Firefighters prosecuted for hazings that occurred in the 80s & 90s
Two senior fire officers in the U.K. are facing four counts of indecent assault and 10 counts of false imprisonment for firehouse hazing incidents from 1988 to 1997. The victims were recruits assigned to Green Watch at Tilbury station in Essex.
Maybe this crew was the inspiration for the group of Texas firefighters and chief officers arrested for in an ugly hazing incident earlier this year. In both firehouses there were allegations sausages were used to violate the victims sexually.
Firefighters have claimed they were tied to a stretcher and hung up in the air, locked in a small room which was filled with water and then urinated upon through a skylight window, and bent over a gym horse and having a sausage pushed up their bottom.
One firefighter claims he was clingfilmed to a lamppost and had ice blocks attached to his private parts, the jury was told.
In another incident a man claims he was taken outside and had a muscle relaxant rubbed over his private parts.
