Presentation Transcript

  1. Autoerotic Asphyxia • Obtaining sexual excitement from hypoxia (lack of oxygen - hypoxyphilia). • Near strangulation or suffocation (usually while engaged in masturbation). • Believed to enhance sensation and orgasim intensity.

  2. Autoerotic Death • Death due to “suspected” autoerotic asphyxiation • Refers to an unanticipated death as a result of participating in this sexual activity.

  3. Typical Autoerotic Asphyxiation • Denotes ligature asphyxiation due to some type of binding around the neck. • Typically there is an escape strategy or release mechanism to be used before losing consciousness. • Difficulty is determining if the deceased intended to commit suicide.

  4. Atypical Autoerotic Asphyxiation • Does not involve ligature binding around the neck. • They achieve sexual gratification by other means, such as plastic bags covering the head; facemasks; compression of the chest or abdomen; submerging face into water.

  5. Autoerotic Death • Recorded numbers of death are estimated. • 250 – 1200 in “North America” • Distressed family members who may discover the deceased in a “compromised” condition may feel the need to alter the situation.(To make it look like a suicide or homicide.)

  6. Autoerotic Death • Primary “victims” of Autoerotic Deaths are: • White, Young, Middle-class, Unmarried Males. • 30% are found nude. • 25% are found wearing women’s clothing. • Often times, pornographic materials and sexual aids are present.

  7. “The Choking Game” • Adolescents • Participants obstruct normal flow to the brain (cerebral hypoxia – low oxygen to the brain), to achieve a brief euphoric state. • There is a rush of blood flow to the brain when the obstruction is removed. • Usually not done for autoerotic purposes. • Practice often results in a loss of consciousness and occasionally death.

  8. “The Choking Game” • Also known as: • Black Hole, Suffocation Roulette, Space Cowboy, California High, Blackout, Airplaning, Sleep-holder, Rising Sun, Flat-lining, Funky Chicken and Space Monkey. • The deceased individual was not intending to die. • 2008 Reported 82 “Choking Game” deaths. Prevalent among 9 – 15 year olds. • 2:1 Ratio of Males to Females.
