RESOLVED By Corporal Punishment

This was another series of videos published by the sadly defunct Ravenhill Studios. While there were just six videos in the Beach Girls Spankings series and only four in Spankin' Down The Highway, there were no less than twenty-six videos under the RESOLVED By Corporal Punishment title. Again, the premise they wanted you to believe was that these girls were not actors, models or any kind of spanko, just ordinary American girl-next-door types who were willing to accept a spanking for financial gain. And again, as with the previous two series, they were to receive three bare-bottom punishments, usually for a timed five minutes, and the first of these was with the hand and the next two with implements chosen by Ravenhill.

However, whereas in the two previous series, the girls agreed to take a punishment purely for financial gain and the fun of being part of something a bit 'naughty', in this series, the concept was the girls had got themselves into a bit of a financial and legal mess. They got behind on rent or HP payments or something like that. The owner of the small business has threatened to take them to court. Now, the cost and time of a court case is unappealing to small businesses, so Ravenhill offers to pay in full of what the girls owe, if, in return, the girls agree to accept corporal punishment. Win-win. The business gets the money they're owed quickly and without wasting time in court, and the girls avoid getting a court judgment against them.  The other difference from the previous two series is that, in some cases here, it's Tierre's sidekick, Richard Lewis, who gets to administer some of the punishments or their "Head of Security" called Reginald.

In all cases, the situation and the option are explained to the girls in question, and they are required to sign some kind of legal document. And then the punishments commence. I would say that the first two punishments are generally rather harder than those we have seen in the previous videos, and the girls' bottoms are marked more heavily. Sometimes, when the cane is used, it is a rather lighter punishment. There is a short interview with the girl afterwards where they generally say it hurt a lot but was better than going to court. Some reflect on how it compared to the punishments they had while growing up.

The videos are rather shorter than the other series discussed before - they usually each had two girls being punished and lasted around an hour. In this series, there is only one girl per video, even when two are jointly responsible, and each one's punishment makes a separate video of about thirty to forty-five minutes in duration. In number two in the series, Debbie gets her full three-part punishment while her accomplice, Trina, watches on, clearly enjoying it. She looks a bit less confident towards the end as her own punishment draws close, and she makes up number three in the series.

There are tears in several cases - in one, a girl is crying after just the first half-dozen or so hand-smacks - but most can manage a bit of a smile by the end. Presumably, the reactions said something about whether or not they had experienced corporal punishment while growing up.
