make pet owners aware of this offender? Totally agreed! Even with other crimes.
You stole my thunder! I was going to suggest a 'sheep molesters' list and that when this guy moves back into a rural setting that every sheep must be notified that he's in the area.....
This reminds me of the story of the police officer who got a call about a guy screwing a pumpkin in a field. When the officer approached the obviously drunk perp and asked him what he was doing, the guy responded "Is it midnight already?"
I think "uttering and publishing" has to do with threats.
