Alabama court imprisons dog for "lewd and amoral conduct."

A court in the US state of Alabama has sentenced a dog to spend 30 days in prison for "amoral conduct." The dog, called "Brownie" was arrested after reportedly sniffing the behind of another male dog in public. Prosecutors then succesfully argued that the dog was engaging in lewd and homosexual behaviour in a public place. Sammy Nelson, the owner of the dog called the conviction "outrageous" and vowed to appeal.
