(Brisbane, Australia) This episode illustrates one reason why minors are protected by laws. Young people cannot adequately protect themselves from exploitation.
A Brisbane pimp who paid his child prostitute in chicken nuggets will serve just nine months behind bars.Authorities were alerted when the 16-year-old told a guidance counselor at school.
Ronald Vikash Gander, 27, was described by a District Court judge yesterday as a ''sleaze merchant'' who treated the 16-year-old girl as a ''piece of meat'' after it was revealed he had forced her to have sex with older men and take part in a lesbian sex romp in order to pay rent on his Spring Hill apartment.
The $4500 she made as a first-time prostitute went on living expenses, car hire and buckets of chicken nuggets for the girl, prosecutors said. [...]
The court was told Gander was living with his 16-year-old girlfriend in Brisbane in June last year when his teen lover's school friend moved in after running away from home.
In order to pay the $1045 per week rent on their apartment at Republic Apartments, Spring Hill, Gander and his girlfriend told the girl she would have to work as a prostitute.
Using his credit card, Gander placed two ads in a Brisbane newspaper offering the girl's services and drove her to five sex appointments in the space of a week.
The girl, who cannot be named, had sex with men aged between 40 and 60 and also took part in a lesbian romp with a 25-year-old woman who responded to the advertisements.
