Dad pleads guilty to sexually abusing son, daughter, other kids; also child porn, bestiality (Edmonton, Canada)

Of course it's an UNNAMED DAD. Notice that the sexual abuse of the son and and daughter took place after the divorce from their mother, meaning it took place during Daddy's custody/visitation (i.e. "parenting") time. Unfortunately, even if these children had chosen to tell the mother, it's unlikely the authorities would have believed her. No doubt she would have been labeled a vindictive liar out to alienate her children from their wonderful father. In fact, if you check out the daughter's testimony, it seems this Daddy was very slick and manipulative. The kind who ALWAYS fools the evaluators into thinking he's a wide-eyed innocent who's being unfairly accused.

Father pleads guilty to incest, sex abuse of minors
Long list of charges includes child pornography, bestiality

By Ryan Cormier, Edmonton Journal January 25, 2012 3:10 AM

An Edmonton-area man has pleaded guilty to more than a decade of sexual abuse of minors, including his son and daughter.

The 41-year-old, who cannot be named to protect the identity of his victims, entered guilty pleas to 27 of the 40 charges against him, including charges of sexual touching, child pornography, unlawful confinement, incest and bestiality.

He pleaded not guilty to 13 others, including 10 charges of sexual assault. He is scheduled to face trial on those charges on March 12. Only after that trial will he be sentenced.

The man's victims included his son, his daughter, the daughter of a girlfriend and two daughters of a fiancée. Four of five victims were minors at the time of the abuse.

The crimes stretch from 1999 until 2010, according to an agreed statement of facts heard by the court.

The man's daughter told police of sexual abuse that started when she was six years old, though she didn't recognize it as abuse until she was 11. Her father never became violent with her, the now 18-year-old told investigators.

"He talked nicely and softly to her and kept telling her that he loved her," court heard.

When the girl was 11, her father ordered her and her 10-year-old brother to have sex. Her father had sexual intercourse with her. There were numerous instances of abuse in the following years.

It took several hours to read the man crime's into the court record. He entered his pleas in a soft voice and had to be told to speak up.

The man's son, now 17, said his parents divorced when he was young. Growing up, his father often asked him to participate in sexual activity with himself and women. The teen declined.

The father told both his children that he was teaching them about sex "for later in life."

The siblings were afraid to tell anyone of their father's crimes and both attempted suicide as a direct result of the abuse.

From 2003 to 2008, the man was in a relationship with a woman who had a young daughter. When they were alone, the accused sexually touched the girl and forced her to touch him. She once woke up to him abusing her. More recently, the man abused two daughters of a woman he was engaged to in 2009 and 2010.

The mother once allegedly held her daughter down while the accused had sex with her. The mother will face a criminal trial later this year. The man also brought a friend to their home to have sexual activity with the girl. That man now faces charges.

On April 30, 2010, the man and his fiancée argued and she left the home with her youngest daughter.

Police were contacted within the week. They searched the man's home and seized note-books, photos, CDs, a computer and data storage devices. Officers with the Integrated Child Sexual Exploitation Unit found 10,455 images and 8,355 videos of child pornography.
