A SERIAL animal-sex fiend has begged to be castrated in a bid to get out of jail.

Michael Bessigano, whose victims included a guinea fowl, chicken and Rottweiler, has asked a court to release him if he has monthly jabs of a testosterone-reducing drug.

Letting the 46-year-old perv out early - along with the chemical castration - would be better rehabilitation than more time in prison, claims his lawyer Jennifer Soble.

"Mr. Bessigano's history is unique,” she says in US court papers.

“His entire history within both the federal and state systems is entirely animated by his unusual sexual preferences.

“Those preferences are almost certainly the result of Mr. Bessigano's remarkably traumatic childhood.

“Unable to receive or seek affection from his parents, he sought that affection from animals.”

She added: “To the extent that Mr. Bessigano has accidentally injured or killed animals during the course of his sexual exploits, that harm is no greater than that imposed by meat-eaters and leather-wearers nationwide.”

Vile Bessigano was first convicted in 1993 of having sex with and killing a Rottweiler after breaking in to a barn in St. John Township, Indiana. He served two years behind bars.

In 2002, the creep got four years after killing a chicken he plucked and had sex with in a hotel room.

The case led the state to pass a law making sexual relations with animals a crime.

Bessigano, meanwhile, reportedly painted stripes on himself in jail and referred to himself as the “master of cats.”

In 2009, he pleaded guilty to downloading bestiality porn on his computer.

And he was arrested again in 2013 for sexually abusing a guinea fowl.

He was said to have cycled to a building where the bird was kept before molesting it.

The creature died and he tried to hide its body in a rubbish bin.

But Bessigano was snared after cops found feathers from the fowl at his home.

They also seized a pair of jeans covered in blood along with a cache of bestiality porn and a large rubber wolf head mask.

He was charged with bestiality and torturing and killing a domestic animal in Lowell, Indiana.

Bessigano was caged for seven and a half years as a habitual offender after pleading guilty in 2014 to theft of the bird.

His “castrate-me” plea comes after he was arrested yet again in January for allegedly violating his parole by receiving obscene material.

His lawyer Ms. Soble said the “concrete solution” to resolving his deviant behaviours was through the hormone treatment, reports the Chicago Tribune.

Prisons were not equipped to help people such as Bessigano with necessary treatment.

“Mr. Bessigano poses no risk of harm whatsoever to the human members of his community,” she says in court documents.

His conduct was "motivated by sexual desire, not by sadism or any desire to hurt animals."

A medical professor at a Baltimore university who evaluated Bessigano had recommended the course of supervised injections over more prison time.

Ms. Soble added: "Every day of incarceration is another day in which he is not receiving the hormone therapy that will end his sexual urges.”
