While most of us in the BDSM community try to spread education and positive experiences, there is always one rotten ball-gag that ruins all the hard work and good faith that’s been accumulated up until then.
One couple did it with a gun.
Andrew Charles Shinault, 23, had been dating Paloma Williams, 24, for a couple of weeks. They were in the middle of a whirlwind passionate cluster of sexual escapades when something went terribly wrong.
First,
It’s important to stress that a love of knives or guns during play is very much a real thing. However, anyone with half a brain (and even a basic understanding of R.I.S.K. and S.S.C.) would know that sharp blades and real bullets are just frigging stupid.
But,
The couple went ahead and decided to rub the pistol all over their bodies during foreplay.
Oh… and police later found out they were on drugs
He was on methamphetamine for two hours before. Allegedly so was she but also with fentanyl.
So, while he was sitting on the edge of the bed, and she was between his legs, Shinault tells the police that the safety must-have “accidentally” switched off while they were going at it. The poor girl ended up with a serious chest wound that she died from later on while in the hospital.
Although the man swears it wasn’t intentional, the police didn’t believe him for a second.
Either way,
It was a series of dumb choices that led to death.
And yes, I might be coming across as a bit cold and harsh about this – after all, someone is going to jail and others are mourning the loss of their daughter. But I look at it the same as someone choosing to get plastered and drive. What if they had decided to play with a gun somewhere there were other people? What if his family (while downstairs) and been hit?
When it comes to kinky play that involved dangerous items or actions, it needs to be done with a 100% sober head and a thorough understanding of what they’re getting into.
Stay safe out there! We don’t want more situations like this.
