Boss Spanked Employees For Mistakes, Police Say

POSTED: 8:13 am EST November 10, 2004
RED BANK, Tenn. -- You can fire your workers, but you can't spank 'em.

Authorities in Red Bank, Tenn., have arrested and charged 57-year-old Paul Levengood with two counts of sexual battery.

Police say two 19-year-old women complained that Levengood would spank them when they made mistakes on the job at Tasty Flavors Sno Biz.

One of the women told police that on her first day at the Tasty Flavors Sno Biz, before any spanking, Levengood made her sign a statement giving him permission to "bust my behind any way he sees fit."

Police Sgt. Jay LaMance said the two women likely accepted the spankings instead of leaving immediately because they were brought up to respect anybody who is an authority figure.

Levengood is now free on $2,000 bond.

Proof that you should read everything before you sign it.

That carefully worded agreement apparently didn't protect him in the end. It sure came back to bite him. Guess it wasn't all it was cracked up to be.

That's something you don't see everyday.

That is ridiculous.....and the man should know better. I'd never tolerate a boss putting their hands on me....I'd rather be fired (of course, any supervisor stupid enough to slap me had better like riding in the back of ambulances

I hope he gets 20 yrs in prison...and is never allowed to supervise anyone again. By abusing his power as a big bully against teenage girls, IMO he's forfeited that right.
