Dad to go on trial for sexual abuse of daughters (Berlin, Germany)

There is an epidemic of this stuff that has yet to be uncovered. Or is deliberately concealed by the authorities. Of course it's an UNNAMED DAD. Are we surprised that this idiot claims the "sex" (rape) was "consensual"?

German father to go on trial for incest with two daughters

Berlin - A German father is to go on trial next week on 400 charges of sexually abusing his own daughters, justice officials disclosed Wednesday, only one day after three decades of incest in another family became public.

In the new case, a daughter who is now 24 gave birth to two children by her father. The abuse began after she was 18. Her younger sister had been abused from the age of 16, prosecutors alleged.

The 46-year-old man from Guenzberg, southern Germany, faces, for each daughter, 200 charges of obtaining sex from a person whom he was under a duty to protect. The trial opens Tuesday. His arrest had not been made public previously.

New details emerged in a case made public on Tuesday of a 69-year-old man arrested six months ago for abusing his daughter over a 34-year period and fathering three sons with congenital defects by her.

Defence lawyer Karl Herzog said an uncle of the woman, who is now 46, had fathered an additional child by her.

The lawyer said his client admits incest, but denies the 500 rape charges, maintaining it was consensual. He said he would ask for a psychological assessment of the woman's credibility as a witness, adding: 'The whole family are of below average intelligence.'

No trial date has been set. The incest in the second case, in a family from the southern village of Willmersbach, came to light after the woman blamed a doctor for one of her son's birth defects and made threats.

Neighbours said the family had kept to themselves through the years, but had not aroused any suspicion.
