Moorestown Patrolman Robert Melia, 38, is every criminal defense attorney’s nightmare. First, Melia was charged with aggravated sexual assault on three underaged girls. Now, he has been arrested for sex with cows.
In April 2008, Melia and his then live-in lover, Heather Lewis, 32, were arrested for the sexual assault on the girls. In that case, Melia and Lewis were charged with three counts of aggravated sexual assault and one count of criminal sexual contact in his home from 2003 until 2006.
In the latest arrest, Melia was charged with four counts of animal cruelty after allegedly engaging in sex acts with cows between June and December of 2006. For those who find this “udderly” disgusting, this is only the latest case of bestiality that we have seen this week.
