An Australian father who is accused of forcing his teenage son to have sex
with a prostitute -- out of fear that he was gay -- may face rape
charges.
As the rest of the family celebrated Christmas 2007, the father allegedly took his son to a motel in North Rockhampton, where he paid the prostitute to have sex with his son, according to The Morning Bulletin, a newspaper in Rockhampton. He left the room, demanding that the boy show him a used condom as proof he finished with the prostitute.
A magistrate decided on Tuesday that there was enough evidence to bring the father to trial.
"First [he] didn't want to say anything to me," the boy's mother testified. "Then he told me his father took him to a motel room and there was a prostitute there. He wouldn't talk, he just started crying."
Detective sergeant Christine Knapp said police first became aware of the situation when the father tried to report his son to authorities six months later, in May 2008, saying the boy was abusing his younger brother. The father said he "tried to sort it out himself by taking his son to a prostitute" to no avail.
The alleged prostitute has yet to be found.
