A man jailed for fo[u]r years claims he is still a good dad despite offering his son cocaine and trying to get him to have sex with a 26-year-old prostitute.

“Don’t be a p[u]ssy” the man told his son after he organised for two sex workers to visit a hotel in Bromley, Greater London. The young lad, who cannot be named, bravely told his dad “I’m f***ing 13, that’s ridiculous” when he was offered a line of cocaine.

At his sentencing hearing, the man told Croydon Crown Court he is a great father, despite appearing to have some weird and very skewed views on what is good parenting. "I’m a good father,” he insisted, after he pleaded guilty to arranging for a child to engage in sexual activity as well as offering to supply cocaine.

He told the court: "I might not look like it in your eyes. It was only because he was feeling down because he’d broken up with his girlfriend and he said he’d done all that stuff before.

He added: “So the brass sucked his p****. Job done. Whatever.”

    You know, I never thought that the kind of storylines in Guy Ritchie movies were realistic but I guess it’s just a British thing.

    "The dad added that the sex workers were already in a taxi so it was too late to cancel, Ms Benson said. When the two women arrived the dad told them his son was 18 years old.

    The boy was then taken to a separate room where he reluctantly allowed a 26-year-old sex worker to perform a sex act on him, the court heard. In a police statement the boy said he didn’t want to do it and he was left feeling disgusted."

    “I’m fucking 13, that’s ridiculous” is a fucking hilarious thing to say to your father when he offers you a line of cocaine.

    Jesus christ, what a ludicrous scenario. I hope the kid turns out alright inspite of his dad being kinda batshit

    What is this country coming to that you can pressure your adolescent son into doing cocaine and having sex with a prostitute and be called a bad farther? It’s not trauma, it’s character building!

    Best dad ever (but only from the point of view of the 13 year old boy)

      … his father paid a woman to sexually assault him and pressured his son to concede. He’s 13 years old. That’s sexual assault no matter the circumstances. His father is fucking sick and should be in prison.

        He is:

        The judge sentenced him to four years in prison for arranging a child sex offence.

        The dad will be subject to sex offence notification requirements for life and was given a 10-year SHPO.

        And won’t be allowed unsupervised contact with children for ten years.
