Dr John Forge was Oxford alumni and a professor at the University of Sydney where he conducted research on human morality, winning several awards.
The academic was found dead at the bottom of Cataract Gorge in Launceston, Tasmania last month.
Just hours before plunging to his death, a detective reportedly knocked on his door to request he attend the police station for questioning.
It’s understood that Dr Forge was facing allegations of sexual assault of a vulnerable woman in her 30s between 2019-2022, Daily Mail Australia reports.
Now his alleged escort Skylar Silverstein has spoken out about her ex-client, saying she was in a “financial arrangement” with him where a so-called “contract” was written up.
Skylar’s claims are separate from the other allegations against Forge.
The note sickeningly outlined her “duties to her dearest daddy John”.
It reads: “She will do this by being a good, obedient girl, but above all, she will love him and try to please him in any way she can. Her love is her greatest gift.”
“[She] has a right to say what she wants, but daddy decides.”
After learning of Forge’s allegations, Skylar told Daily Mail Australia how upon reflection, their conversations were “creepy”.
She said: “He took advantage of the vulnerable.
“It makes me sick to my stomach.”
Skylar also claims the professor was proud of his reputation and was skilled at concealing his true self.
In reference to his sexual assault allegations, she said: “It is ironic he wrote a book about the morals of weapons, but yet, where was his moral obligation to this girl,
“I am going to have to go and have therapy because the person I thought I knew, wasn’t that person.”
The alleged victim’s mother told Daily Mail Australia that the detective working the case rang her after he was found dead at the bottom of the gorge.
She said: “‘It happened within an hour-and-a-half after the knock.
“He was living a double life and it was about to be uncovered.”
When discussing Forge’s alleged assault of her daughter, she said: “He was absolutely obsessed with her.
“It took a lot of guts to go to police and make her statement.”
A report into Dr Forge’s death will now be prepared for the Coroner.
