Sheriff says Craigslist facilitates bestiality
The Washington Times ^ | March 16, 2011 | Jerry Seper

America’s self-described toughest sheriff has issued a warning to the CEO of Craigslist saying the popular Internet website is providing a “mechanism to facilitate criminal activity.”

Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s warning to Jim Buckmaster follows the arrest last month in Arizona by Maricopa County Sheriff's Office detectives of two men — one a middle school teacher and the other a handyman — on charges of conspiracy to commit bestiality.

Sheriff Arpaio said an undercover investigation by his office began after detectives became aware that persons in the Phoenix area were using Craigslist to engage in illegal acts with animals. Detectives set up meetings through computer communications where the suspects believed they were meeting animal owners at a hotel.

“I would hope that Mr. Buckmaster takes my advice seriously and looks into our concerns,” Sheriff Arpaio said. “I think it is sad that people would utilize technology to take advantage of animals like this.”

Although bestiality may not be illegal in other states, the sheriff was instrumental in making the offense a crime in Arizona in 2006.

A quick google search shows there are several websites devoted to bestiality.

...when a Chandler or Mesa (don't remember which) senior Fire Department official was caught having sex with a sheep.

Do the companies that provide these guys with cell phones also facilitate beastiality? What are we gonna do about them? How about the manufacturers of the cars they use?

OTOH, the Sheriff was able to nab them BECAUSE of the public CL ads.

So are unsuspecting sheep responding to ads for babysitters on Craigslist, or what?

Sheriff Joe promotes bestiality because his officers patrol around farmlands.

I guess all the other crime problems in Arizona were solved by 2006, leaving the police free to crack down on pig molestation?

This give me serious second thoughts about Arpaio.

I bet he was feeling sheepish after being caught.

Perhaps it was a problem that needed to be dealt with?

"mechanism to facilitate criminal activity.”

So are telephones. So is any communication or socialization technology. So is the bulletin board at a laundromat or the writing on a bathroom stall.
