Report: Former Professor Forced Students to Pierce His Chest With Hooks, Hang Him From Trees

A professor at Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas, has resigned in the wake of a bizarre, gruesome report that accuses the now-former political science teacher of coercing students into aiding him with something called the “Sundance Ritual.” As part of the ritual, Professor Jeff William Justice reportedly pressured several students into hanging him from the trees at his house using hooks attached to nothing but the skin on his chest.

In the police report and accompanying nine-page witness statement (which have been provided to Gawker by Tarleton’s student newspaper and which you can read in full below), an unnamed student describes how Professor Justice tried repeatedly to invite a group of male students over to his home, only to eventually bombard them with the painful, Native American ritual.
