Man Who ‘Played’ With 8YO Stepson & Made Him Watch Porn Sentenced to 1 Year’s Jail

Gone are the days when women were the sole entities to fear walking on the streets.

Men, or more frequently boys, have too, been targeted for reasons such as carnal desires.

And it seems that no relation is truly safe too, seeing how in the following instance…

A stepfather scenario has occurred as well.

Man Who ‘Played’ With 8YO Stepson & Made Him Watch Porn Sentenced to 1 Year’s Jail

According to The Straits Timesa 39-year-old Singaporean has been sentenced to one year’s imprisonment for molesting his eight-year-old stepson.

The indecent act was reportedly committed back in 2019.

According to the news report, the victim was resting in a bedroom in May 2019 when his stepfather woke him up.

Unlike family serials, the latter proceeded to show the former rather inappropriate content:

A pornographic video involving two men.

After showing the clip, the older man proceeded to fondle the boy’s private parts, before making the child touch himself.

The former then left the room.

It’s stated that the offence only came to light in May 2020, when the boy informed his mother about the incident.

The 33-year-old woman proceeded to file a police report two days later.

After investigations, it was revealed that the man was purportedly “high on drugs” at the time of the offence.

He was later sent to jail for unrelated drug offences.

Sentencing

In court, Deputy Public Prosecutor Colin Ng was clear that the case entailed a “blatant and egregious breach of trust”.

“The accused was the victim’s stepfather, and had unbridled access to the victim,” he said.

He added that such scenarios required stern action.

“Our courts would be grievously remiss if they did not send an unequivocal and uncompromising message to all would-be sex offenders that abusing a relationship or a position of authority in order to gratify sexual impulse will inevitably be met with the harshest penal consequences.”

The man was subsequently sentenced to a year’s jail.

For practicing an indecent act on a child, a first-time offender could face a jail term of up to five years and a fine of up to S$10,000.

A repeat offender could face up to seven years in prison and a fine of up to S$20,000.

Similar Instances

As mentioned above, cases of young boys being molested are getting more and more prevalent.

Back in May 2021, a 74-year-old man was sentenced to one-and-a-half years’ jail for molesting an underage boy. He had pleaded guilty to molesting the child and also making the boy perform a sexual act on him.

And in April 2021, 21-year-old Malaysian Clement Tan Jun Yan was sentenced to 18 months in jail on the same day for molesting two underage males.

The young man pleaded guilty to two counts of molestation involving two boys and another two similar charges were considered during his sentencing, reported CNA.
