Lawyer: Judge was right on bestiality ruling (http://www.philly.com/philly/news/homepage/20090925_Lawyer__Judge_was_right_on_bestiality_rul ing.html)
Laugh or gag all you want, but the attorney for a Burlington County cop accused of molesting underage girls and young cows said a judge made the right call by dropping animal-cruelty charges.
Superior Court Judge James J. Morley said repeatedly Wednesday that he didn't condone anyone sticking his penis into a cow's mouth, but concluded that a grand jury didn't have enough evidence to determine whether Moorestown Patrolman Robert Melia Jr. "tormented" or even "puzzled" the cows when he allegedly committed the deed in 2006.
Catanzaro later filed a motion to have those charges dismissed, which Morley granted Wednesday, claiming it was impossible to know how the cows felt about having Melia's penis in their mouth.
I'd imagine that would be damn puzzling.
