Dominatrix acquitted in client's cardiodeath

A Massachusetts woman who worked as a dominatrix was acquitted Monday on manslaughter charges in the heart attack death of a 53-year-old 275-pound man whom she had tied up.

The trial offered this bit of entertainment:

During his closing argument to the jury, prosecutor Robert Nelson put on a black leather mask with a zippered mouth opening and re-enacted the bondage session. With both hands, he reached back and clutched the top of a blackboard as if strapped to the rack. Then he hung his head as if dead.

Asher's lawyer objected, and the judge agreed.

"That's enough Mr. Nelson," Judge Charles Grabau said. "Thank you for your demonstration."

Almost as if he had personal experience!
