Michigan dad pleads guilty to having sex with 3-year-old daughter

A sex-crazed Michigan dad is facing life behind bars for raping his 3-year-old daughter. The 28-year-old pleaded guilty on Tuesday to two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. The father’s identity is being withheld to protect the little girl, whom he admitted to raping “too many times to remember,” according to court documents. He faces life in prison when he is sentenced by Jackson County Circuit Judge John McBain on Dec. 4. The man will spend at least 25 years in correctional facilities because of the girl’s age, according to mlive.com. McBain could also order the father to serve two consecutive terms of 25 years or more for each count. The guilty plea is the result of a deal with prosecutors, who agreed to drop 10 counts against the man. As part of the deal, the man promised to testify against his wife.

The 36-year-old mother was also charged with two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after she was arrested in August. She told a detective that she had been sexually abused by her husband. But she stayed silent for months as the dad shifted his attentions toward his little girl. The mom admitted to helping her husband rape the child more than once, even holding the girl’s hands, so “it wouldn’t hurt that much.” The man took showers with the girl, touched her inappropriately, and forced her to watch pornography. The dad also kept sexually explicit photographs of the toddler just to satiate his sexual hunger. The abuse occurred while the couple lived in the Avalon Hotel in Jackson, from August 2012 to May 2013.
