Alleged sexual abuse of animals needs immediate attention

Goal: RE Hines, Commonwealth’s Attorney, Hanover County, Virginia

Goal: Ensure that the suspect is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for his alleged involvement in the sexual abuse of animals.

In a deeply disturbing case, 31-year-old Scott Ryan Matthews of Mechanicsville, Virginia, has been arrested and charged with possession of animal sexual abuse material. According to the Hanover County Sheriff’s Office, Matthews was initially investigated after reporting an unrelated issue, which allegedly led investigators to discover the illegal content.

Matthews now faces charges including possession of animal sexual abuse material. He is currently being held without bond at the Pamunkey Regional Jail with 10 additional charges for other crimes.

This egregious case highlights the need for swift legal action and enforcement of laws that protect animals from exploitation. The possession and distribution of sexual abuse material involving animals is a heinous crime that not only violates the dignity of animals, but also poses a grave danger to society. Take action now.
