NASSAU- A man who sexually abused his teenage daughter has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for incest.
The 48-year-old businessman exploited his daughter’s desire to have a relationship with him by molesting her in 2015 and 2016 when she was 15 and 16 years old.
His name has been withheld to protect the victim’s identity.
The man had initially disowned his daughter. However, he developed a relationship with her in 2013 when he was forced to pay child support after a DNA test confirmed paternity.
Tragically, just two years after coming in her life, the man took his then-15-year-old daughter’s virginity in 2015 by the pool at the gated community where he lived with his fiancée and son.
He violated her again on his birthday in 2016 after making her watch a porn video with him. Then, he told her that she was better in bed than her mother.
The now-22-year-old woman said the incidents made her feel dirty and ugly.
The sexual abuse was revealed after the girl confided in her teacher after she experienced an emotional breakdown at school.
She later confronted her father about the abuse during a telephone call that was secretly recorded.
In the recording, the man begged his daughter to keep the abuse secret. He claimed that his uncle buggered him as a child.
The man denied the allegations during his testimony and claimed that the recording was doctored. He said that his daughter was angry with him because he didn’t buy her a car.
