A disturbing crime of animal cruelty has left the officers at the Jones County Sheriff's Department in a stump. According to Sergeant JD Carter, in his 17 years of enforcement, this is the first time that he has come across a crime so graphic and vile that the officials cannot release the videos publicly.

Denise Frazier, 19, is a Mississippi woman who has been arrested and can face up to 10 years in a prison cell after a disturbing video of her having sex with a dog was posted on social media.
Frazier was caught on a video that had spread around via Snapchat depicting her engaging in sex with the male canine, it is claimed.

A concerned resident reported the video to the authorities and she was arrested on aggravated cruelty charges.
'In my 17 years in law enforcement, this is one of the most disturbing cases that I've ever investigated,' said Sergeant JD Carter of the Jones County Sheriff's Department.

'JCSD is in possession of several videos that are so graphic that we are not at liberty to release them or even discuss the particular content,' he added. 'The investigation into this case is far from over.'
It is stated that Frazier has confessed to her crime and admitted that it is her in the video but this is yet to be confirmed.
Carter says that Frazier's alibi was that she was forced into committing the heinous acts but says there's no evidence of that though they are investigating.
She allegedly told police she was 'threatened to do it' and also that 'people pay [her]' for the videos, according to the Laurel Leader-Call.
'We've never dealt with this particular type of case before,' Carter said. 'There are really no true words to describe it other than disgusting.

'So, right now, we're still in that initial phase, right past the first part of it. But, we're still going to look into it to see if there's more.'
He says there may be more videos filmed in other counties. They have alerted nearby sheriff's departments.
The dogs were seized from the residence she was arrested at and taken to a local animal hospital.
One of the dogs is a German shepherd that Frazier referred to as a 'service dog.'
Frazier has been booked into the Jones County Adult Detention Facility on charges of animal cruelty and unnatural intercourse.
She made her first appearance in court Thursday and had her bond set at $25,000.

The woman has also been ordered by a judge to stay away from animals until after her trial, according to WDAM.
Animal cruelty in Mississippi is charged with up to 6 months in prison and a fine, however, unnatural intercourse could see Frazier jailed for up to ten years.
