A jury has convicted a 63-year-old man of sexual intercourse with a dependent and indecent assault for abusing his wife’s 16-year-old niece while she was living in his care.
Prosecutors said the girl moved into the household in 2018 and initially trusted the accused as a father figure. She told the court he began entering her bedroom at night and touching her while his son slept nearby. She also testified that in November 2018 he drove her to a remote farm, threatened her, and forced her to submit.
The accused denied the allegations, claiming the teenager initiated the encounters and offered sexual favors. He also told jurors that erectile dysfunction prevented intercourse, a claim supported by his wife’s testimony.
The jury acquitted him of rape but found him guilty of sexual intercourse with a dependent and indecent assault.

Im sick n tired of these stories in this little 108sq ml. Island. Too many nasty.men and too many male centered women who will sacrifice little girls to make a man happy. We need to castrate these men, they are sick. Make the registry public!!! Tooo many sick men among us!!!
He is asking us to believe that his wife’s16 year old niece in his home propositioned him, a 63 year old man, offering sex? With all the young men walking around in St John’s, she wanted an old tired man 😁What a lame excuse. And even if by some wild stretch of the imagination that she did proposition him, once he agreed, it is statutory rape. I hope he gets a long custodial sentence, and peadophilia is added to the charge.
It’s time these old men in Antigua get jailed for their sexual advances on school children. And in Western societies if you fiddle with children, your prison mates will deal with you accordingly.
