Man with bizarre horse fetish busted twice in 24 hours
A UK man with a sick obsession for publicly masturbating near horses has been arrested twice within 24 hours for the same lewd offense, a report said.
Malcolm Downes, 61, who has a “long, long history” of pleasuring himself in front of the mammals, was arrested on Feb. 18 after he was spotted touching himself in a field in the city of Hull, England, Metro UK reported.
A witness initially thought that Downes was urinating but it “soon became clear he was in fact masturbating,” prosecutor Neil Coxon said, according to the news outlet.
“This activity went on for three or four minutes. His penis was exposed for about 10 minutes,” Coxon said.
When police grilled Downes about the illicit act, he told detectives: “I was sat on a bench. I was feeling sexy so I started to…”
Downes told cops he knew what he was doing was wrong, according to the news site.
The suspect was then released on bail after saying he had been planning to see his doctor for libido-suppressing drugs.
But within 24 hours, Downes could not resist his urges and was back at the same field, where he was caught by an off-duty cop.
The offender ultimately was jailed for eight months.
Downes admitted he has a problem, but that he got a thrill out of pleasuring himself, according to Metro UK.
According to the news outlet, Downes, who recently reconnected with his family after being exiled, had 12 similar busts on his record.
He also had nine breaches of an antisocial behavior order for masturbating in public, the news site reported.
The court order had barred Downes from entering any field, stable or area that may have equine animals across the northern English county of Humberside.
“The defendant is very disappointed to be back before the courts again for precisely the same sort of behavior he’s been convicted of in the past,” Downes’ lawyer, Stephen Robinson, told a judge.
“The defendant was of the view he’d been doing quite well,” Robinson said.
Robinson added: “He can’t really explain it. He said he felt he was starting to conquer his demons. He believes this was some sort of lapse he can’t explain. He is, he insists, very sorry for his actions.”
Judge David Tremberg told Downes: “You know you are doing wrong, but you appear either unable or unwilling to stop yourself.”
