Syrup Seducer Gets Into Stickier Legal Situation
A man who allegedly secretly recorded a sticky sexual encounter is facing additional charges, according to court officials.

MONROE, CT — A Monroe landscaper who got 15 minutes of fame for seducing a woman by pouring maple syrup on his body was ordered to jail after he allegedly tampered with a witness.
Robert Somley, 52, was charged with voyeurism after police said he secretly recorded the sticky encounter and refused to delete the video when asked by his paramour, according to the Connecticut Post.
Somley was invited to the Howard Stern radio show, but a judge ordered him held in lieu of $150,000 bail after he was additionally charged with tampering with a witness and violation of a protective order.
