This is the best summary I could come up with:
A prominent crocodile specialist from Darwin has pleaded guilty to dozens of charges of bestiality involving the torture, rape and killing of pet dogs.
A suppression order had hidden the identity of Adam Robert Corden Britton, a zoologist who has built an international reputation for his work on crocodiles over decades, since his arrest last year.
After pleading guilty to all charges in the Supreme Court today, Chief Justice Michael Grant warned the gallery the facts of the offending detailed “acts that could only be described as grotesque cruelty which are both confronting and distressing”.
Crown prosecutor Marty Aust detailed numerous instances of torture and sexual exploitation of animals between November 2020 and April 2022.
It was heard that Britton used marketplace website Gumtree to source new dogs, often building a rapport with the owners who were reluctantly giving their pets away due to travel or work commitments.
Last year, police seized 44 items including computers, mobile telephones, cameras, external hard drives, tools, weapons, dog paraphernalia and sex toys.
