Dad charged with sexual abuse of son, child porn (Howell, Michigan)

UNNAMED DAD already had a history of molesting children. No big surprise in a sense that he's now being charged with sexually abusing his own son (and daughter) over a period of 5 years or more, and manufacturing child pornography. Was there a mother in this home? No mention of one.

INVISIBLE MOTHER ALERT.

Court Docket: Father faces more molestation chargesMar 27, 2011

A Howell-area father already charged with multiple felonies for allegedly molesting his children is facing new charges involving his son and an acquaintance.

The 51-year-old father was arraigned Thursday on three counts of criminal sexual conduct for allegedly molesting a family friend twice in 1997 when he was a teenager and once in 2010 when he was an adult.

One of the counts alleges penetration occurred.

In a separate case, the father was charged with three counts of child abusive commercial activity for allegedly taking sexually explicit photographs and videos of his son. Police said there is no evidence the man shared those images with anyone else.

The father returns to District Court on Thursday for an exam conference in the two new cases, and to Circuit Court on Friday for a pretrial hearing on the initial charges, which include five counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, four counts of second-degree CSC and two counts of third-degree CSC/incest.

Police allege the father molested his son and daughter, then both under age 13, for a period of about five years or six years.

The Daily Press & Argus is not naming the father because it could identify the children.
