Mother / Dominatrix in Salem faces charges of prostitution

Mother in Salem faces charges of prostitution

April 7, 2007

Police charged a Salem mother with prostitution after investigators said her husband told patrolmen she had transformed the family basement into a dominatrix lair to earn extra money.

The husband talked about Paula Webb's bondage business after the couple got in an argument on March 16, police said. They said Stephen Webb, 54, showed them ropes, whips, a leather mask, and other accessories in a mock dungeon.

Detective William Jennings went undercover and answered an ad posted online.

With her 6-year-old and 9-year-old upstairs, Webb led the detective into the basement and agreed to have sex with him for $150, Jennings said yesterday. A moment later, Webb recognized him. "You look like a cop I used to know," she said, according to Jennings. "I said, 'Yeah, I'm Bill Jennings; you're under arrest.' "
