Two men from Newport in Gwent, United Kingdom, have admitted being part of an extreme body modifications plot involving videos posted on a lucrative ‘eunuch maker’ website.
David Carruthers, 61, and Janus Atkin, 37, who were charged to court following their involvement in the removal and cutting of penises, testicles, castration by clamping, and the insertion of needles into genitals, pleaded guilty on Thursday to conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm between 2016 and 2022.
Judge Mark Lucraft KC adjourned sentencing to March 4 and 5 alongside other co-conspirators. A third man, Stefan Scharf, 61, of no fixed address, was not asked to enter a plea to the same charge and his case was adjourned for a week.
The ringleader, Marius Gustavson, 46, of Haringey, north London, had admitted a string of charges at the Old Bailey. The wide-ranging conspiracy is said to have involved up to 29 offences of extreme body modifications on 13 victims, the removal and trade of body parts.
The procedures were allegedly filmed and uploaded to the ‘eunuch maker’ website Gustavson ran, and subscribers paid to watch.
