Man Convicted of Incest with Teen Daughter Appealing 27-Year Sentence

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – A 47-year-old man convicted of carrying on an incestuous relationship with his daughter for seven years is appealing his 27-year sentence.

The matter was adjourned to November 24 when the convict appeared before the Court of Appeal.

According to the evidence presented at trial, the man began molesting his 13-year-old daughter soon after her mother, his wife, died in 2013.

He introduced the child to porn and taught her to masturbate before he began sexually abusing her.

The victim testified that she was so brainwashed that she believed her sexual relationship with her father was normal.

The abuse didn’t stop until her younger sister made a complaint to the police.

The father is also awaiting trial for allegedly abusing the other daughter.
