CONVICTED (2017) | Michael Smith, born c. 1953, of Princess Road, Chickenley WF12 8RA, and Gwen Kerr, born c. 1962, of Queen Street, Chickenley – convicted of charges relating to sexual intercourse with a bull mastiff dog Pervert Michael Smith was found guilty of encouraging girlfriend Gwen Kerr to have sex with bull mastiff In two separate four-minute videos Michael Smith filmed Gwen Kerr having sex with his dog – but the deviant pair walked free from court as the judge warned them ‘don’t do it again’. Leeds Crown Court heard Smith “used and abused” Kerr before taking the video to social services in May 2016, claiming he was concerned for her welfare. The jury heard Smith told the social worker he was worried about Kerr saying a drug dealer had been giving her amphetamines and she had been put to work as sex worker. She told him she would have to report the footage to the police. Smith denied he made two films and said he did not know how more footage got on the camcorder. Smith denied aiding and abetting, counselling or procuring intercourse with an animal and a second charge of possessing extreme pornographic images, but was found guilty by jury after trial. Kerr pleaded guilty to having sex with an animal. Mark McKone, prosecuting, said: “This defendant (Kerr) effectively had sexual intercourse with a dog. Mr Smith took a video film of that dog.” He added: “In respect of extreme pornographic images this offence carries a maximum of two years in prison.” Mr McKone said that Smith had 10 previous convictions for 40 offences, although none of a similar nature. Sentencing the pair, James Spencer QC said: “I’m quite satisfied that you, Michael Smith, used and abused your girlfriend Gwen Kerr to be involved in the activity. “I am sentencing you to a 12 months’ custodial sentence, suspended for 12 months. “Gwen Kerr, I am conditionally discharging you for 12 months. Don’t do it again.” Smith was also told to pay a £115 surcharge and Kerr a £20 surcharge. The Sun
