A university professor (62), who taught logic, over a twenty year period called over a thousand of his female students to his office, where he would beguile them with logic into allowing him to fondle their breasts.

He used the same argument each time, and only recently did a student manage to see through it, resulting in his arrest.

His technique was bizarre, but highly logical:

First the professor would call his chosen students to his office, for a lesson in logic:

“I can touch you without laying so much as a finger on you” he would say.

The perplexed students would naturally tend to respond “Impossible.”

If they did, he would follow through with “If I can’t do it, I’ll give you ¥1,000.”

If the student agreed to the “wager”, he would immediately pull out his wallet, hand them a ¥1,000 note, and then begin brazenly fondling their breasts.

Those students who complained of sexual harassment or worse, he would silence with the following line of argument: “As you in fact gave verbal assent to the contract and accepted the ¥1,000 fee, the contract is complete. It’s meaningless to try to take this to court.”

He continued this same tactic for some 20 years without issue, and his victims are thought to number over a thousand. None it seems could overcome his logical arguments, or possessed knowledge of the fact that illegal contracts are unenforceable.

Only recently it seems did a student actually bring this to the attention of the proper authorities; he was soon arrested on charges of indecent assault.

Police are scathing, and are look at adding as many charges as they possibly can: “He abused his knowledge of logic to undertake this dastardly scheme.”

Via (the very dubious) Kyoko.

This unfortunate career of minor infamy certainly place the professor’s reputation in the gutter, but we must also wonder at either the intelligence, or the virtues of his student victims.

Buying his line says little about their wits, whilst settling for a bargain basement groper’s fee of 1,000 also says even less about them…
