Boy raped and sold for sex – by his mum

A GERMAN mother and her partner have been jailed over the repeated rape of the woman’s young son and for selling him for sex on the internet.

Freiburg state court in southwestern Germany sentenced the woman, identified only as Berrin T, to twelve-and-a-half years in prison for rape, sexual abuse and forced prostitution.

Her partner, Christian L, was sentenced to 12 years in prison.

The 48-year-old woman and 39-year-old man were accused of repeatedly abusing and raping the boy, now 10, and selling him to other men on the darknet for more than two years. The abuse was filmed. The couple were ordered to pay a total of £38,000 in compensation to the boy and another victim, a young girl.

The abused boy now lives with a foster family.
