NORWALK, Conn. (Crime Library) — A once prominent businessman and Cub Scout leader has been sentenced to a prison term for impersonating his mistress and posting an ad on the Internet requesting someone abduct and rape her.
Albert Hsu, 43, pled guilty in state Superior Court Monday to first-degree attempted kidnapping and trafficking in personal identification information. For his crimes, Hsu was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison. As part of his sentencing guidelines, Hsu will be required to register as a sex offender and is banned from having any contact with his victim.

Hsu's case dates back to Feb. 26, when an unidentified woman notified the New Canaan Police Department that someone posing as her had posted an explicit personal ad to Collarme.com, a bondage and fetish site that hosts personal ads and offers users the ability to chat and communicate with one another. According to the website's homepage, the site is "the largest BDSM community on the planet." Long-time readers of Crime Library will recall that it was one of the adult Web sites that abuser and wife-murderer Woody Woodring used when searching for a mistress.
When investigators viewed the ad, they were shocked to discover that it not only contained the woman's photograph and personal contact information, but it also listed her home and work addresses, motor vehicle license plate number, and information on which train she takes to work every day. The premise of the ad was even more surprising. According to police, the ad said that the woman wanted to be kidnapped and raped as part of a sex fantasy.
