Is there no shame, fish murder!
Prosecutors in Wisconsin say four women lured the husband of one of the women to a hotel room, tying him up and blindfolding him before gluing his penis to his stomach as part of a quadrangle lovers' revenge plot.
According to investigators, the married man was romantically involved with all but one of the women. The man planned to meet with one of them on July 30 at a motel roughly 50 kilometres southwest of Green Bay in the village of Stockbridge, but instead found himself bound and assaulted, according to documents filed in Calumet County, Wisc.
Wendy Sewell, 43; Therese Ziemann, 48; Michelle Belliveau, 43; and the man's wife are charged with being party to false imprisonment. Ziemann is also charged with fourth-degree sexual assault. The women are each free on $200 bail.
Investigators say all the women but Belliveau were romantically involved with the man.
The husband and wife are not being named, as the man is the alleged victim of a sexual assault.
According to criminal complaints filed on July 31, the man agreed to be bound and blindfolded for a "rub down" by Ziemann. Instead, she cut off his underwear and sent a text message to the other women to come to the room.
Ziemann struck him in the face, and when the other women arrived used Krazy Glue to attach his penis to his stomach, according to the complaints.
After the women left, the man got free by chewing through his bindings, went outside and called police.
According to court documents, Ziemann told investigators she met the man through Craigslist, fell in love and paid for the man's motel room for two months. She said she also gave him around $3,000. She said she recently learned from the man's wife that he was married, had other girlfriends and was "using them for money."
In a twist Wednesday, the 36-year-old man was jailed on accusations of child abuse, theft, unlawful phone use and harassment with a death threat in a domestic abuse investigation.
The man has not been formally charged

Can you guess the new Doritos flavour?
is it face flavour?
How should I know?
I reckon it's Ford Cougar flavour.
Icelandic sheep cheek flavour.
The enui of realising that all life must decay flavour.
Rigor Mortis flavour with a sachet of embalming fluid to season.
Wife of Twitter CEO 'tweets' delivery
Yesterday, 09:30 pm
The pregnant wife of Twitter chief executive Evan Williams delivered updates on the delivery of their son on Tuesday using the microblogging service co-founded by her husband.
Evan Williams' wife 'tweeted' that she wanted an epidural. "Dear Twitter, My water broke. It wasn't like Charlotte in Sex and the City. Now, timing contractions on an iPhone app," Sara Morishige Williams wrote late Monday on her Twitter feed @sara.
"The Contraction Tracker was fun until the contractions got painful," she informed her more than 14,000 followers about an hour later.
"Admitted to hospital. Got the second-to-last room," she "tweeted" early Tuesday, followed several hours later by: "Epidural, yes please."
In one final "tweet" following her request for painkillers, she wrote: "The heartbeat monitor soothes the silence of a room that will shortly be anything but silent."
Her husband then took over on his Twitter feed @ev. "Operation Baby Launch continues on track, though a bit too slowly in my opinion. That's usually the case with big launches though," he said.
That was followed several hours later by another message announcing the delivery.
"Yes! @sara gave birth to a perfect baby boy. Both are well. 8 pounds, 21 inches! Smiles all around," it said.
The couple live in San Francisco. It is their first child.
I hate the internet.
It's nuts, it's like Extreme Tweeting.
