KANSAS CITY, MO - A Blue Springs woman is heading to prison for her shocking role in a sex trafficking ring in which she and another man "trained" her pre-teen daughter to perform sadomasochistic sex acts for money.


The 46-year-old woman, whose name is not being released to protect the identity of her daughter, pleaded guilty to federal commercial sex trafficking charges last September. She was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison without parole, plus she was ordered to pay $200,000 in restitution to the victim for medical services relating to current and future physical, psychiatric, or psychological care.

Prosecutors say that co-defendant Todd Barkau, 37, with the help of the victim's mother, got control of the then 12-year-old girl in 2000. With her mother's consent, Barkau sexually groomed and trained the child to become a BDSM (bondage-domination-sadism-masochism) sexual dominatrix. He did so by engaging in BDSM activities with the child himself, forcing her to engage in sexual activities with other men while he watched and using BDSM pornography over the Internet to teach her dominatrix skills and techniques.

When the child was 14 years old, Barkau, who lived in the home with the mother and daughter created a business out of the home where he advertised the child over the Internet as a 19-to-20-year-old BDSM dominatrix named "Mistress Alisha."

According to prosecutors, the victim's mother suggested the name "Alisha" for the child because it was her own former stripper name.

For two years, Barkau sold the child, as "Mistress Alisha," to sexually dominate men during online web sessions and in-person BDSM activities. This included, among other things, bondage, beatings, burning, and genital mutilation. The customers paid for the sexual services both via PayPal and with "tributes," or items in lieu of cash payment such as a DVD player, a cappuccino machine and other electronics.

Barkau, who also pleaded guilty for his role in the case, remains in federal custody awaiting sentencing. Under the terms of a plea agreement, prosecutors are recommending that Barkau receive a sentence of 25 years.
