A man jailed for fo[u]r years claims he is still a good dad despite offering his son cocaine and trying to get him to have sex with a 26-year-old prostitute.
“Don’t be a p[u]ssy” the man told his son after he organised for two sex workers to visit a hotel in Bromley, Greater London. The young lad, who cannot be named, bravely told his dad “I’m f***ing 13, that’s ridiculous” when he was offered a line of cocaine.
At his sentencing hearing, the man told Croydon Crown Court he is a great father, despite appearing to have some weird and very skewed views on what is good parenting. "I’m a good father,” he insisted, after he pleaded guilty to arranging for a child to engage in sexual activity as well as offering to supply cocaine.
He told the court: "I might not look like it in your eyes. It was only because he was feeling down because he’d broken up with his girlfriend and he said he’d done all that stuff before.
He added: “So the brass sucked his p****. Job done. Whatever.”
It is likely that the Crown Prosecution Service felt that the fact that they’d been lied to would make the prospect of a conviction tricky and they decided not to press charges
Oh yeah for sure. Possibly also a matter of the bad press they’d receive and the fact that they want the sex workers’ cooperation with prosecuting the father. I was more interested in the hypothetical of could they be charged.
