Man sentenced for repeatedly raping wife and filming the act on phone
The victim who got curious of an app called ‘Video Locker’ on her husband’s phone opened it up to take a look.
She was shocked to find footages of her husband carrying out sickening sex acts on her while she was asleep, including close-ups of him raping her.
She
contacted her husband after discovering the clips, which ranged from 30 seconds
to two minutes, telling him: “I’ve just watched videos of you raping me on your
phone.”
In
a statement, the traumatized victim said her life had been left in tatters as
she struggled to come to terms with what her husband had done.
She
said, “In March 2017, I discovered my husband had been sexually abusing me.
“Since
that day, my life and that of our children has been completely turned upside
down in ways I still cannot come to terms with.”
“I
never thought he would be capable of doing what he did.’’
“He
has completely fooled me. I never want to see him again.”

Mark
Giuliani, prosecuting, said, “On March 14 this year, the defendant left for
work. As he forgot to take his mobile phone with him, the complainant took the
opportunity to look at the phone and noticed something called Video Locker.
‘’It
showed video recordings of the defendant participating in sexual activity with
his wife while she was asleep.’’
“The
defendant returned home immediately.”
“An
argument followed and he said “I’m sorry, I f**ked up. I need help”.
“He
left the family home never to return again.”
The
court was told that, by the time the victim went to the police a short while
later, the man had already handed himself in, telling officers “I have had sex
with my wife.
“She
didn’t consent. She found out and saw videos on my phone”.
“The
recordings have subsequently been destroyed,” he added
The
victim, who is now on medication, said she now lived in a state of constant
paranoia, which had forced her to have extra locks put on her home and for her
working life to suffer.
The
husband apologized and pleaded guilty to three counts of rape, one of assault
by penetration, one of attempted rape and one of sexual assault.
The
court ordered him to sign the sex offender’s registry for life.
