Local reports suggest that for a while, a man was caught on trail camera footage for committing heinous sexual acts on a pet dog. Later, the forest officials identified Themis Matsoukas as the individual involved after recognizing his backpack.Â
The footage allegedly shows the professor walking naked from the waist down with his pet collie during nighttime. Matsoukas was wearing only a ski mask, boots with socks, and a wristwatch while carrying a North Face backpack.

Further investigation revealed that similar incidents had been captured on other trail cameras in the area dating back to 2014. This led authorities to believe that Matsoukas had been engaging in such behavior for at least almost a decade’s time.
