The Tasmanian Supreme Court heard that the father had set up a camera to capture ghosts he believed were haunting his house.

One day he forgot to turn it off and when he later reviewed the footage, he saw his son and the 28-year-old Tasmanian woman - who cannot be named for legal reasons - kissing and cuddling.

His girlfriend of 11 years initially denied any relationship, but his son confessed that they had sex on multiple occasions.

The woman later pleaded guilty to sex with the minor and today was sentenced to at least six months in jail.

The court heard the illicit affair began last year after a discussion about driving lessons. It was discovered in October, when the boy was moved to live with his grandparents.

Only the adult should be punished, but you had a good idea for that

[Yo-Yo]

So the guy had a 5 year old son and picked up a 17 year old girlfriend?

[WomBom]

[TexasCajun]

Something doesn’t add up?

[Tax-chick]

Yes. However, it doesn’t say how old the man is: he might be 28 himself ... or even younger, since the woman clearly likes younger.

[GeronL]

28... yes I am sure he had a kid at 12

[DainBramage]

No wonder she didn’t give a shit if his room was clean.

[Tax-chick]

Oh, whoops. You expected me to do subtraction on only one cup of coffee?
