A Minnesota man is charged with having his way with a deer, but he claims it was just venison, the Superior Daily Telegram reports:
Bryan James Hathaway, 20, of Superior faces a misdemeanor charge of sexual gratification with an animal. He is accused of having sex with a dead deer he saw beside Stinson Avenue on Oct. 11.
A motion filed last week by his attorney, public defender Fredric Anderson, argued that because the deer was dead, it was not considered an animal and the charge should be dismissed.
The Smoking Gun has Hathaway's mug shot and a copy of the complaint, which states:
Defining animal to include carcasses would lead to absurd results. At what point of decompose would the carcass cease being an animal? Would picked-over skeletal remains still meet the definition? At death, an animal ceases to be an animal. As Billy Crystal noted in The Princess Bride (1987), "There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead."
The Telegram quotes Judge Michael Lucci, who is considering the motion: "I’m a little surprised this issue hasn’t been tackled before in another case." Yeah, we're sure this sort of thing comes up all the time up there.

Well, look at it this way - attempting to have sex with a live deer could get rather dangerous. Especially if you're gay.
More like MY NOSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! LOL! Can you believe that perv?
Somehow, I don't think The Nuge is gonna write that as the sequel to Kill it and Grill It.
He must have had a big....
While this is too disgusting for words, it may still end up being an interesting chapter in the Judge's memoirs after he's had years to come up with a title.
As this was a ... er ... whitetail, it wouldn't have had antlers.
The decal would only work in Alaska (Caribou) and Sweden (Reindeer) unless I'm mistaken.
Bestial Necrophilia?
Now that is a new one...someone call PETA or Peter Singer.
"No Grandpa, Grandma said to kill it and pluck it!"
So was it a FEMALE dead deer or a MALE dead deer? If it was a male dead deer, then that would be be really sick.
Ya gotta admit he's got those big doe eyes. (Or big eyes for does.) 
The buck stops here.
Now that is a new one...someone call PETA or Peter Singer.
I guess that's what you'd call it. I'm about to gag just thinking about it. LOL
Beastality-necrophelia?
And I thought I'd heard of everything....
Can't imagine that the Supreme Court would have a problem with this. It's none of our business.
Geez.
In Michigan I thought it was weird that they passed a law allowing us to EAT our road kill.
This is a little over the top.
How else are they gonna get through those long, dark winter nights?
He's a real hart breaker.
