A charity foundation’s former accountant, accused of embezzling heart disease research funds to pay an Ohio dominatrix to beat him, pleaded guilty today to grand larceny and admitted that he stole more than $237,000.

Abraham Alexander, 45, of East Meadow, N.Y., admitted he stole the money from the Cardiovascular Research Foundation between Nov. 2, 2003, and April 20, 2005, by using company credit cards and writing checks to himself.

State Supreme Court Justice Renee White promised Alexander a maximum two to six years in prison when she sentences him May 2 but said she could shortened the term to as little as one to three years, depending on how much of the $237,162 he pays back.

White ordered that Alexander, in jail since he was arrested in November, remain held without bail.

At least $11,000 stolen by Alexander, who was an accounts payable executive, went to pay Through the Looking Glass, an online company run by Columbus-based dominatrix, Lady Sage, according to the Manhattan district attorney’s Robert Morgenthau’s office.

Lady Sage’s Web site features numerous photographs of the 43-year-old pain professional in a leather, metal-studded thong and bra, high-heeled lace-up boots, a leather dress and in what appears to be a red latex rubber evening dress.

Now there is stupid, and there is "Oh Brother. I simply cannot believe how stupid". This would be a clear case of the latter.

At $250 per hour, Lady Sage's bill adds up read fast.

I have this sneaking suspicion that he'll get a different type/kind of abuse - what a creep.

"At least $11,000 stolen by Alexander, who was an accounts payable executive, went to pay Through the Looking Glass, an online company run by Columbus-based dominatrix, Lady Sage,"

For that much money you ought to get an in person Dominatrix not an online one - he should demand is money back..or at least grovel for it back.

"How about I pay it all back, Judge, and instead of jail you keep me in your basement and beat me?"

$237,000 between Nov. 2, 2003, and April 20, 2005, at $250/hour? That's almost two hours per day. Ouch!

I suspect he'll get that for free once in jail.

Jaques Chirac is the best Dominatrix.

I heard that the money was used to pay for her to fly to New York to give him a spanking, so he did get an "in person" encounter.

Hardly an exec. He was an accounts payable clerk.

This has got to go to the top of my "Things you don't really expect to see in a headline" list.

Wonder if she'll make him beg for four to twelve.
