A HUSBAND who used an electrical cord to stimulate his wife during a night of "bizarre sex" allegedly gave her a deadly shock.
Toby Taylor first said his 29-year-old wife, Kirsten, was shocked by a hair dryer. But when police found burns on her body, Mr Taylor told police that he had clipped an electrical cord to his wife and plugged it into a power strip which he then turned on and off, the Associated Press reported.
Mrs Taylor was found unconscious on Thursday night at the couple's Pennsylvanian home. She was taken to York Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
Mr Taylor, 37, who was jailed yesterday on $133,733 bail for involuntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment charges, reportedly told authorities that he had used the technique on his wife in the past.
York Country coroner Barry Bloss said it was a case of "bizarre sex".
"I have never seen anything like this," Mr Bloss said.
"Even if you did it before, you have to know you could kill someone.''
Police chief, David Sterner, said Mrs Taylor was thought to have died from a heart attack caused by an electric shock.
Further testing of the electrical equipment and a toxicology test will determine the exact cause, he said.
