While most of us like to unwind after a hard day at the office with a bubble bath and a nice glass of Shiraz, a well-respected lawyer in the New York Attorney General's Office has been known to crack the whip.
Alisha Smith, the attorney who helped win a $5 billion settlement from Bank of America for a securities fraud case three years ago, lost her job yesterday when word got out that she was also working as a 'professional dominatrix'.
According to The New York Post, performing S&M under the pseudonym "Alisha Spark," the 36-year-old got paid to restrain and whip clients.
Eric Schneiderman, a spokesman for the state Attorney General, wouldn't comment on the particulars, but suffice to say an employee needs official permission to "engage in activities that earn them more than $1,000".
If Smith, or Spark, was aware of the violation, she wasn't too worried and openly held conversations about it on Twitter with another well-known dominatrix called Jade Vixen.
Although her account has since been deleted, past convos are still visible via Vixen's account. In one such tweet, Spark said: "I think both of us are decompressing from the excitement of @FetishWeekend."
Brings new meaning to the term restraining order, doesn't it?
