There's an awful lot of kids out there who really, really want to go to college but don't have the money to go. Sure, there are scholarships, but they all have such insane requirements. What if there was a scholarship that only required you to be “ready” for school? Oh, and you have to submit to spankings if you don't follow the rules.

You wish we were joking.

Mr. Scholarship-Giver is Henry Allen Fitzsimmons, 54, and he owns the Envy Bar and Grill in Virginia Beach, Va. According to the original complaint filed against him, five women signed up for the Spencer Scholarship Program, beginning with a mother and her daughter. The daughter and a friend went with Fitzsimmons to pick up a boat, and were spanked with a fiberglass rod when they refused to complete certain chores.

One of the women left the program when they arrived back in Virginia Beach, but agreed to submit to another spanking when Fitzsimmons offered to pay for her daughter's birthday party. Once inside the motel room, though, she says changed her mind, and Fitzsimmons refused to let her leave. Finally she relented, and was whipped with a leather riding crop for twenty minutes.

Another woman met Fitzsimmons in a motel for what she says was a counseling session, but she ended up living with him on a weekly allowance of $200. Of course, she had to submit to spankings.

Fitzsimmons pleaded guilty to aggravated sexual battery and was sentenced to two years in prison.
