Woman Sues Pressley Ridge CEO for Alleged Sex Assault, Hypnosis on His 'Magic Couch' Former Pressley Ridge Employee Claims She Was Assaulted, Then Fired in Retaliation By SARAH NETTER July 28, 2010 A Pennsylvania woman has filed suit against the CEO of a non-profit children's therapy services company, alleging that he sexually assaulted her during hypnosis sessions on his "magic couch" and then fired her in retaliation for speaking out. Susan Patroski is seeking $5 million in damages for what she claimed were repeated sexual assaults between December 2008 and December 2009, during what, she said, Pressley Ridge CEO B. Scott Finnell described as employee-mandated relaxation sessions. "I kept thinking this can't be. He's my friend," Patroski said today. "Friends don't molest friends. They just don't." Patroski, who worked as the company's human resources coordinator for two years, said she willingly submitted to what she thought were relaxation sessions that were going to be used to make a CD as part of an employee-wellness program. But, according to the lawsuit filed last week, Finnell, a licensed social worker, would allegedly hypnotize Patroski against her will during the closed-door sessions on what, she said, he called his "magic couch." "Finnell stroked Patroski's breasts and repeatedly brought her to orgasm," court documents claimed, "using the hypnotic suggestion that he would slowly count to five and when he reached five she would experience a rush of pleasure." Finnell, now the subject of a police investigation, the lawsuit alleged, could not be reached for comment. Pressley Ridge executive vice president and chief operating officer Susanne Cole denied the allegations in Patroski's lawsuit. ~snip~ |

"...and repeatedly brought her to orgasm," court documents claimed, "using the hypnotic suggestion that he would slowly count to five and when he reached five she would experience a rush of pleasure." He might see an increase in business if it is proven this really happened. |
