Carver County, MN (trfnews.i234.me) — A Watertown woman, Jamie Nicole Holcombe, 28, has been charged with two counts of bestiality after investigators uncovered explicit media during a child pornography investigation at her residence.
On April 10, 2025, Carver County Sheriff’s deputies executed a search warrant at Holcombe’s home on Terrace Drive, which she shared with a man identified as “Jess.” The search, initially related to a separate case involving child sexual abuse material, led to the discovery of multiple images and a video allegedly depicting Holcombe engaged in sexual acts with a dog.
Detectives found the dog, named “Jax,” inside the residence. A forensic examination of Jess’s phone revealed two explicit images dated November 2, 2024. In the first image, Holcombe is reportedly seen nude from the waist down as the dog licks her exposed body. She was identified by a distinctive tattoo, and the bedroom in the photo matched one in their home. The angle of the image suggested a third party was present and documenting the act.
A second image allegedly showed Holcombe engaged in another explicit act with the same dog. Investigators noted the setting matched the couple’s bedroom and that Holcombe was identifiable by the same tattoo.
Further examination of Holcombe’s cell phone uncovered a 10-second video dated March 16, 2025, reportedly showing her nude from the waist down, lying back with her legs spread, and performing another sex act with the animal. The file was located in the camera roll of her device.
Due to the nature of the material and concern for the welfare of the dog, prosecutors sought a warrant for Holcombe’s arrest to prevent what they described as “imminent harm” to the animal.
Holcombe is charged with one gross misdemeanor count and one misdemeanor count of bestiality. If convicted, she faces up to 364 days in jail and a $3,000 fine on the gross misdemeanor count, and up to 90 days and a $1,000 fine on the misdemeanor count.
She was released from custody without bail but under several conditions, including no contact with the victim, no use or possession of firearms or dangerous weapons.
