A woman who was allegedly filmed performing a sex act on a live trout has appeared in court for the first time.
Catherine June Lee, 58, from the Hobart suburb of Howden, faces three charges in relation to bestiality material allegedly produced between February 2022 and January 2023.
She is charged with one count of possession of a product of bestiality and two counts of manufacturing or reproducing a product of bestiality.
Dressed in a black suit, Lee appeared in Hobart Magistrates’ Court on Monday requesting an adjournment without plea.
The judge granted Lee a stay until October. Mercury reported.
Police allege the disturbing footage showed Lee lying in a boat at sea somewhere off southern Tasmania while her co-accused used a live brown trout to perform a sex act on her.
The images showed “sexual activity” between Lee and the trout, according to court documents.
Lee’s co-defendant, Ashley David Hallam, 55, appeared in court in May this year but has yet to enter a plea.
Ashley Hallam, Catherine Lee June’s co-defendant, was also charged in February 2023.

Hallam (pictured) is charged with producing and possessing bestiality material.
Hallam, from Dolphin Sands in Tasmania’s south-east, was charged with two counts of manufacturing or reproducing a product of bestiality and three counts of possessing a product of bestiality.
The couple was arrested and charged by police in February 2023.
At the time, police reminded the public that possessing or distributing bestiality material is a crime.
