Sacramento prosecutor deems foot fetish a 'sexual perversion'

Does this do it for you? Sicko?

 

A sexual batterer’s attraction to feet got an unusual shout-out in a press release issued Tuesday by the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office.

In the release…actually, why don’t you just read it?

CASE OF INTEREST

DATE: October 15, 2013

CASE: William Russell

PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Allison Dunham, Adult Sexual Assault

Prosecution

District Attorney Jan Scully announced today that William Russell pled no contest to two counts of first degree burglary, one count of sexual battery and one count of attempted sexual battery. The burglary offenses are strikes under California law.

Russell, who did not know the victims, took interest in the victims’ toes and feet. He complimented both victims on their feet and asked if he could touch them. Both victims declined and tried to ignore him. Russell then followed both victims to their apartments and forced his way inside. He sexually assaulted one victim and tried to sexually assault the other victim, but she was able to push him out of her apartment.

Deputy District Attorney Allison Dunham states, “The defendant’s sexual perversion led to acts of violence that terrified these innocent women. He will now face significant consequences for these crimes and will have to register as a convicted sex offender for the rest of his life.”

Under the plea agreement, Russell will be sentenced to a stipulated 6 years and 10 months in prison. Once he is released on parole, he will be required to register as a convicted sex offender. Sentencing is scheduled for November 12, 2013 at 8:30 a.m. in Department 61 of the Sacramento Superior Court.

 

Foot fetishists around the globe (or at least in Sacramento’s BDSM community) might take umbrage to being painted with the same toenail brush as an avowed attacker of women.

Either way, we take it DDA Dunham isn’t a New York Jets fan.
