- Ohio, USA -
In this article there are references to “dogs sexually assaulted.”
For the record, I totally disagree with the phrase as I firmly believe that it should be called what it is, RAPE!
FOX 17 reports that 25-years-old LUCAS RUSSELL VANWOERT (pictured), “is accused of sexually assaulting dogs within the last two years.”
According to a criminal complaint, at least four innocent dogs were involved and the crimes are believed to have taken place between November 2020, and April 2022.
Court documents obtained by FOX 17, stated that VANWOERT produced a series of “animal crush” videos and other graphic material.
According to court records, in November 2020, VANWOERT filmed dogs being sexually assaulted and “subjected to bodily injury,” resulting in the death of an innocent dog. VANWOERT then sent the videos to a 51-year-old man in Australia.
It just so happens that the Australian male in question was arrested in April 2022, “for multiple offenses including bestiality, animal cruelty, aggravated animal cruelty, and child exploitation crimes” and among the videos and photos found on his devices, was material that investigators eventually linked to VANWOERT.
According to court documents, confiscated footage showed a man who looks like and has the same tattoo on his arm as VANWOERT.
WOOD reports: “GPS data connected the videos to a truck stop in Michigan and the videos appear to be filmed in a semitruck, an agent with the Department of Homeland Security Investigations wrote in the criminal complaint. It says VanWoert is a truck driver.”
VANWOERT, originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, moved to Mercer County, Ohio earlier this year. On September 27, 2022, a search warrant was executed at his current Celina home in Mercer County, Ohio where three dogs were discovered to be in poor health and the body of a fourth dog was found buried in the backyard.
During the search, VANWOERT admitted “to engaging in sex acts, beating, and strangling a dog” and placing the lifeless body of the furbaby in a dumpster on a former Grand Rapids employer’s property.
The sick murderer is being held in the Mercer County Sheriff's Office on four counts of creation of animal crush video and four counts of distribution of animal crush video, all felonies punishable by fines and/or up to seven years imprisonment if VANWOERT is convicted.
