A british university registrar traded women falsified college degrees for spanking sessions.
Karl Woodgett, 37, who worked at the University of Surrey and the University of Bath started off fabricating degrees to relatives of his Cameroonian wife while he worked at the University of Bath. Woodgett soon combined this business with his own sexual fetishes by luring them to hotel rooms, where he would spank and cane them. He told them that they were subjects in a “pain management study”.
He also videotaped two of the women.
James Ward, prosecuting for the UK Border Agency, told Bristol Crown Court: “[Woodgett] did not want Kah for sex but to indulge his spanking fetish with her because she had a black bottom.”
Woodgett charged £500 for an undergraduate degree and £1,000 for a Master’s with distinction.
He was charged with two counts of possessing articles for the use of fraud. His sentence includes nine months in prison, suspension for a year and 200 hours community service. His wife, who assisted him, was also charged with falsifying documents and was sentenced to four months in prison.
But also turns out, Woodgett is not the only one getting into the paddling trend these days. University of North Florida professor Tayeb A. Giuma will be fired for paddling a contractor outside of his home during a dispute last fall. He was arrested on battery charges and will be tried later this month.
