Lady Sas explains: „I only found out about the terrible tragedy late on and was shocked. I know her videos and how much of an influence she was in the femdom community. She was an original in a world of copies. She had femdom in her blood and could create masterful, inspiring scenes. We will sorely miss her and her creativity. 52 years – that is simply far too soon. Rest in peace, dear Melanie.“
