Pro training, first penetrative encounter with Junior

Reflexions flat spring diaphragm a pro’s 1^st choice

Summer school:  I’m continuing escort training for Cyndi and Bea while we are here on Virgin Gorda. They are actually enjoying it as they get to train their vaginal muscles with stainless steel ball bearings. They are up to wearing a 1.25 inch solid steel set each ball weighing 4.61 oz. Having a 16 and an almost 18 y/o girl able to comfortably and confidently take pointe class with more than a half pound of stainless steel tightly gripped by the muscles of their vaginas is a major confidence building accomplishment and they enjoy sunbathing with them inserted and moving the balls one at a time up and down their vaginal barrels. Working with the 1.25 in. balls is about the heaviest weight practical and they have mastered the necessary grip quicker than I did.  

Training ball maintenance: There are some housekeeping issues when training with steel balls. The acidic Ph of the vagina can begin to corrode the surface after prolonged use as can training with them in chlorinated pool water or in salt water encountered with swimming and diving in the ocean even when washed thoroughly after each use. To prevent this, a small amount of a high quality silicone intimate lube can be used to coat the balls prior to insertion.  We use DiveGel+. That serves two purposes it makes the ball harder to grip increasing the strength and stamina required to wear them and prevents the vaginal fluids or any water flooding the vagina from interacting with the polished surface of the steel ball. 

Pelvic requirements for training with steel balls: While all women can get some benefit from training with 4.6 oz steel balls while lying on our backs to get the full benefit – being able to stand, walk, dance and swim with them inserted - a woman needs a pronounced post-pubic vault in which the balls can rest against the back of the pubic bone even when the muscles in the vaginal barrel are gripping them. Otherwise the balls will drop out when the woman stands or bears down for a bowel movement and relaxes her grip. A very high percentage of women have deep post-pubic vaults, but a few don’t and some of those who want to be capable of the full range of escort services will have surgery to create a deep post-pubic vault just to be able to effectively use a diaphragm and heavy vaginal training balls.

Pro level vaginal training:  Being able to successfully manipulate vaginal balls while a diaphragm is inserted and a silicone lube is being used to protect the steel surfaces of 4.6 oz balls from the acidic environment is one of the ultimate vaginal skills demonstrating the strength, stamina and agility of a woman’s vaginal muscles. The dome of the diaphragm slippery with natural lube as well as silicone lube makes manipulating the heavy balls up and down the vaginal barrel a challenge, but with dedication it is an achievable goal.  

For Cyndi and Bea’s training they are wearing Reflexions FS latex diaphragms just as the professional girls do because (as returning readers will recall) a properly sized and correctly inserted Reflexions is extremely difficult to under-thrust, even for the most experienced swordsman and the wonderfully stretchy dome has much better heat transfer properties than does a silicone device. Personally, I think Reflexions develops a stronger seal so I usually wear Reflexions, over a Sucker, when with a man who has a very high fertility probability either from testing his semen or his paternity record with his partners.   

As I’ve mentioned before the Reflexions flat spring latex diaphragm is the style preferred by professional escorts where I live. Many of the young ones who have grown up with hormonal contraceptives are now switching to the Reflexions diaphragm, for two reasons; they are tired of hormonal side effects and there is a growing interest from their clients in having sexual encounters with women protected only by a cervical barrier. Most of the girls have tried FemCap and found it unsatisfactory either because it didn’t fit correctly or because it hurt their clients so the Professionals are returning to their grandmother’s cervical barrier, the diaphragm.

Dolphins and diaphragms: Today I am CD 20 and had my first penetrative encounter with Junior! For my encounters with him I’m wore a Sucker screwed down tight on my cervix and my standard 80 mm Reflexions FS latex D over it.  He saw me coming in the zodiac and met me on the surface over the lava tube. I anchored to the dive buoy that has a deco stop rope attached and checking my gear – My vintage beavertail jacket, an OTS Guardian FFM, a 130 cu ft HP steel tank of Nitrox and a Scuba Pro Ladyhawk BC - one last time then went over the side of the zodiac and Junior was all over me immediately I was in the water and I let him push me to the bottom.

I was lucky Junior took me to the bottom in the lava tube where it is relatively smooth and clear of sand because of the current. I was glad to have the cage over my K-valve as he pushed me along the bottom until my tank hit some lava rock where it caught. I was worried that if I was dragged along a sandy bottom sand could get stirred up and get into our moving parts or the valves on my FFM. Junior’s penis is about 2 inches in diameter and he had no problem finding where to place it to push it into me.  As I wrote above I’ve been working on strengthening my grip and since there was no foreplay involved I thought I’d get right to the purpose of our encounter and initiate the fluid transfer by contracting my muscles around his glans and got almost immediate results.  

I was so glad I was wearing the Reflexions as I could feel the soft dome stretch when he thrust into both my fornices, but particularly the anterior one where the latex squeezed his glans. He liked that enough that by the third time he came in me - he had nine other ejaculations during that 35 minute encounter - he learned to aim for my anterior fornix while my muscle contractions milked his shaft.

I think there is misinformation about the velocity of a dolphin’s ejaculate. While it’s very fast having him cum in me wasn’t harmful or even uncomfortable nor were any of the other encounters I had with Freckles several years ago.  Junior filling me with his thick bioadhesive semen feels like a sort of soft fisting (because of the quantity of his load) before it squirts out of me around the shaft of his penis in a thick cloud.  There is so much of it! Studies have shown that an adult male can produce more than 60 ml of semen per ejaculation which, if you think of a human male’s orgasm as releasing up to 5 ml of semen, is twelve times the amount of genital fluid! Then there is the fact that during a normal breeding encounter a male dolphin may ejaculate ten or more times so during our encounter I became covered in semen since the current was carrying it over my body and head where it stuck to the lens of my FFM making it difficult to see even though I’d wipe it off each time he came in me. . Fortunately dolphin semen doesn’t coagulate a few minutes after release as some animals do to prevent another male’s sperm from reaching the females egg.

Afterward: When he was finished he withdrew nuzzled me gently away from the rocks where my tank had been caught and seeing I was free swam away. At the time I had no idea that I’d been on the bottom with him for 35 minutes! I was exhausted, but elated to have had such a loving encounter with another intelligent species and be able to enjoy and tell about it afterward. I didn’t inflate my BC just finned up to the deco stop at 30 feet and clipped on for a 15 minute ‘just-in-case’ decompression stop before surfacing and climbing into the zodiac I use as a diving platform.  Unlike human semen dolphin ejaculate doesn’t liquefy 20 minutes after release so I was still Kegeling out his thick semen as I pulled the zodiac up on the beach.

 

Death rubber, Chi and Trimix

OTS Guardian FFM with ambient breathing valve and comm. unit

Bea’s dive training: Bea’s academic work has her on the dean’s list so she shouldn’t have any problem with finals in a few weeks. Now that summer is approaching I had our divemaster qualify her for recreational diving with Trimix so she can dive to the bottom of Adolph’s deep water training facility with me. I wouldn’t let her near Adolph alone because she is just his type, but he has the only heated deep water pool, it’s a bit more than 200 ft deep, where we can go to the bottom in bikinis or nude and she should be safe with me. She sometimes wears contacts to change her eye color so I had her fitted with a ‘splatter mask’ to add to her Slit Kit. Returning readers may remember that a splatter mask is a pair of very large gas permeable soft contact lenses of the latest silicone formulation worn to minimize the effects of having semen splattered in the eyes during a sexual encounter. A splatter mask is also useful for keeping sweat out of the eyes while SCUBA diving.

Electronic medical records and death rubber: I mentioned in an earlier post that its difficult finding new latex death rubber cervical barriers as my old ones wear out. Returning readers will recall that a ‘death rubber’ is a cervical barrier (diaphragm or cervical cap) that was being worn when the woman died while having sex. Almost all are diaphragms as the only cap now generally available is FemCap which can be worn comfortably while swimming, but is subject to squeeze when worn while diving to any appreciable depth. Almost all escorts using cervical barriers wear latex Reflexions flat spring diaphragms even though they must be avoided by women with latex allergy, don’t last as long as silicone and for some women can contribute to UTIs. Reflexions is so popular because of latex superior heat transfer properties, the softer stretchier dome and the fact that it is very difficult for even the most skilled man to intentionally under-thrust the rim. But for dive-sex Reflexions is a must because it’s the only diaphragm that can be effectively worn as flood insurance below ten meters since its flat spring rim will not distort due to water pressure. My size is an 80mm, but Bea takes the smallest size, a 65mm so as death rubber they can be extremely difficult to find.

Fortunately most reproductive health clinics and pharmacies in this area have converted their paper medical records to electronic ones on-line. There is no way I would have been able to track the fitting and sale of diaphragms by myself so I hired a data mining company to collect and format the information in a form I can use to see which practitioners are performing fittings, who is being fitted with what and where they are buying their diaphragms and caps. Not surprisingly our clinic fits and sells a significant percentage and I recognize the names of all of our trainees and our casino’s (Pirate’s) stable of elite escorts who are all fitted with Reflexions there. I also recognized the names of the girls who flow through Adolph’s training facility and use Reflection for flood insurance most of whom end up working as Towel-Girls at Splash, his underwater sex club, where the turnover of girls is quite high.

I was pleased that Adolph’s girls appeared in the inventory because they are less experienced, take the greatest risks and are far more likely to have serious accidents making them likely candidates for death rubber harvesting. Also making Adolph’s girls a rich hunting ground for a death rubber for Bea is that a surprising percentage of them have purchased 65mm Reflexions. I had fitted a lot of the girls and I knew that for many a 65mm was much too small to provide a proper fit when worn for flood insurance. Then it occurred me that they were wearing that size in order to offer a masochistic experience to clients wanting penis torture from ramming the rim. It’s also very uncomfortable for the woman to have a too small flat spring rim rammed by a client’s penis and in dive gear on the bottom of an encounter pool it can be claustrophobic, which may help explain the high turnover in Splash Towel Girls.

Chi and Me: In traditional Chinese culture, qì (also chi or ch'i) is an active principle forming part of any living thing. Qi is frequently translated as "life energy", "life force", or "energy flow". Qi is the central underlying principle in traditional Chinese medicine and martial arts. The literal translation of "qi" is "breath", "air", or "gas".

I use the anglicized form ‘Chi' to stand for the portion of a woman’s life force that remains with her diaphragm if she dies during intercourse while wearing it. One summer in Montreal years ago, working as a latex model when the ballet Co. I was with was on hiatus, I discovered wearing other women’s diaphragms (don’t ask, it’s complicated) was a huge turn-on. When I accidentally wore the keepsake Ortho All-Flex of a roommate’s dead sister killed during her rape I was fascinated to find a portion of her life force was still in the diaphragm. With more experience I found that seemed to occur only when the previous owner died during sex. Not only that but that element of the dead woman’s Chi combines with my own while I wear her diaphragm giving me greater confidence and assertiveness as well as practical knowledge from the former owner’s life experiences. If I wear a particular death rubber frequently enough, after about ten or twelve times, I become able to mentally experience more details from the former owner’s life as I become more comfortable with her Chi. It’s to the point now that I can recall the previous owner’s sexual encounters had with lovers while wearing the diaphragm I have inserted. So far I have avoided recalling the encounter during which she died thinking I might not survive the experience.

Bea and Chi: By equipping Bea with death rubber diaphragms of her own I’m going to try to moderate her attitude about men from sexual aggression to sexual assertiveness using the previous owner’s Chi. Chi moderation has worked very well for me to curb some extremely dangerous behaviors so I’m hoping it will work for Bea because since she participated in the private coaching sessions with Brian she has become a much greater risk taker than is good for someone of her age and experience.

Bea’s social education begins

A C-string invisible thong panty

The photo: The C-string panty eliminates panty lines in tight skirts and slacks and covers the head of a Penetrator plug when the wearer is performing on stage in pasties and C-string with her plug inserted.

Bea becomes my protégé: Now that I’ve taken a personal interest in her I’ve arranged for her to stay with me for training over the summer holiday as her mom is now in an acute care facility. As my protégé she will be taught all I know about seduction then be presented into society to make the most of her considerable talents. I’ll love watching her cutting a swathe through the men in society breaking hearts and mind-fucking contenders left and right as her favors are competed for. She definitely has a seriously kinky side so one of the first things is to find her a 65mm Reflexions death rubber as I’ve found the Chi of the former owner can be a huge confidence boost when I’m feeling tentative.

Bea, her Reflexions and ‘cervical grip’: Returning readers will remember that I recently wrote about fitting Bea with her first latex diaphragm, a 65mm flat spring Reflexions. The advantages of wearing a flat spring latex diaphragm are better heat transfer characteristics and it’s nearly impossible to under-thrust. Under-thrust protection is very important since she is too small for an IUD and she will be continuing her training encounters with escort candidates and possibly Brian. Also with Reflexions, on the sensual side there is the marvelous feeling that I’ll call ‘cervical grip’ when wearing it with the dome under significant vacuum while diving or pumped down in a hyperbaric chamber under positive pressure.

I hadn’t had the opportunity to take her to Adolph’s multi-bed hyperbaric chamber to see if the seal of her Reflexions was good enough that the dome would hold a strong vacuum to sustain her cervical grip until she broke the seal. Though she has deep soft vaginal rugae and it seemed to me that the rim should seal well enough to develop and retain a strong vacuum you can’t tell for sure until the individual actually puts her diaphragm under vacuum.

It wasn’t the best time for either of us since we were both on our periods. I was CD1 and flowing lightly and she was CD5 and over her heavy days for the month. But I had a patient from The Lorelei, who I was going to try and fit for a high-vac dome so time in the chamber was available and we took it. We emptied our diaphragms then reinserted making sure that they were positioned correctly and were comfortable. Then I had the chamber operator take us down slowly to 100 feet as we adjusted to the pressure and the air was squeezed out of the domes and the latex membranes were stretched over our cervixes and into our anterior fornices. Bea loved the feeling. She said it was as though her uterus was being gently pushed higher inside her, which indeed it was, slightly. It’s somewhat the same feeling a woman gets when she wears a pessary for a minor uterine prolapse, minus the pain and other side effects associated with the prolapse.

Bea kitted out for underwater sex: Now that I have more control over her training I had her kitted out for dive-sex. Fortunately she is already PADI open water qualified which saves us a world of time as we can get straight to diving with male escorts. That will be a help to the men, having Bea in their rotation as there aren’t that many St Lucy’s girls who are interested in sex underwater even in a properly equipped and well heated pool. I’ll admit a girl does have to be adventuresome and have a raging libido to enjoy dive-sex so Bea should fit right in.

I had our divemaster fit her with an Oceans Technology Systems Guardian full face mask (OTS Guardian FFM) with an ambient breathing valve (abv) that saves air when on the surface and a comm. Link so she can talk to her dive partner while under water. But the really practical thing about FFMs for dive-sex is that during orgasm you don’t have to worry about losing your reg if you open your mouth to scream which, at least for women, lets us forget about equipment and just enjoy sucking gas and our partner’s thrust technique.

Pool pointes, silicone toe-shoes with replaceable satin ribbons, come in standard U.S. women’s shoe sizes so there was no problem in having her fitted at Gepetto’s fetish shoe amd; boot boutique. The pointes came with a full set of lead platform weights from one to twenty pounds in two pound increments. Returning readers will remember the weights can be screwed onto the platforms of the buoyancy neutral shoes to hold the wearer in the vertical position under water or with the heavier weights on the bottom like a divers lead weighted boots.

Brian and the Mumps: I haven’t heard from Brian for almost a month. Callisto called today to say that he had had a very bad case of Mumps and wondered where he had gotten it since no one in his classes at the university have had it recently. I’m fairly certain that I know where he contracted it, from one of his St Lucy’s Muses though none of them presented any symptoms of the virus. A significant percentage of cases are asymptomatic and St Lucy’s did have a few presenting cases about that time even though we had all been inoculated with the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine. Callisto said that his testicles had become swolen and very painful and that he seems to be taking a very long time to recover. Side effects are rare but can be very serious in adults. I have no way t prove it but he spent so much time privately coaching Bea that I think he probably got it from her even though she presented no symptoms and seemed in top physical condition during their repeated sexual encounters. Callisto said he has revised his schedule to cancel all travel for the rest of the academic year, which is a relief since I hadn’t decided exactly how I was going to prevent Brian privately coaching Bea as he said he intended to do and still keep him happy.

Terri is Splashed

Principal F style pointes and a FemCap

Terri takes a hit: One of the more senior Towel Girls, Terri, took the ‘offer’ spot of the TG who was fired for shooting up with testosterone. [For more about that see my entry for October 30, 2010] Gigi had thought she would have a chance at the position, but age, experience and being a favorite of several influential club members got Terri the job. Physically she is very attractive and has great skills and stamina, but her vagina while tight is fairly shallow so she has had to make sure she takes a well hung stallion in positions where he can’t penetrate her too deeply. Talent has kept her in the offer spot – though there is a probationary period associated with any new appointment at Splash - even with that limitation because she is a favorite with most of the more modestly hung (up to 6.5 inches) members.

However, a German stallion (8+ inches) and friend of Adolph came in for his regular romp and found his usual Towel Girl was out with a UTI so he was offered Terri. His name is Otto and he is infamous at Splash for rough sex regardless of how deep his partner is so she was terrified, but obligated to accept him or appear to management as being unwilling to take risks and it’s the risk taking that Splash Towel Girls are known for. He wanted dive sex so she took him into one of the private twenty ft deep encounter pools.

It happened that Adolph had asked me to go with him to Splash to give him my opinion of the Club’s operation now that it has been open since late February of this year. So we were in the operations room when Terri was assigned to Otto. I asked if he wanted to say hello to Otto, but he just rubbed his hands together smiled and said no, that he wanted to see how they got along and that, “their encounter would be a good test of the depth of talent that we have at the club”.

Terri chooses FemCap: When I talked to her later Terri said she expected Otto to ram her cervix which is what he is infamous for, but she thought she had a chance to get some cervical thrust buffering by wearing a FemCap which she hoped would transfer some of the energy of his thrusts to the walls of her vagina rather than it all going directly to her cervix as it would through the thin stretchy dome of the diaphragm she normally used as a gas guard. She had two FemCaps; one had its removal strap trimmed off which allows another 5 mm of penetration depth before there is any contact between a partner’s glans and the dome covering her cervix. The other was unmodified. She decided that she would wear the unmodified FemCap hoping the strap might hurt him when he rammed her and cause him to back off a bit.

Terri, like a lot of other working girls in our area, is part of the clinical trial of the GyneFix IUD and so is still cycling naturally. She was fertile and let Otto watch as she tried to insert her FemCap over her ripe (soft, high and open) cervix, but she was nervous and had so much trouble getting it in that he finally had to help her position it correctly and push it on to her cervix for her. He also had trouble getting it over her cervix until she pushed down to force her cervix toward the entrance to her vagina so he could reach it. Adolph and I were watching on the pool’s security cam and I squirmed as I watched Otto forcing the dome over Terri’s cervix.

Thrust buffering Vs. Semina: Terri said she knew it was a gamble that the thick silicone dome of her FC would be enough to save her, but she hoped the stiffer dome would provide more thrust buffering than the super thin transparent silicone membrane of the Semina coil spring diaphragm that she and the other TGs typically wear for submerged encounters. She thought she would be in trouble if management learned she was using a FemCap, but it was her only chance to try and minimize the pain she knew Otto was going to cause her. Adolph insists that all the Towel Girls wear Seminas as gas guards because the girls, and more importantly their clients, think the pink transparent silicone device is both sexy and beautiful and the clients can feel the girl’s cervix through the transparent rubber membrane. Semina is only effective as a gas guard down to 30 feet, but that is all a TG needs working in 20 ft deep encounter pools and it can be worn regardless of where the TG is in her cycle, unlike FemCap that can’t be worn safely while menstrual.

Once Terri’s FC was in place she inserted a 10 ml applicator of Semécide, the intimate lube/spermicide combination made with dive-gel and 4% Octoxynol-9 and spread a finger full of it over her labia to help with underwater insertion. Then she put on a Splash signature swimsuit, a white Gottex string thong bikini that tied at the hips and between her breasts so it could be easily removed while she was in full dive gear. The fabric of Splash swimsuits becomes transparent when wet so while she was covered her breasts and waxed vulva would be on full display. The intent of the bikini is as a delaying tactic and part of foreplay to keep the client busy playing with her nipples and labia while she tries to get as aroused as possible before penetration by an impatient client.

The Dive: We watched on the HD video in the Operations center as Otto helped her into her SCUBA set; a very short fat 80 cu/ft aluminum tank (so she was accessible from the rear), an Ocean Technologies Guardian FFM and a ScubaPro Diva buoyancy control vest and cinched her shoulder straps and waist belt snug so her tank backboard wouldn’t slide around. She pulled on her FFM and tightened the straps on her head harness to seat the seal against her face. Then she closed the ambient breathing valve on her mask and tested the seal. Finding it satisfactory she opened ambient breathing valve (ABV) again and entered the water. While she waited for Otto she inflated and vented her BCD to make certain she could control her buoyancy while she watched Otto put on his SCUBA gear and enter the water. They had discussed what Otto wanted and all he asked for was ‘ordinary vanilla sex while taking her from the rear’. That sounds pretty routine unless you’ve see Otto in action with his 9 inch long 2.5 inch diameter shaft and Terri knew what was in store for her.

They closed their ABVs, stepped off the shelf into deep water, vented their BCDs and started their descent. While sinking they both worked the equalization features of their masks to equalize the pressure in their sinuses and ears. On the bottom she tethered with ankle leashes attached to D-rings in the pool floor then added air to her vest until she was at positive buoyancy and held in a wide spread-eagle about fifteen feet below the surface and facing Otto. He began playing with her bikini. He was far more solicitous of her than he is with his regular TG who knew what to expect. Of course Terri knew from other TG’s accounts what to expect and while she should have been grateful for his attempt to arouse her she was near panic. Then Otto finished stripping off her of her bikini and it was Showtime!

The thrust: He swam around behind her, had her bend at the waist so her tank was out of his way and he spread her labia feeling for the entrance of her vagina. She had just been waxed at the first of the week so her mons veneris and vulva were baby soft and smooth and she remembers thinking how gently he fingered her. It didn’t last. She felt him position the tip of his shaft against her vaginal introitus then clamp his hands on both her hips grip her tightly and pull her towards him while with a massive thrust he rammed his shaft inside her. She remembers gasping as she felt him plunge into the depths of her and then she said things got chaotic. It was a single enormous thrust and she felt him going deeper and deeper and deeper and she wondered for an instant how she was going to take all that, but of course she already knew, she couldn’t! And then he hit the dome of her FemCap and kept going deeper. The dome of her cap collapsed from a combination of ambient water pressure and the force of his thrust and compressed the soft tissue of her ripe cervix while forcing her uterus up and back tearing the ligaments that held it in place. Only then did his pelvis slam into hers. She said later that she couldn’t breathe for what seemed like ages. Then she inhaled and as the first wave of pain washed over her she screamed and tried to wriggle out of his grasp, but to no avail. She was impaled on his shaft as surely as a butterfly is pinned to its specimen card in a museum.

She said she felt him withdraw and thought he realized she was badly hurt and that it was over, but it had only just begun! He continued to ram himself into her for another five minutes. And during that time he came up underneath her and split the pad of fat, the mons veneris, that protected her pubic bone, gave her a class 2 vaginal tear and seemingly detached her uterus from its anchors so she could feel it just flopping around in her belly as he continued to ram her cervix. The good news was that her uterus did not rupture and the ER doctor said that the dome of her FemCap probably prevented her cervix from splitting. She doubled over wracked by crushingly intense cramps and then nausea swept over her and she gagged and tried not to vomit in her mask as she reached for the Velcro fasters on her ankle leashes. After several tries she managed to get them open and hit the inflator on her buoyancy vest and started their ascent and at that point she vomited in her mask. . On their way to the surface Otto tipped over the edge by her vaginal spasms shot his wad inside her.

The recovery: In the Operations center Adolph had already alerted the EMTs on duty and had an ambulance on the way. We rushed down to the encounter pool and helped Otto get her out of her equipment and pull her out of the water. By then the EMTs (two experienced women) were there and they managed to clear her airway and get her breathing again while in the background I could hear Otto complaining to Adolph that he only got off once and wanted another Towel Girl.

(To be continued.)

An ABV hit

A Guardian FFM showing ambient breathing valve

A Suffocation hit: We are puzzled as to why the niece of a casino owner was killed. She was 19 y/o and had been visiting for the summer. Taryn had been at a party with her a week or so back and said she was smart, funny, confident and a delight to be around. Everyone not aware of the details thinks she died from some sort of an undiagnosed medical condition. She was an experienced diver and was out of the water when she died. They found her sitting on a bench on the pool surround of her uncle’s home leaning back against the wall dressed in the same style and color neoprene DUI wetsuit that her aunt wears. She was wearing all her equipment; booties, flippers, gloves, hood and weight belt and was ready to dive. She had suffocated while wearing her new gold silicone Ocean Technologies Guardian FFM similar to the one shown at the top of this entry. Her ambient breathing valve, (ABV) the knurled knob on the right side of the visor, was closed and the valve on her air tank (which was full) was turned off.

When her uncle found her she had been dead at least several hours and there was nothing the EMTs could do. Her uncle who is a sports diver thought she had been adjusting the fit and testing the seal on her new mask, the mask bag was beside the bench, and had some sort of seizure and that’s what he EMTs assumed also, until someone thought of looking at the security video to try and establish her time of death. That showed a woman in a bikini with a pareo around her hips, carrying a tote and wearing a wide brimmed sun-hat coming from the direction of an outside door from the back of the property and walking toward the teen. The teen is seen adjusting the straps on her head harness, closing the ambient breathing valve (ABV) which allows the diver to breathe ambient air while on the surface to save the air in her tank, then tugging on the straps again and opens the ABV to get air. The woman walks up to the girl pulls a squeeze bottle from her tote and sprays fluid onto the ABV. The teen’s hands start rise to her mask then drop back on her lap and her head slumps forward and she starts to topple forward off the bench. Sun-hat steps forward and catches the teen and pushes her back against the wall. As sun-hat turns you can see that she is wearing a cheek filter gasmask that had been hidden by the wide brim of her hat. Sun-hat reaches over and closes the ABV and makes sure the air valve on her tank is turned off so no air can get inside the teens mask. Sun-hat looked at the dive watch on her right wrist and stands there waiting for 7 minutes and 28 seconds before leaving in the direction from which she entered. From a close look at the video sun-hat seemed to be wearing latex surgical gloves, the gasmask may have been an old Czech M10 and was wearing sueded sole well worn white leather ballet slippers that left no prints.

Speculation: The uncle, a friendly competitor of mine, and I have worked some local charity events together and he knows of my interest in women’s violent deaths in Vegas. He wasn’t asking for my help, well not exactly, just for my thoughts about how this sort of thing could have happened to his family. He said after seeing the video the forensics people are testing for anesthetics, but haven’t come up with anything so far. Spraying the anesthetic into the ABV would have concentrated the fumes directly into the masks face cavity where there would have been no escaping the gas. I wondered about the contractor getting the wrong house, but it was daylight and all the homes are plainly marked though well separated so there is a lot of privacy in that neighborhood so hitting the wrong house seems very unlikely and the contractor was prepared to quickly immobilize a woman in dive gear with a minimum of effort. That she spent more than seven minutes watching her target die seems to suggest that she knew she had plenty of time with little fear of being interrupted and the watch on her right wrist indicates she might be left handed.

At this point I think the only reasonable scenario is that it was the right house, but the wrong woman was hit. It has to be that. It’s not like the teen was a high-profile celebrity or had stolen state secrets or something. She was just a pretty girl who would have been a second year student at Princeton this fall and her father is a doctor. The way I see it, everyone knows her aunt and uncle are into SCUBA diving and she was the same size and with probably a better figure (mostly hidden by the neoprene suit) than her aunt and was wearing a wetsuit identical to her Aunt’s. So in a hood and mask sun-hat couldn’t have seen that the teen’s hair color was different from her aunts. If it looks like a duck and acts like a duck it must be a duck, right? Not this time!

But if that’s what happened why would someone want to put out a contract on the aunt? She is 28 y/o with a lot of energy and personality and the 3rd trophy wife of her 52 y/o husband. They have been married less than a year and (rumor has it) she is making him very happy in bed. So happy that he has stopped sleeping around and they are talking about starting a family. She is very athletic and body conscious spending a lot of time at the gym and diving and is the youngest sister of the teen’s mom who lives in New Jersey with her husband. So where’s the motive for offing auntie? Oh, yeah, and auntie (trophy wife #3) has disappeared. Her husband said a small carryon bag and her passport is missing.

Taryn has a copy of the security video, but there is almost no action and certainly no struggle, just sun-hat walking up, the anesthetic sprayed on the ABV, the teen’s raised hands and slumping forward then sun-hat pushing the rubber clad teen back against the wall and closing her ABV. It’s probably too passive an off to be a big seller as a snuff video, but Tanaquil thinks it might appeal to the discriminating rubber fetishist collector who enjoys the subtleties of a female diver assassination, especially if the wrong woman was snuffed!
