Themis Matsoukas, a 64 year old professor from Penn State University, is facing serious allegations of performing sex acts with his pet border collie. The incident was filmed earlier this year on CCTV in Rothrock State Forest, Pennsylvania.
The Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources launched an investigation and identified Matsoukas through personal items and his dog. According to a criminal complaint, Matsoukas admitted to investigators that he did it “to blow off steam”.
Matsoukas is a professor of chemical engineering and has been at Penn State University since 1991. He has written a number of books and won distinguished teaching awards. Following the allegations, the university released a statement saying he’d “been relieved of his responsibilities and is on leave”.
Officers executed warrants to search Matsoukas’ home and he reportedly became “visibly nervous”. When officers told him why they were there, he allegedly begged them to shoot him, saying “I need to die”. He also admitted “to blow off steam” as his motive for the acts.
The documents state there are further images featuring Matsoukas’ backpack, suggesting his lewd habits date back to at least 2014. He is also alleged to have recorded himself while carrying out the acts using an electronic tablet. Matsoukas was charged on Tuesday with open lewdness, indecent exposure, sexual intercourse with an animal, cruelty to animals and disorderly conduct.
Matsoukas’ lawyer, Matthew McClenahen, said on Wednesday it would be “inappropriate” to comment on the matter at this time. Themis Matsoukas will face the consequences of his actions in court, as the investigation into the allegations continues.
