Pinyan's death prompted the passing of a bill in Washington State prohibiting both sex with animals, and the videotaping of the same, some months later.

A documentary of the life and death of Pinyan, and the life led by those who came to the farm near Enumclaw as he did, debuted at the Sundance Film Festival 2007 under the title Zoo. The Sundance Film Festival is a Film festival that takes place annually in the state of Utah, in the United States.

Death

Prosecutors later determined that the horse, an Arabian stallion, which had apparently engaged regularly in penetrative sex acts of this kind, had not been injured by being allowed to engage in sex in this manner. The Arabian horse is a breed of Horse with a reputation for Intelligence, spirit and stamina The photographer, 54-year old James Michael Tait of Enumclaw,[7] was later charged with trespassing, since this act took place on a third party's property. Trespass (Fr trespas a crime properly a stepping across from Lat A third man alleged to have been present was not charged as his identity was not proven by evidence. According to the Medical Examiner's Office, Pinyan "died of acute peritonitis due to perforation of the colon",[8] and the death was ruled "accidental". Peritonitis is defined as Inflammation of the Peritoneum (the Serous membrane which lines part of the abdominal cavity and some of the Viscera The colon is a storage tube for solid wastes The main function of the colon appears to be extraction of Water and salts from Feces. [9] A further source states that the stallion was owned by Pinyan, who merely boarded it at the property concerned. [10]

Other factors surrounding the death were apparently that the deceased, concerned about appearing in hospital with an unusual internal injury and the effect on his security clearance as an engineer for aerospace company Boeing, had apparently refused his friends' urging to go to the hospital for several hours after being aware he was internally injured, and was either beyond treatment or dead when he finally reached the ER. For use by the United Nations, see Security Clearance (UN A security clearance is a status granted to individuals allowing them access to Classified The Boeing Company is a major Aerospace and defense corporation originally founded by William E

Media reports at the time of the trial suggested that despite seizing and examining carefully a large number of such videos from the property, no evidence of injury to the horses was found, precluding animal cruelty charges, and that the trespass charge against Tait were brought due to lack of grounds for any other matter:

It was only after Pinyan died, when law enforcement looked for one way to punish his associates, that the legality of bestiality in Washington State became an issue [. . . ] The prosecutor's office wanted to charge Tait with animal abuse, but the police found no evidence of abused animals on the many videotapes they collected from his home. As there was no law against humanely fucking one horse, the prosecutors could only charge Tait with trespassing.

The prosecutor's office says no animal cruelty charges were filed because there was no evidence of injury to the horses.
