Guided by sharp minds and honed wisdom, philosophy professors are perhaps the last group of people expected to succumb to the temptations of the flesh.
But Professor John Forge, 77, who was found dead at the bottom of a canyon last month, was no ordinary philosophy professor.
Before he passed away on May 2 this year, Oxford University-educated Forge might've lived a pious life to outsiders. Still, the professor was about as degenerate as they get, it has been revealed.
Making sex workers sign $20,000-a-month agreements that required them to call him 'Daddy', hitting bongs and snorting cocaine were just some of the many vices the professor allegedly indulged in before he was found at the base of the Cataract Gorge in Tasmania, Australia.
The award-winning, multimillionaire philosophy professor was found dead at the bottom of the Cataract Gorge, in Launceston, Tasmania, just hours after a detective knocked on his door to request he attend a questioning session at the police station.
It is understood the academic was informed by police he was facing allegations he sexually assaulted a vulnerable woman, aged in her 30s, between 2019 and 2022.
