A 44-year-old man booked into the St. Tammany Parish Jail last week is facing charges involving the alleged sexual abuse of an animal, according to jail records and court minutes.

Allen appeared via Zoom Monday morning for a felony 72-hour hearing before Judge James G. Burke III of Louisiana’s 22nd Judicial District Court.
