“
On the above date, I responded to REDACTED Spiker Lane, Lake Wales, to assume an investigation into possible sexual activities involving an animal. Upon arrival, I learned that on 12/26/2024 at approximately 1300 hours, REDACTED witnessed her boyfriend, Donald Calloway (suspect), masturbating directly next to her horses head, in the horse paddock. The horse is identified as “Raven”, a female 24-year-old, black in color, American Quarter Horse. REDACTED reported the suspect’s penis was fully exposed and erect and he was stroking it in a sexually gratifying manner. REDACTED reported the suspect was tapping the horse’s nose with his erect penis and attempting to place his penis in the horse’s nostril. REDACTED reported the suspect continued to stroke his erect penis while touching the horse for several minutes. REDACTED recorded a portion of this incident on her cellphone and provided the video to me. REDACTED provided a sworn recorded statement.
The video confirms REDACTED statements and clearly shows the suspect stroking his fully exposed erect penis directly next to the horse’s nose and face. The suspect taps the horse on the nose area several time with his erect penis and then uses his finger to tap his own penis in an attempt to get the horse to pay it attention. Although the video does not explicitly show the suspect inserting his penis into the horse’s nostril, it does appear by his actions and movements that he is attempting to.
I conducted a recorded post-Miranda interview with the suspect. The suspect stated he made a “dumb decision” and was “stupid”. The suspect stated “I haven’t had any sex in probably two months” and “maybe it was just a sexually frustrated moment”.
I determined the suspect knowingly engaged in an act between himself and “Raven”, an animal, for the purpose of sexual gratification. The suspect was placed under arrest.”
