Woman pleads guilty to sex with son, 9

[Today]

Source!

A Sydney couple say they had sex with their nine-year-old son because they are a "touchy feely family" and it helped with his sexual education.

A 57-year-old man and his 48-year-old wife were charged in November 2009 with multiple offences relating to the repeated sexual assault of their son, who is now aged 10.

Authorities were alerted to the family after the nine-year-old propositioned a girl at his school for sex.

Police arrested the couple at their home in Sydney's south on November 16, 2009, and they have not seen their son since being taken into custody.

In Sydney's Central Local Court on Thursday, the father pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual intercourse with his son, two counts of committing an indecent act, using the nine-year-old for child pornographic purposes, indecently assaulting his son, possessing child pornography and using the internet to offend.

The mother pleaded guilty to sexual intercourse with her son and two counts of committing an act of indecency.

On one occasion, while the boy lay in bed watching a DVD of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the woman performed a sex act on him while the man filmed it. The footage was later posted online.

"I understand that you think we are wrong but we think the human body is art and to be admired ..." the man told police during his early interviews.

The family are known nudists and the boy told police his father often "walked around in the nud when it's hot".

"The sexual assault side of it - I'm not quite sure what my son's getting at there, but we are, the three of us, very, very open-minded as we are nudists and our body, there is nothing hidden," the man told police.

"We are (a) very touchy feely family which we always have been ..."

The man also admitted performing sex acts on his son.

"Well, because he likes it, he wants it done," he said when asked by police why the acts had occurred.

"That's just us being a family, being very close ... as I say we are very open to that type of thing - but that's us.

"I mean the law says you can't but I mean - it's our way of educating our son - they are not getting any sexual education at school - he knows about sex already because we've sort of showed him, we've taught him, he knows what it's all about."

Both parents have been refused bail and an order is in place preventing them from having any contact with their son until he reaches adulthood.

The pair are due to face Sydney's Downing Centre District Court on June 4.

The woman will be involved in discussions about an apprehended violence order involving her son, enacted by prosecutors on his behalf, on June 11 at Central Local Court.

For legal reasons, none of the parties involved can be named.

Police had seized computer equipment from the family home as part of their investigations.

Among those items was a video recording of the co-accused engaged in sex acts in front of their son.

Since investigations began, another man has been criminally charged with offences relating to him viewing footage of the boy online.

I hope for the best for the son! And I hope he gets therapy. Usually kids whom are treated like that treats others the same way...

10ewwwssss.

I agree much therapy. hope his life gets better...

 

[Mr.Freeman]

Oh yeah, they're definitely being close, mentally scarring their son and posting their acts on the web.

 

[Mota]

Well that's a bit off putting.
Their defence that they were just educating the boy seems kinda flimsy when they record it and place it on the internet.

 

[victra♥]

okay ew.

Today, you always share the most disturbing news. @___@;

 

[Pikaville]

Jesus Christ!

The excuse that they wanted to sexually educate him is such crap.Especially on the fathers part...

Some people...

 

[GoldShadow]

pikaville, your avatar perfectly describes my (and I think everyone else's) reaction to this.

 

[Pikaville]

Its actually pretty much the exact face I was making while reading this article.

Minus the sharingan eyes.....

 

[Virgilijus]

Wow. Some people...

 

[Evil Eye]

I thought I'd seen the worst excuses from a pedophile already.

I hadn't. Now I've seen the worst. The absolute worst. These people better not get out of prison for a long time, because they're a deranged pair and an absolute danger.

 

[Grey Belnades]

okay ew.

Today, you always share the most disturbing news. @___@;

Agreed, Today always shares the most disturbing news

Now, everytime I read news stories like this, I now associate them with Today.

I hope they get the exact thing done to them in prison, especially the father.

Sorry droogie but its as Victra said, you make this place interesting but the stories you post...are just sad, disturbing and can bring down someone's day because of the reminder of the horrors in our society.

I'm sorry if my post offended you in anyway <.<

 

[Today]

XD! No worries! You didn't!! I just like to read a lot of news and post what's more interesting. But agreed, some stories are just way too horrific and it's just hard to believe people like this exist...

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

Trying to teach their son, eh?

Seeing as the boy asked a girl for sex, they must not have taught him well enough.

I always say that failure comes with a consequence. That was theirs.

 

[WB40]

That is so ****ing gross. The three of them should be locked up for life.

 

[UberMario]

The father really has no excuse AT ALL for what he did to that little boy.

 

[Ballistics]

I don't see anything wrong with this, some people are different, since when should a goverment legislate private morality

definitely shouldn't be posting stuff on the internet though

 

[Cease Tick]

That is so ****ing gross. The three of them should be locked up for life.

Wait... what?

 

[Fuelbi]

That is so ****ing gross. The three of them should be locked up for life.

Why the three of them?

This is obviously the parent's fault and they're the ones being accused of things. Why should the kid be locked up?

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

This world is only getting worse and worse as the borderline between right and wrong get hazy. This kind of **** is whats ruining the world.

 

[pitskeyblade]

That poor kid is probably going to grow up to be some serial sex offender or killer. That's so sad for such a young child to have his innocence taken from him like that.

Don't be dumb and make assumptions like that, he even ASKED the girl at school for sex. That shows some class, instead of straight out ****** her after what's done to him.

It's still a step in the wrong direction. Ya there could have been worse things that could have happened, but that doesn't mean that what he did was wrong.

 

[Infinite Emerald]

That dad, lock him up and melt the key and make a doorknob out of it. I read something kinda like this, but it was somewhere in Asia. I wonder what the little girl was thinking when he approached her.

The government should intervene when people start getting hurt.

Having sex with children would qualify.

[Metal~Mario]

How do people end up like this?

Seriously?

HOW could this EVER be justified?

It's not even a matter of personal and ethnical morals.

The youth is underage, which alone is breaching a fundamental part of legality.

Due to the fact the youth is underage and not ready for sexual reproduction, this constitutes as harming him.

Therefore, it's illegal and the parents should be persecuted.

 

[Deleted member]

Like others, I agree that this is disgusting and the parents deserve to go to prison.

However, I'm especially wondering this. WHY would the father have sex with his underage son? Doesn't he have his wife?

The government should intervene when people start getting hurt.

The only people I see hurt here, is a family destroyed by the people that are supposed to protect them.

It's not even a matter of personal and ethnical morals.

But it is a matter of morality.

 

[.Marik]

But it is a matter of morality.

No, it isn't.

At least attempt to refute my points instead of repeating yourself?

My bad. I think everyone in here is judging the parents morals. I don't agree with the age the government has deemed as sexually appropriate, i think it should be lower. I don't think that sex is just for reproduction. And I don't believe in persecution.

The government alone didn't implement the legal age.

His body is physically incapable of sexually reproducing, which is where they get the idea.

You think it's normal for biological parents to have sex with their children?

His parents are sick, twisted sociopaths that took advantage of their vulnerable son.

I believe they should be persecuted, what they did was not morally right, or at least, was not right in the eyes of society.

 

[Fuelbi]

Am I the only one who feels nothing to this? I mean unlike the comments above where they want the guy to burn or die or get killed or something, I really... feel nothing towards this...

depression[/URL],[5] post-traumatic stress disorder,[6] anxiety,[7] propensity to further victimization in adulthood,[8] and physical injury to the child, among other problems.[9] Sexual abuse by a family member is a form of incest, and can result in more serious and long-term psychological trauma, especially in the case of parental incest.[10]

Having sex with children severely hurts the child. Replace "had sex" with "beat" - it is the same level of harm, if not worse.

I'm all for sexual freedom and whatnot, but abuse like this needs to be persecuted.

I don't really care about strangers either.

Interesting though.

People sometimes just do stuff that is unexplainable . . . .
