Amber Finney was jailed after a video of a woman having sex with a dog went viral
Amber Finney, 33, was jailed after a vile video showing a woman having sex with a dog went viral.
Finney originally claimed the New Year's Day tape was bogus.
But Detective Nick Carney said after quizzing her: "She says it's fake. But for everyone else who has seen the footage it's clear as day that it's not a fake.
Finney originally claimed the video was fake
It's a real video
"It's a real video."
Court documents said Finney "did knowingly engage in sexual conduct with an animal, or knowingly possess, sell or purchase and animal with the intent that it be subjected to sexual conduct."
The brunette pleaded no contest in Warren, Ohio, US, to one count of having sex with an animal.
Judge Terry Ivanchak sentenced her to 180 days in prison, but suspended 120 days. He also gave her credit for 33 days she had already served in Trumbull County Jail.
Finney is the first person to be jailed for bestiality
Finney is the first person to be charged with bestiality in Warren after the city introduced a new law against the sickening sexual act.
It was forced to change its laws after one of Finney's neighbours Salvador Rendon, 61, was convicted of having sex with dogs last year.
He spent 30 days behind bars and was put on five years' probation for animal cruelty.
Finney was arrested last month after been on the run since January.
Shop workers recognised her from an old photo on the telly.
The pharmacy staff who saw her in their store remembered her on TV as the woman "getting into trouble with animals".
Police caught up with her after she ran inside her house and found her hiding in the basement, crying, a police report said. The type of dog she had sex with has not been revealed.
Finney posted several photos of dogs and a cat online.
And a picture of a pitbull-type dog has the caption: "This is Rocko he is a pit mix free for a good home."
