Oliver J. Lewis given 3 1/2 years imprisonment for molesting 13-yr-old boy
The sentence was handed down by the controversial Magistrate Ayanna O. Baptiste DaBreo in the lower court on October 3, 2016. She also ordered him to compensate the family of the victim with $10,000 or spend an additional six months in prison.
Church encounter
It is reported that Mr Lewis had met the young boy in the Jehovah’s Witnesses Church on Tortola where they both attended.
The court had heard on December 3, 2015 that the Virtual Complainant, aged 13 back in 2013, said he was engaged in Bible sessions with the male defendant.
The Magistrate had maintained that whether or not the boy agreed to the alleged sexual activity, he could not give consent as he is a minor. The Magistrate had also said that the relationship between the VC and the defendant was described as a brotherly church relationship. It was revealed that on various occasions the defendant would allegedly pick the Virtual Complainant up from school and take him to his house where they would engage in homosexuality and paedophilia.
Texts & emails reveal much
There were many emails and text messages exchanged allegedly between the Virtual Complainant and the defendant. In some of them the defendant allegedly promised to buy the Virtual Complainant a cell phone. The Virtual Complainant allegedly preferred one kind over another and the defendant pleaded with him saying that he could not afford what the Virtual Complainant wanted.
In some of the texts, the defendant threatened to kill himself because of what allegedly took place between the two.
