Sex Dungeon "Master' Charged With Animal Cruelty
THONOTOSASSA, Fla. (AP) - A man who called himself "Master Troy" has been
charged with operating a whips-and-chains sex dungeon in his home where customers could
hire prostitutes and even a dog.
"People have all sorts of fantasies," Terry Lynn Thomas said after he was
arrested in a raid Thursday. "That's one of the things I help them out with."
Thomas, 48, was charged with racketeering, prostitution and pornography offenses as
well as animal cruelty.
The raid came after an undercover detective responded to a magazine advertisement about
the dungeon in this rural Tampa suburb.
Three women were arrested along with Thomas on similar charges.
The raid also netted pornographic tapes Thomas allegedly had for rent. Investigators
said some tapes involved exotic animals such as eels, anteaters and water buffalo.
