Douglas Spink, Ex-Cocaine Smuggler, Charged With Running Bestiality Farm for Tourists
Edited on Sat Apr-17-10 05:27 PM by Ian David
Douglas Spink is not your typical criminal. While other, less ambitious lawbreakers tend to stick with one felonious field of study, Spink, a former drug smuggler now accused of running a bestiality farm for tourists, prefers to double-major.

Spink made his fortune in his early 20's selling fitness catalogues to gyms. As a 2005 story in The Vancouver Province described him, Spink is "a fear-loving adrenaline junkie fond of snowboarding, rock climbing and BASE jumping" who also ran a dog-breeding business in Oregon.

Don't want to read about mice covered in lube? Then stop reading now.

Spink first got into trouble five years ago when police found $42 million in cocaine in his Chevy Tahoe. In a drug-trafficking case that would eventually besmirch two of Seattle's most well-regarded lawyers, Spink only served three years, a light sentence he managed to swing because he cooperated with authorities.

His latest run-in came this week, when Whatcom County sheriffs raided his compound near the Canadian border and discovered video of a British tourist having sex with multiple dogs.

Douglas Spink Arrested In BESTIALITY Case: Mice In Vaseline, Dogs, Horses

<snip>

Under Washington law, it's illegal to assist others in engaging in bestiality -- and breaking any state law would be a violation of Spink's release, punishable by up to five years in prison.

Authorities searched his farm Wednesday after prosecutors received a tip from a public defender's office in Tennessee. The office reported that Spink had been calling them incessantly about a jailed defendant in a bestiality case in Tennessee.

That man, James Michael Tait, had previously admitted filming a man having sex with a horse in Enumclaw, Wash., in 2005. The man Tait filmed died of internal injuries suffered during the incident. He received a minor sentence in the case because Washington had relatively weak bestiality laws at the time.

It's not immediately clear why Spink was calling Tennessee about the Tait case.

2. WTF?
This reads like an onion article. Apparently it's for real, but I can't get past the mouse thing. I always thought that was an urban legend.

Check out this article from 2008: http://abcnews.go.com/US/AmazingAnimals/story?id=4911317&page=1
Trainer Frets Over Fate of Missing Stud
...
The trainer, a convicted drug felon, claims the theft was an inside job, but the local sheriff's office has not yet determined whether a crime was committed and even suggested it might know the location of the horse.

Capone I, a 12-year-old black Holsteiner whose valuable seed has already produced three foal crops, was reported missing after Douglas Spink, the horse's trainer, left the animal unattended for roughly three hours. Handlers arrived later in the afternoon to find the prized stud gone.
...
Spink described an intense relationship with Capone, whom he met nine years ago, calling him more than just a horse or an asset. He said he cannot help but fear that the animal has been injured or killed.

6. Some one must have been afraid the horse would talk.

:rofl:


A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mister Ed.

Go right to the source and ask the horse
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse.
He's always on a steady course.
Talk to Mister Ed.

People yakkity yak a streak and waste your time of day
But Mr. Ed will never speak unless he has something to say

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And this one'll talk 'til his voice is hoarse.
You never heard of a talking horse?

Well listen to this: "I'm Mister Ed."
