true crime

a police officer used to live next door to one of my brothers and told him the following story. as a result, this is not an urban legend. it's just bizarre.

a man was found dead in his over the rhine apartment. he lived over the bar once known as "The Warehose." anyways, they find him sitting in a barber's chair, dressed up in a leather S&M outift. he had on a gasmask like mask that he could use to control his breathing. presumably this would be for auto asphyxiation? he also had electrodes attached to each testicle that were delivering electric shocks to his gonads.

but wait, that's not all. he also had a belt sander in his lap...more specifically on his crotch. he was wearing leather pants and one would assume the vibration provided him with stimulation. however, since he died like that, the belt sander had worn through the leather pants and his skin.

ouch.

how did he die? the mask malfunctioned if I recall and he suffocated. what a way to go.
