William Travis Stilton, 24, who pleaded no contest to posting pictures online of himself engaging in sexual acts, will have all of his prison time suspended.
Stilton, who was sentenced in Roanoke County Circuit Court on Wednesday, will pay almost $2,000 in fines and $216.08 in restitution to pay for veterinary bills incurred when the dogs were seized from his home. All of Stilton’s two-year sentence was suspended, but he will spend three years on probation.

Judge James Swanson ordered the defendant be disallowed from owning or having any unsupervised contact with any companion animals.
When Stilton pleaded no contest in front of Swanson in September, Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Ashley Sweet said the Elliston man described in “great detail” and posted “numerous pictures” on online forums about his acts with the dogs.
Stilton went by screen names of Enygma84 and Enygma888 to post pictures of himself with a border collie mix and a coon hound on an online bestiality forum.
Detective Jeremy Hoffman with the Fairfax County Police Department found the posts dating back to 2011 and linked them to Stilton.
In May, Roanoke County police seized the defendant’s computer, cellphones, disposable cameras, four dogs and veterinary bills and records, according to search warrants. Stilton was later indicted by a Roanoke County grand jury.
