Michigan Man Who Was on Video Sexually Assaulting Dog Has Died

A Michigan man found on video sexually assaulting a dog has died before his case could be concluded.

Dog Gone Disturbing

One Michigan man took the "Man's Best Friend" thing way too far by sodomizing his dog and videotaped the incident with a tablet.

What made this Bay City man a wanted man was when his three-year-old grandson was playing with his grandfather's tablet and discovered a video of his grandpa having relations with a dog. The child then showed his dad the video who recognized the man as his father. Now that's twisted.

Before police could arrive to arrest Gramps, he became a fugitive and fled to Alabama to stay with a relative. His son alerted police that Alabama might be where they would find him. That is when police in Colbert County, Alabama arrested him and had him sent back to Michigan to stand trial.

Man Who Sexually Assaulted Dog Dies Before the Case Concluded

According to MLive, 64-year-old Michael J. Johnston was extradited to the Iosco County jail where he was awaiting his trial on nine charges that included two counts each of sodomy with his dog, possession of child sexually abusive material, aggravated possession of child sexually abusive material, and three counts of using a computer to commit a crime. Investigators also discovered on the tablet that Johnston was part of a bestiality ring.

While Johnston was in jail he complained of headaches and was taken to a hospital where the doctors discovered he was suffering from a rare brain infection. Johnston died at the hospital the very same day.
