Oh man. The punster in me lives for stories like this. I apologize in advance. 50 year old Rodell Vereen of South Carolina has been arrested on charges of trespassing and buggery of a horse named Sugar. And so it begins.
Vereen was already on probation, saddled with the same crime committed in 2007, but it seems he was unable to stay away from his mane squeeze, because he repeatedly hoofed it back for more, proving his state of mind was unstable. He was colt in the act by Sugar’s owner, Barbara Kenley, who caught him on video, mounted and jockeying for position.
When she took the footage to the police to let them know Vereen had returned, however, they claimed to be unable to identify him. “Whinnied more proof,” they seemed to say. So she waited for him to gallop back and confronted him with a shotgun. Vereen apologized for his behavior, saying he was looking for the restroom, but he was arrested anyway, proving that there’s no escaping from the foal-y of his actions. He was held on $10,000 bail, but I understand Vereen will plead “Neigh” at his trial. And I’m done. See, that wasn’t so bad, was it?
Honestly, I’m surprised Sugar didn’t nail the guy with a well-placed kick. Maybe there was something to this? A little interspecies romance? Doesn’t matter now, I suppose. It’s like they say: Don’t do equine if you can’t do the time.
