It’s a terrible day to be literate, because it means we have to read about this story of a Sheffield couple that routinely had sex with their pet pug after becoming obsessed with bestiality.

Graham Marshall, 39, encouraged Paige Reaney, 33, to have intercourse with Charlie, their pet pug, as it was part of a ‘fantasy’ that he had after watching someone have sex with a dog when he was younger. However, Reaney would also have sex with the pug while she was alone (under Marshall’s instruction).

The couple’s offending was only uncovered after police raided their home following a tip-off that Graham Marshall was in possession of child abuse images. Sure enough, he was, but police also discovered footage he had taken of Reaney engaging in multiple sexual acts with their pet pug, over which Marshall provided commentary such as “so, so, f****** hot, that’s amazing.”

Aside from that, police also uncovered hidden camera footage of two adult women using a toilet that Marshall had covertly filmed in a bathroom – neither of whom were Reaney.

Marshall has now been jailed for five-and-a-half years, which seems fairly light for someone who’s been caught with both child abuse images and making his own bestiality p0rn, in addition to the charges for voyeurism.

But if you think he got off lightly, Reaney has avoided prison altogether; being handed a 9-month sentence which has been suspended for 2 years. As long as she doesn’t commit any crimes in the next 2 years (sh@gging pugs or otherwise), she’ll have got off scot-free.

Judge Jeremy Richardson KC told the couple during sentencing:

‘The circumstances of this case are extremely disturbing. In a professional life in the law covering 45 years, I thought I had encountered most acts of depravity.

‘This case is perhaps the worse example of a case of its kind that I have ever come across.’

‘You have wallowed in the swamp of sexual depravity repeatedly, and over a long period.’

Too bad the sentencing doesn’t reflect the judge’s harsh words there, but I guess the real punishment for these two is that their friends, families, neighbours, colleagues, and everyone else will know about their disgusting behaviour. The couple also have two kids who will now forever have to live with the stigma of what their parents have done.

No word on how the poor pet pug Charlie is doing, but let’s hope he’s on the road to recovery following what must’ve been a truly distressing and traumatic experience, essentially being r@ped by these two scumbags repeatedly. Geez, there are truly some sick people about.
