How's this for a stockholm crazy boss? There was a story in the local paper a few months ago about a pet store boss who was sentenced to prison for abusing one of her employees, a slightly mentally challenged young man. She beat him with a wooden pole and a hammer and attacked his tongue with pliers, for five years. This guy was going home to his parents every day and hiding the bruises from them, until he was finally beaten to such a pulp that his dad took him to the hospital. And only then did the story come out.

Here's a description of the guy's injuries from the court file:

“Left eye: subconjunctival haemorrhage.

Face: peri-orbital bruises over both eyes, multiple short scars over fact and lips.

Tongue: split at the middle about 1.5 centimetres.

Body: haematoma and bruises all over the back, chest wall and abdominal wall. Multiple superficial skin abrasions.

Both upper limbs: multiple bruises, evidence of left shoulder injury.

Both lower limbs: multiple bruises.

Shallow ulcers about 1 centimetre over both right and left second toes.
