What a piece of shit.
Actually, no. Saying this would be an insult to the piece of shit. In my opinion, rape is inexcusable and the perpetrator should get castrated just to prevent things like this from happening ever again.
And our sunny island of Singapore isn’t free from such beasts too.
59-year-old Roger Yue Jr faced a total of 48 charges of various sexual offences. All these offences were committed between 2008 and 2010 against the victim, a girl who was 13 years old back then.
13 years old?! What kind of sick psycho is this guy!? There must be a special place in hell reserved just for this person.
Out of the 48 offences, Yue claimed trial to 7 of them, with the remaining 41 stood down.
Yue was the coach of the victim’s primary school’s skipping rope team. The victim was later invited to join Yue’s competitive skipping rope team and got her to help out with coaching skipping rope teams from different schools.
Said sexual offences took place at various locations, including Yue’s home, now-defunct studio and at a secondary school. It wasn’t until after the victim distanced herself from Yue that the sexual abuse stopped. A police record was only made in 2014, after the victim confided in her Polytechnic lecturer and counsellor.
During the seven-day hearing which started on 21 Nov 2017, the court was informed that the victim had only lodged a police report on 28 April 2014, close to 5 years after the offences were committed.
According to a report by Todayonline, Justice Aedit Abdullah said: “The fact that the victim did not report the incidents to anyone in authority till about five years later, and only to her boyfriend and cousin along the way, gave some pause.”
However, Justice Aedit Abdullah also added that lodging a report late “does not necessarily suffer from reduced credibility, though such an omission robs the victim of the strength of support that is to be obtained from early reporting”.
Although the victim’s continuation of the training sessions despite the sexual abuse might seem weird, the High Court judge said that a juvenile cannot be expected to react like how an adult would.
“The thinking process, assumptions and viewpoint of a juvenile victim may lead to a course of action that may appear unreasonable or improbable,” said Justice Aedit.
“The fact that the victim did not complain and continued with contact with (Yue) did not rob her of credibility; it is entirely believable that the victim would have been focussed on her continued participation in the skip rope team, and would not have known any better about what to do,” Justice Aedit added.
For his crimes, Yue is currently facing up to 20 years’ jail for each charge. He cannot be caned(which is a pity) as he is above 50 years old.
