In March, Stephen Thresh, 47, voluntarily handed in his computer at a police station and confessed to possessing hundreds of (illegal) images of women having sex with animals, including a snake, a tiger and an elephant. Thresh said he had earlier downloaded a message of unknown origin notifying him that “law enforcement authorities have been informed,” and he thought they’d go easier on him if he turned himself in. Police denied knowledge of the message. Thresh insisted that possessing such images was not a problem that needed addressing.
