Recent legal proceedings in Brazil and Greece have resulted in significant prison sentences for men convicted of the long-term sexual abuse of minors under their care.

In Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, a man received four separate 20-year sentences, totaling 80 years, for the abuse of his two stepdaughters. The crimes occurred over several years, beginning when the victims were seven and nine years old. The court rejected the defendant’s claims of psychiatric issues and false accusations, finding the victims' testimonies consistent with police and social assistance records.

In Larissa, Greece, a 44-year-old man was sentenced to life imprisonment plus an additional 15 years for the repeated rape of his 9-year-old stepdaughter between 2023 and 2025. The court reached a unanimous guilty verdict based on the child’s testimony and psychologist reports, despite the defendant’s claims that the allegations were fabricated for financial gain.
