WAYNESVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Three men, including a former Topeka resident, accused of operating what police described as a sadomasochistic "dungeon" that included castrations have been sentenced to jail time.
Richard Peter "Master Rick" Sciara, his partner of 20 years Michael Mendez, and the man they called their slave, Danny Carroll Reeves, pleaded guilty to felony castration and maiming.
Sciara had worked as a physician's assistant at the Colmery-O'Neil VA Medical Center in Topeka from February 1976 to June 1999.
Superior Court Judge Dennis Winner said it was difficult to call the dungeon's willing patients "victims," but he said six castrations performed there were certainly a crime.
"I think this is a type of perversion that cannot be tolerated by society," Winner said during a sentencing hearing Thursday.

Perhaps a more detailed article will be forthcoming.
"Master Rick" Sciara, apparently.
Bigot.
LOL
Hey, be kind, he was meeting a societal need ;-) See this excerpt from the article on drudgereport:
"He said at least two of the men who visited the home were interested in extreme body modification.
They wanted Sciara to amputate their legs above the knees and had already each cut a finger off with garden shears to show their love for one another.
Sciara would not perform the amputation, he said.
The other men who had the procedures complained of testicular pain.
They included a computer programmer, a truck driver and an Army Reserve soldier, Patton said.
Some of the men had fake testicles called “nuteciles” implanted, and one had his penis removed entirely. Another man had the head of his penis cut off.
“(Sciara) felt like the medical system was not addressing the needs of this not-small group who had these needs, whether they were imagined or just emotional,” Patton said, likening the operations to abortions and breast enhancements."
Ashville is something of a deviant colony.
Jail time is rough no matter how you slice it.
