OT-ish: "It was like Guantanamo for sexual deviants"




Now that's a money quote! Also good is the victim's wife who said, "I
thought New York was safe."

A retired math teacher from Quebec survived near-fatal sex play at a midtown
bondage club but couldn't tell investigators how he was injured, law
enforcement sources said Monday.

The 64-year-old thrill-seeker had been found turning blue, hanging in a
dungeon room at the Nutcracker Suite on E. 33rd St. Friday morning.

Dressed in a dog collar and a pair of women's high heel shoes, the victim
had paid staff at the upscale S&M club $100 an hour to check on him every
hour.

"He comes down to visit once in a while," his unsuspecting wife said when
reached in Quebec.

The Daily News is withholding the victim's name.

She said she had been told her husband had been found "unconscious on one of
the streets."

She described her husband as a retired math teacher who didn't drink or go
to nightclubs.

"I thought New York was safe," she said.

The retiree was discovered by club staff about 1:30 a.m. and taken to St.
Vincent's Hospital Manhattan.

Doctors removed the breathing tube Monday, but the victim said he didn't
remember anything, sources said.

Police were investigating whether club employees could face negligence
charges.

Neighbors of the upscale pain club said its clients often knocked on the
wrong door looking for the party.

"A steady stream of bankers, lawyers, doctors, going to the ninth floor,"
said Janet Benshoof, president of the Global Justice Center on the 12th
floor. "It was like Guantanamo for sexual deviants. It was Abu Ghraib in
Manhattan, but for pleasure."
