Just when you thought bestiality couldn’t get any ickier, it does â thanks to a man who is charged with having sex with a dead dog, in full view of a day care centre.

Ronald Kuch, a 44-year-old from Michigan, is charged with ‘crimes against nature’ after allegedly being seen engaging in sexual acts with the dog corpse, which had been dead for four or five days.

Police had already been called by day centre staff to remove the dead dog, which had been hit by a car several days before. But before police could arrive, Kuch allegedly turned up, and began getting his freak on with the canine cadaver. As luck would have it, that’s when the police turned up.

Police say the sexual acts were witnessed not only by one of their officers, but by staff at the day care centre in Saginaw, Michigan.

When police tried to arrest him, he reportedly shoved an officer aside and ran away. He was eventually tracked down and discovered hiding in the attic of a nearby house â which, police say, belonged to his girlfriend.

Just to make this perfectly lovely story even more charming, police say that they have determined the dead dog had also belonged to his girlfriend. No word on whether he’d been grooming the dog before the incident, though.

If Kuch is convicted, he could face up to 15 years in prison, reports the Associated Press.
