‘PIT BULL BUMMER’ AVOIDS LIFE IN JAIL

-

A MAN accused by his bitter ex- wife of having sex with a pit bull, has walked free from court.

Michael Czeiszperg­er, 37, had faced life in prison for sodomy charges, because of his sex offender status.

Following the acquital his lawyer, John Melton, said: “There was a total lack of evidence. It was a whole case built on conjecture.”

Trauma

The only person who believed Czeiszperg­er was bumming the dog was his estranged wife, Tambra, who never saw the act take place.

A vet in Saginaw, Michigan, said although there was some internal trauma to the mutt, what had caused it is inconclusi­ve, and that the pit bull’s behaviour was also submissive and out of the ordinary for the breed.

The ex- wife testified that she thought the dog had been bummed because of the “look on his face” and that “he had a look of horror”.

While sodomy can FREE: Czeiszperg­er ( left) and a pit bull carry a 15- year term, Michael Czeiszperg­er’s previous conviction in 2002 of having sex with a 15- year- old labelled him a “sexually delinquent person” and enhanced the possible penalty to life in prison.
