MAN ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY ASSAULTING SHEEP

'Bizarre' Attacks Occur at High School Pen

Aug. 4, 1999

 

By Valerie Kalfrin

LAKESIDE, Calif. (APBnews.com) -- Investigators staking out a sheep pen where

two animals died of sexual assault said today they caught a man molesting a

ewe.

James Donald Ray, 38, is in custody on a probation violation pending charges

of cruelty to animals and sexually assaulting animals for the attacks at the

El Capitan High School pen. The livestock was being raised by students in the

school's Future Farmers of America program, officials said.

" It's pretty bizarre, " San Diego County Sheriff's Department spokesman Lt.

Ron Van Raaphorst said.

Police began staking out the school's open-air pens in July, after sheep that

died May 31 and July 4 " were discovered to have been sexually assaulted, "

officials said.

Caught in the act

Detectives arrested Ray, an unemployed county resident who is not affiliated

with the school, Saturday after he allegedly climbed into a pen and began

having sex with one of the 3-foot-tall animals.

San Diego County District Attorney's Office spokeswoman Gayle Falkenthal said

one of two prosecutors who deals with agricultural crimes will likely handle

the case.

" He's had similar cases, one recently involving a horse, " she said.

'Really disturbing'

Although this rural area about 13 miles east of San Diego has seen its share

of agricultural crimes, from palm tree theft to cattle rustling, Falkenthal

said the sheep attacks gave investigators pause.

" They didn't know exactly what was going on, " she said. " They were concerned

that this activity might escalate toward some kind of violence toward the

high school students. "

Today, students and faculty were still struggling to come to grips with the

incidents, Principal Nancy Peterson said.

" It's really disturbing to the students because they work with these animals

every day, and they hate to see them abused, " she told APBnews.com. " This is

hard for them to understand -- it's hard for anyone to understand. "
