Summary: A 22-year-old woman burns her boyfriend’s penis with a flat iron for cheating on her. The judge gives her a suspended jail sentence.
He cheated and they both got burned. In his case, literally.
Australian Bronwyn Joy Parker, 22, says she made a pact with her boyfriend after meeting him on Facebook: If he ever strayed, she could burn his penis with a flat iron.
In December of 2013, the boyfriend had a two-night tryst with his ex-lover. Parker soon discovered the affair and reminded him of the promise. She ordered him to remove his penis from his shorts. He complied, telling her she could “tap it” with the straightener.
Parker assured him she would not burn his testicles. Then she took his penis in one hand; with the other, she placed the straighteners on either side of the shaft. “I need not here say anything of the pain and shock which he then experienced,” the judge later commented.

The victim states his genitalia was “swollen, blistering and pussy and black in color.” But he was too embarrassed to seek treatment at first. When it became clear the damage was serious, he visited the Burns Unit of the Royal Adelaid Hospital and was told his member had suffered third-degree scars on each side.
Parker told the police she only applied the flat iron for a second or two. She thought it would feel like a sunburn. “To start off with…it didn’t look to bad,” she said. “[I]t just looked as if you had cooked a piece of meat,” she told authorities.
Earlier this week Judge Paul Muscat of the District Court of South Australia sentenced Parker to a nine-month prison sentence. He subsequently suspended the sentence after she entered an 18-month good behavior bond.
In Australia a person found guilty of an offense may put up a bond and promise to be on their good behavior for a stipulated period.
