Gran Canaria court sentences man to 38 years for sexual abuse of minors
The Provincial Court of Las Palmas has sentenced a 57-year-old man, identified as G. D. G. R., to 38 years in prison for continuous sexual abuse against four minors. The victims included three sisters, who were the ex-wife's daughters, and a niece.
The court's ruling includes three counts of sexual abuse involving penetration against victims under the age of 16, each carrying a 10-year sentence. Additionally, the defendant received a five-year sentence for continuous sexual abuse without penetration against his niece.
Beyond imprisonment, the sentence imposes periods of supervised release ranging from four to five years and prohibits the defendant from approaching or communicating with the victims within 500 meters for a period of 6 to 12 years. The court also ordered civil liability payments for moral damages, totaling 80,000 euros distributed among the four victims.
The judicial resolution established that the abuses occurred between 2003 and 2020 in various residences in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The court found that the defendant exploited the victims' vulnerability and the trust inherent in their family relationship, reportedly using small sums of money to coerce them into silence.
