No, none of the cows are shown in these mug shots, but the guy did get off:
A New Jersey judge has dismissed animal cruelty charges against a cop accused of committing a sex act with young cows, saying a grand jury had no way of knowing whether the animals were “tormented.” Moorestown police officer Robert Melia, who is currently suspended, allegedly engaged in oral sex acts with five calves in Southampton in 2006. Since New Jersey currently has no law explicitly banning such an act, prosecutors in Burlington county brought animal cruelty charges against Melia, the Philadelphia Daily News reports. Judge Morely said it was questionable that Melia’s acts, though “disgusting,” constituted animal cruelty.
Burlington County assistant prosecutor Gevin Moran didn’t agree. “I think any reasonable juror could infer that a man’s penis in the mouth of a calf is torment.” But Melia’s lawyer, countering with the impeccable heterosexual logic, pointed out that as long as the calves in question don’t complain then everything’s copacetic. The judge agreed.
This is where the second mug shot comes in because they’re not ready to release Melia into greener pastures just yet. He and his girlfriend, Heather Lewis, are still being held on charges of sexually assaulting three girls over a five year period. After one of the girls reported the incident to her stepfather, authorities investigated and found videos on Melia’s computer which not only depicted him having sex with one of the girls, but also the romantic interludes with the buxom bovines as well. Lewis is also being accused of sexually assaulting an underage (human) male.
There’s more heterosexual menace here and in our report, “The Heterosexual Agenda, Exposing the Myths.”

In this original BTB Investigation, we unveil the tragic story of Kirk Murphy, a four-year-old boy who was treated for “cross-gender disturbance” in 1970 by a young grad student by the name of George Rekers. This story is a stark reminder that there are severe and damaging consequences when therapists try to ensure that boys will be boys.
When we first reported on three American anti-gay activists traveling to Kampala for a three-day conference, we had no idea that it would be the first report of a long string of events leading to a proposal to institute the death penalty for LGBT people. But that is exactly what happened. In this report, we review our collection of more than 500 posts to tell the story of one nation’s embrace of hatred toward gay people. This report will be updated continuously as events continue to unfold. Check here for the latest updates.
In 2005, the Southern Poverty Law Center wrote that “[Paul] Cameron’s ‘science’ echoes Nazi Germany.” What the SPLC didn”t know was Cameron doesn’t just “echo” Nazi Germany. He quoted extensively from one of the Final Solution’s architects. This puts his fascination with quarantines, mandatory tattoos, and extermination being a “plausible idea” in a whole new and deeply disturbing light.
On February 10, I attended an all-day “Love Won Out” ex-gay conference in Phoenix, put on by Focus on the Family and Exodus International.

Anti-gay activists often charge that gay men and women pose a threat to children. In this report, we explore the supposed connection between homosexuality and child sexual abuse, the conclusions reached by the most knowledgeable professionals in the field, and how anti-gay activists continue to ignore their findings. This has tremendous consequences, not just for gay men and women, but more importantly for the safety of all our children.
Anti-gay activists often cite the “Dutch Study” to claim that gay unions last only about 1½ years and that the these men have an average of eight additional partners per year outside of their steady relationship. In this report, we will take you step by step into the study to see whether the claims are true.
Tony Perkins’ Family Research Council submitted an Amicus Brief to the Maryland Court of Appeals as that court prepared to consider the issue of gay marriage. We examine just one small section of that brief to reveal the junk science and fraudulent claims of the Family “Research” Council.
The FBI’s annual Hate Crime Statistics aren’t as complete as they ought to be, and their report for 2004 was no exception. In fact, their most recent report has quite a few glaring holes. Holes big enough for Daniel Fetty to fall through.

Reminds me of an incident related by a friend who was once an EMT. This involved a young novitiate at a monastery, the other end of an adult cow and a fire hose being required to extricate the misguided fellow.

Yikes!!!
I’ve been thinking . . . You know, NOM is headquartered in Princeton, NJ, which is only a short drive from Moorestown. And given that guy’s proclivity for anything bovine, I’m wondering if Maggie Gallagher-Srivastav has had to obtain a restraining order against him.

@R.Rush: I don’t think MaggieMoo needs to worry. He seems to prefer only the young heifers.

Nah it’s still all our fault for this..
Why? Because they probably watched some bestiality porn before this, and all porn is gay, so it made them gay, and so now they’re a gay menace. *roll eyes*

A while back, on another blog site, there was a guy posting comments who claimed he was into bestiality, and insisted that animals can, in fact, indicate consent. I couldn’t figure out if he was serious or simply making up sh*t just to rattle people and get a reaction. Anyone who could seriously believe that has parts on order.
In any case, after looking at THIS guy, I’m pretty sure the cows could do better.
On a more serious note, the pedophilia charge is pretty reprehensible, and the fact that he was also into other freaky sh*t shouldn’t distract us from what this guy REALLY belongs in jail for. Forget about the crazy, let’s focus on the evil.

I will not make any jokes punning on the word “beef,” or this giving new meaning to the phrase “’til the cows come home”, or….
I hope those poor (human) kids that they violated find the justice they need and deserve.

As an interesting tidbit on the old Arizona “crime against nature” statute (ARS 13-1411), civil rights to LGBT individuals were almost always based on the fact that “what we did in bed was illegal,” although with two exceptions (one in 1946 and one in 1976) ALL annotations for this statute concerned acts between human-animal or heterosexual rape.
Now, in relation to this case, those poor cows, and that poor girl. :-(

Oh my, I certainly hope none of those calves were male. That would have certainly raised eyebrows and and left the officer open to sodomy charges.

J. Varnedoe, it doesn’t matter if the calves were male or female, because all barnyard sex is gay sex. It’s just like porn in that regard.

Why does the article say: “No, none of the cows are shown in these mug shots, but the guy did get off”. It looks to me there are two cows in the mug shots.
