Father 'forced son into sex with hooker'

Kieran Campbell | 23rd December 2009

A ROCKHAMPTON dad is accused of forcing his son to have sex with a prostitute because he feared the 14-year-old was gay.

During a family barbecue around Christmas time in 2007, the dad allegedly phoned a prostitute and arranged to meet her at a motel on Yaamba Road, North Rockhampton.

The father drove his son to the motel and paid the prostitute in $50 notes.

The prostitute took the boy into a motel room while the father waited on a balcony.

The dad walked in and out of the room to check on his son and told him he wanted to see a used condom as proof that they'd had sex. After the boy and the prostitute had finished the dad took his son home.

A magistrate yesterday found there was enough evidence against the father for him to stand trial for the rape of his son.

Giving evidence during the committal hearing in Rockhampton Magistrates Court, the boy's mother testified she questioned the youngster about where his father had taken him.

"First (he) didn't want to say anything to me. Then he told me his father took him to a motel room and there was a prostitute there," the mother said.

"He wouldn't talk, he just started crying."

Police first became aware of the alleged rape when the father phoned the Child Protection Investigation Unit on May 5, 2008.

Detective Sergeant Christine Knapp answered the phone call, during which the father allegedly accused police of not acting on suspicions that his 14-year-old son was "abusing" his younger brother.

The dad allegedly told police he had "tried to sort it out himself by taking (his son) to a prostitute".

Sergeant Knapp said she warned the father over the phone before driving to the family's home and speaking with the mother and child.

The prostitute alleged to have had sex with the teenager has never been located.

Sergeant Knapp said she tracked the father's mobile phone calls to trace the prostitute's number, but without knowing a date of the alleged offence she could not track the woman down.

The prostitute was described to police as being about 28-years-old, tall and skinny with tanned skin and dark, long hair.

Sergeant Knapp said the teenage boy appeared to be quite embarrassed when he was asked by police about the rape.

A date will be set in the new year for the matters to be heard in a higher court.

Hey, Tim, how come this is a "stupid idea someone thought it could work" and not "ABSOLTULY APEALING!11" like your usual reaction to situations like this? How can you brush off rape of a minor by a homophobic son of a bitch so easily? Or are you saying that the father's only fault was that he chose a method that doesn't work but he was right to try and force his son to be straight?

You make me sick, you retarded cancer-ridden scumbag.

Maybe if Marty's parents hadn't forced him to eat so much tuna as a child, he'd be less shrill.

[jimmy olsen]

What the hell? Totally didn't expect that reaction this time.

Of course it's bad Marty, but the stupidity of the man stuck out to me more. Especially since he's the one who mentioned what he did to the authorities of his own free will, not expecting to get into trouble.

People are morans. Film when the big hand points at the 12 and the little hand points at the 11.

Hey, not wanting your children to turn out gay is a legitimate concern.

Of course it's bad Marty, but the stupidity of the man stuck out to me more. Especially since he's the one who mentioned what he did to the authorities of his own free will, not expecting to get into trouble.

If the guy instead had his son anally raped by a male prostitute to the point the kid was crying, would "stupidity of the man stuck out to you more" too?

[jimmy olsen]

If he brought it up casually in a conversation with authorities? Hell yeah.

That would be gay.  What purpose would that serve?

I applaud Tim.  This thread delivers.

Never a good thing Shel.

Really? I thought it was one of his most over the top responses yet. I seriously didn't expect anything like it, just a rant against the guy in question.

[Martinus]

You said in your post about "stupid ideas" and him thinking "it would work". Surely you did not mean him admitting having done so to the cops because I can't see what would it "working" would have to do with anything. Now you are backtracking.

The whole story is tale of stupidity from start to finish, I'm not backtracking on anything.

You never gave the father in your hypothetical a reason for the crime. To turn him gay? If so I definitely would have centered my comment on his stupidity.
