Protecting the Innocent.

The mind boggles.

It is ‘normal’ procedure for newspapers to withhold identifying ‘victims’ of sexual crimes, especially kids, but the chaps in the UK Room bar think this has taken it a bit far.

Pixilating a picture is supposedly done to cause little or no embarrassment, but I bet the sub-editor of the Metro is a little red-faced.

Picture Posed by a Model

Did he/she not know that goats recognise one another by their ears?

The 'model' will never be able to show her ears in the field again.

There is no mention of police investigations of whether consent was sought or given either.

Robert Newman has been banned from every farm in the UK.
 
A man who admitted having sex with a goat has been banned from every farm in the country.
 
Robert Newman has also been told he must stay indoors after dark until his sentencing hearing next month.
 
The 23-year-old had been due to stand trial but at the last minute changed his plea to guilty at north-west Wiltshire magistrates court in Chippenham, admitting one count of an act of sexual penetration on the animal.
 
He will now be sentenced on September 12, and until then, Newman, of Devizes, Wiltshire, must abide a curfew of between 7pm and 7am, as well as stay away from all farms.

No mention of how the police intend to monitor every farm in Britain. And what about before 7pm?

Peter H was agog:

Those ears really interest me!

Actually the Magistrates comments remind me of the father of a girl friend from my student days. He always demanded that we returned from any night out by 10 pm. Apparently "naughty" things happened after that time with unspeakable results.  

Actually it suited me - short term accommodation was cheaper in the afternoon and the quality of the afternoon dictated the quality of the restaurant (and meal) before fronting up to "Daddy".  

The consequence was that I always had a most restful night sleeping the sleep of the just, the righteous and the satisfied. I saved enough for a small but exotic sports car - just under $2K in those days.

I also watched in great amusement as the younger sister was refused permission to go out with her boyfriend who owned a panel van with a mattress in the back. It was tricked up a real treat. Instead "Daddy" insisted they take "mummy's" car (with the layback seats).

I don't think "Daddy" had any idea at just what his own efforts at procreation had achieved! They were very pretty girls and enthusiastically co-operative.

A drink for Peter.  And for the model goat.
