There’s not too much going on during the long winter in Herkimer County, New York—a largely rural, forest-filled region of upstate New York.
Really, though, the lack of local activities is no excuse for the allegations against two area men charged who stand accused of sexually abusing a farmer’s cows.
The two men are Michael Jones, 35, and Reid Fontaine, 31, reports CNY Central. They now each face a single misdemeanor charge of sexual misconduct, a misdemeanor.
The unidentified farmer first realized something was amiss when a bunch of his cows were acting skittishly and failing to produce milk normally. So, he set up a surveillance camera in his barn to see if he could determine what was happening when he wasn’t around.
Upon viewing the surveillance tape, the farmer saw at least one human being having sex with his cattle.
In a fairly interesting twist, police say Jones had agreed to hold a camera and capture the action as Fontaine gamely attempted to mount several cows.
After their arrests, Jones and Fontaine were released with appearance tickets, notes the Observer-Dispatch.
