Briton Gets 14 Year Jail Term for Having Sex with 2 Underage Boys

The Ratchadapisek Criminal Court Monday sentenced a 47-year-old Briton to a 14-year jail term for luring two underage boys and molesting them.

According to the lawsuit, defendant Robert John Alexander Hoseman allegedly lured the two 12 year olds in Chon Buri's Bang Lamung district in late 2004 and performed oral sex on them. Hoseman, however, denied any wrongdoing, claiming that the boys had consented to the sexual act.

After considering evidence from both sides, the court found Hoseman guilty and sentenced him to 14 years in jail - of which 12 are for molesting children under the age of 15 and two for luring minors away from their parents.

He got what he deserved, maybe not enough.

If the allegation are true, then he deserves a long sentence.

To me, once a court convicts someone, that's the end of whatever it is being on "allegation" status.

This, by the way, was not the first time this man was in legal trouble for pedophile activity. It was the third time.

Luckily they didn't mention the lovely beach-resort as the crime-scene, but it's district instead.

On the first point, I agree providing the country concerned has a reputation for fair & honest policing, combined with a well respected judicial system.

From the second point, I get the picture.
