I could wish n.American reports were such as this.

Interesting money quotes. "His family said he was in a loving relationship with the dog" and "we suspected him because they became best buddies and not even his owner could get responses like that."

Worth reading until the end.

Edit:spelling gud

Clearly, he's a menace to society and must be stopped.

Stories like this one just baffle me. It seems like the reporter took a mostly neutral tone, which is appreciated, but it also highlights how ridiculous the prosecution sounds. Based on what we know, this relationship appears completely amiable, albeit under poor circumstances. So they're investigating the matter because...

Although to the credit of humanity, nobody has opened a case yet.

I think the comments shed light on the because.... No one uses the word abomination unless they are religious...

Now hold on a minute, let's give this person a fair chance. They actually didn't use the word abomination at all; they said arbomination.

Let's break this down. We have arb, which presumably represents the Latin word arbor, meaning tree. So based on this, we can conclude that arbomination is a portmanteau of arbor abomination, or, something that causes trees to feel disgusted.

This means that Thobzn Thiza is actually a dendrophile, the age old rival of the zoophile.

Or, maybe Thobzn is just religious. Hard to say.

Probably an odd translation thing, but I love how the accused is named Drums and the policeman is named Terror.
