Cook pleaded guilty in December to conspiracy to commit sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion. He is the fourth man to plead to taking part in the torture of a young woman in a Lebanon mobile home.

He also was accused of trying to hire a hit man to kill the lead prosecutor and the alleged victim in the case.

Now this guy - I'm ok him with being in solitary. For a very long time.

wingedkat: That was almost hot subby. Then I read TFA.

The full story linked from TFA is even worse. (Unless that's the one you meant)

Authorities have said that Bagley - described by investigators as the victim's "master" who went by the name Master Ed

Wii-ii-ii-iilbur...

From a link in the story

"A suburban St. Louis man, one of five accused of torturing and mutilating a runaway teen who authorities say was a sex slave for years.."

Doesn't sound very "amusing" subby, unless you're into that kind of thing.

I thought you usualy got sentanced in the court room. Just how big is a sex slave case? Seems kinda kinky to do it that way. And probably a tight fit.

ShannonKW: I grew up reading the Gor series, so it has a special place in my heart.

ANOTHER kink thread without a lot of screaming about how no one wants to hear it?

Be still my beating heart.

Sock Ruh Tease: Subby finds sex slavery and torture amusing. There are domination dungeons you should check out before you hurt someone, subby.

Subby here. No; I don't find torture or slavery amusing. I found the headline (inadvertently) amusing.

Mr. Shabooboo: Bailiff...Whack his peepeee

Judge Judy scares me

ShannonKW: When you're reading fantasy pulp serials with oil-painted nekkid slave chicks on every cover you can't rightly complain that the author didn't deliver what was promised.

You mean Shakespeare didn't write this?

BronyMedic: Considering to join most local BDSM groups you have to not only sign a non-disclosure agreement, but go through a criminal and civil background check, I don't think you know what you're talking about.

lol

BronyMedic: 3horn: BDSM: One of the few communities that actively invites predators and then waits for them to fark up before anyone questions them (if at all).

Considering to join most local BDSM groups you have to not only sign a non-disclosure agreement, but go through a criminal and civil background check, I don't think you know what you're talking about.

Especially since they'll throw you out and ban you for the slightest shenanigans.

I don't think I've ever gone through the criminal and background checks. Of course, I'm not an "official" member of the local Imperial Court (though three of my friends are) or the Portland Leather Alliance (though I did attend Kinkfest.)

That said, at least around here there's usually some checking and proving yourself involved in the scene. I don't know any subs or bottoms that would just jump in with just any person that came along; most would want to see them around in the community three or four times at a minimum.

As for throwing you out for shenanigans - I don't know if that's happened lately in a while, I'm fairly new to the local scene (Been kinky for a decade and a half, been "in the community" for a year.)

I'm not a fan of Gor. It's just too cliched at this point.

Oysterman: From the other article: "Prosecutors have accused Bagley of numerous torture and mutilation acts, including whipping the young woman, electrically shocking her, locking her in a dog cage and forcing her head under water."

...I think I just won Kink bingo.

/seriously, that's messed up

Depends. I mean, yeah... obviously the person involved was doing it very, very wrong.

There's a big difference between whipping with a 10' long single-tail whip and making it crack vs. using a 6' single-tail carefully.

Shocking? That's what tools like Violet Wands, TENS units and electric sly swatters are for - high amperage, low voltage. It's not dangerous, or at least not very dangerous.

The dog cage? Sounds like fun. Some subs *like* to be kept in tight spaces like that - one friend once mentioned that she would like to have their dominant keep them in an under-bed cage (18" tall).

Forcing the head under water? Depends on how long it's held there, and also if it's moving water or not. Compared to breathplay or carotid occlusions, it's not very dangerous.

/Note that I didn't say things were "safe". Nothing is truly "safe".
//Honestly, it sounds like the start to a fun Saturday night to me.

BronyMedic: The local group here makes you do a 75 dollar background check you have to pay for out of pocket. It's one of the reasons I've never chosen to get vetted and join it. The other being that I'm married, and my wife would have a fit.

Because your wife doesn't know you like the kink, or because you'd take the opportunity to violate the limits of your relationship?

It's possible to be in "the scene" and be monogamous, you know.

BronyMedic: Aaaaand that's the point it crosses the line from consensual play to sexual assault.

Probably, but not necessarily. Not everyone uses "red" for "STOP STOP STOP" - I use yellow to "slow down", red to "pause", and another word (one that won't come up in conversation very often at all) for "get me the fark out of this NOW".

3horn: Even then I've seen play continue when a spectator "reded" a scene.

What this is I don't even. Apparently you have your own lexicon.

tallguywithglasseson: What this is I don't even. Apparently you have your own lexicon.

"Red" is one of the most common "stop now!" safewords. In those cases, it's supposed to stop play immediately - no questions asked first, you start letting them loose and giving them aftercare. It usually means that the top broke a limit, they are truly injured or they are having a mental issue (like a PTSD trigger).

Some people use red as "stop for now"... but if you don't negotiate beforehand (which is a massive screwup in and of itself) red is almost invariably the assumed "get me out of here!" safeword.

/And yes, like any subculture, we have our own lexicon.
