Info update from the Furvengers:
1) The officer's name is Dowty. We have the case number but, not sure if it's ok to leak it (?).
2) He's been booked on the following charges: Sexual assault of an animal, Animal neglect, Animal abuse.
However, this might not be all he'll end up facing. There will be a full investigation before it goes to trial most likely.
3) His devices were indeed seized by police.
4) His family were not hiding him. His mother handed him over and is quoted as texting something to the effect of "He deserves whatever is coming to him if this is true".
