We all have our own ways to deal with the immense amount of stress school provides. Some shake it off in the gym, some forget about it with friends, some let it out by getting as drunk as they can, etc. However, a student at Fresno State University in Fresno, California found a way to “relieve” himself that landed him in jail. It’s also something he’ll probably never be able to live down.
On Tuesday November 10th, a 23 year-old computer engineering student was arrested after police found him on top of a sheep with his pants down. A female student heard strange noises early that morning in the Fresno Sheep Unit, which houses 100 sheep for breeding, and called the police to investigate. Once inside the barn, the police found the 5th year student allegedly having intercourse with the animal.
According to KMPH FOX 26, the student’s asked, “Am I going to be expelled for this,” upon his arrest. His initial defense was that he was wrestling cattle in the barn. However, the police noted to him that there were no cattle in the barn, only sheep, which the student described as “all the same.”
Later, his story changed to blowing off steam due to the stress of exams. He claimed to have been drinking and decided to abuse the sheep. Since the incident, veterinarians at the university have increased security over their livestock and students have made light of the situation by creating a Twitter account for the sheep.
The student has since been released from police custody after being charged with sexual assault against an animal. The event has become known as “the sheep incident” amongst student at the school.
Man, just imagine this coming up in a job interview!
