- 21-year-old Nicholas Sardo told Marion County Sheriff’s deputies he had sex with the horse named Jackie G. after witnesses called police.
A Florida man is behind bars after admitting to police that he had sex with a miniature horse several times in the course of a week.
NBC affiliate WESH-TV reported that 21-year-old Nicholas Sardo told Marion County Sheriff’s deputies he had sex with the horse named Jackie G. after witnesses say they saw the events last month outside of Ocala and called police.
Sardo, who was charged with four counts of sexual contact with an animal, is being held at the Marion County Jail.
He told investigators that he wore a condom during each of the four encounters because he “didn’t want to get a disease from the horse” according to officials.
