   (KUTV) — A patrolman from Louisiana is accused of sexually   
   abusing a police dog and over 20,000 people have signed a   
   petition for his prosecution.   
      
   According to a statement released from In Defense of Animals, an   
   international organization that protects animals, Terry Yetman   
   is set to appear in court on April 23.   
      
   The organization wants Yetman to get the maximum penalties.   
      
   “Thousands of In Defense of Animals supporters were moved by   
   this horrific case and want to see justice done,” Doll Stanley,   
   campaign director for In Defense of Animals, said. “A healthy   
   society protects its innocents: vulnerable children, animals,   
   elderly citizens. Sexual predators must be made to fear the loss   
   of freedom and a stinging financial impact. We call on District   
   Attorney Marvin Schuyler to take zero tolerance stance on   
   bestiality and prosecute Yetman to the fullest if he is found   
   guilty.”   
      
   In August 2018, the Louisiana State Police Special Victims Unit   
   launched an investigation into Yetman's alleged perverse animal   
   abuse. Officials discovered electronic evidence of the once   
   decorated Domestic Task Force officer's acts of bestiality with   
   a retired police dog.   
      
   Yetman turned himself in and was booked into the Bossier County   
   Maximum Correctional Facility. He was charged with 20 felony   
   counts of performing sexual acts with an animal and 24 counts of   
   filming the acts. His bond was set at $350,000 according to the   
   press release.   
      
   On Jan. 27, Yetman appeared in court. His attorney was granted a   
   continuance. The trial date has not been set yet and Yetman   
   remains behind bars.   
      
   Louisiana state criminal code 89 Crime Against Nature carries a   
   first offense penalty of a maximum $2,000 fine and/or a five-   
   year prison sentence, psychological evaulation and no contact   
   with animals for a minimum of five years, according to the press   
   release.   
      
   A second offense has a penalty of a maximum $25,000 fine and a   
   maximum prison sentence of 10 years.
