Source:A Durango man who first made news for allegedly having sexual intercourse with a horse escaped Tuesday from the La Plata County Jail.

Jonah Barrett-Lesko, 25, was arrested at 1:51 p.m. in the Animas River near Santa Rita Park, not quite a mile from the jail, said Ray Shupe, spokesman with the Durango Police Department.

Law enforcement first learned of the escape at 1:25 p.m. when someone reported seeing a man in a jail-issued jumpsuit running near Office Depot, Shupe said.

Durango Police Chief Bob Brammer happened to be driving by in the area and noticed Barrett-Lesko. By then, he had removed his jumpsuit and was running on the west side of the river in his boxer shorts, Brammer said in an interview with The Durango Herald.

“That’s what really attracted my attention to him because you don’t see half-naked people running through the woods in their boxer shorts,” Brammer said.

Barrett-Lesko was arrested in June on suspicion of having sexual intercourse with a horse on June 17 at the La Plata County Fairgrounds. The incident occurred during the middle of the night, but the horse’s caretaker had a video surveillance camera inside the stall and saw a live video feed of the incident on a mobile phone application, according to police.

Judging by the marks on his back, the horse sex was recent.

Maybe he broke out because some horse-loving cowboys in the cell next to him kept ‘taking turns’.  Either way, it’s super important to remember how hi-tech 21st-century farmers are if you’re attracted to farm animals.  Every Barn has a camera and every farmer worth his salt has a motion-sensing camera.

I feel sorry for this farmer.  He had to watch the whole thing.

Despite ‘Zoophile’ community thinking, animals can’t consent and it’s a crime against the animal kingdom to try to make man-horse babies.

FYI: Bestiality is a crime.  In most states.
