Prosecution of a Douglas County case involving alleged sexual contact with a dead deer may hinge on the legal definition of the word \ufffdanimal.\ufffd
Bryan James Hathaway, 20, of Superior faces a misdemeanor charge of sexual gratification with an animal. He is accused of having sex with a dead deer he saw beside Stinson Avenue on Oct. 11.
A motion filed last week by his attorney, public defender Fredric Anderson, argued that because the deer was dead, it was not considered an animal and the charge should be dismissed.
\ufffdThe statute does not prohibit one from having sex with a carcass,\ufffd Anderson wrote.
