A 63-year-old Oak Harbor man admitted to raping two young children, but blamed his actions on the 4-year-old victim, according to a police report.
Prosecutors charged Richard Tice Sr. in Island County Superior Court May 2 with four counts of first-degree rape of a child. He's accused of repeatedly raping a 4-year-old girl and an 8-year-old girl.
Detective Sgt. Teri Gardner with the Oak Harbor Police Department started investigating the case last month after the parents of one of the alleged victims brought her to the hospital after she disclosed the abuse.
The 4-year-old child was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for a forensic examination. Gardner then received a report that Tice Sr. had also assaulted an 8-year-old child.
During separate interviews with the detective, the girls described the sexual assaults in graphic detail, according to Gardner's report. The older girl said Tice Sr. told her not to tell anyone and she was scared, court documents state.
Gardner wrote that she interviewed Tice Sr. after reading him his Miranda rights. He initially denied everything, but eventually admitted to raping the little girls, Gardner wrote.
"Tice then said, 'I play around. I'll be truthful,' but blamed (the 4-year-old girl) on initiating sexual contact," Gardner wrote.
In addition, Gardner wrote that Tice Sr. denied assaulting any other children, but another child in California came forward with allegations against him, the report states.
If convicted of the charges against him, Tice could face an indeterminate sentence of up to life in prison, with a minimum of 20 to 26.5 years in prison.
Is there a pit in Hell deep enough?
Execute him, now, and do it slowly.
I'm beyond horrified, blaming a little girl for his perversions.
Truly, some people are a waste of oxygen.
Rapists always say, “she wanted it, she liked it.”
This is the first time I’ve ever a man claim a 4-year old girl initiated sex.
Sorry, I left out the word “read”.
omg.
Yeah blame a 4 year old girl.
If it wouldn´t be such a tragedy and a horrible crime his lack of brain would be funny.
I suppose next he’ll claim the little girl tweeted him back with suggestive language, so it was consentual.
Just shoot him in the head twice and be done with it.
Several years ago I read an article in a newspaper about a little FIVE year old girl who was gang raped by several grown men (I think it was Chicago)
The judge agreed with the defense that a FIVE YEAR OLD could lead men on and tease so they got off or got a lighter sentence
Just shoot him in the head twice and be done with it.
Give me 48 hours in my basement with the tools....it's time to get medeival on someone's ass.
No need to make it quick and painless.
Woodchipper, feet first, low speed.
Then there is this story... When you think things can’t get worse.... http://www.pnwlocalnews.com/whidbey/wnt/news/123128508.html
Hang him, a rope you can use over and over.
MOD = mandatory organ donor
Don’t forget MoHamhead raping Ayisha. You know how sexy those little girls can be. /s
And blame the gun....
After summarily executing this guy, I would look very closely at the other males in this child’s life. Children who have been abused repeatedly will sometimes think that enticing adults is the only way to get love of any kind. It is a perverted world we live in today, and getting worse. Look at programs made for the young like Glee.
He'll be back on the street in around 7 years.
What a sick, sick perv this guy is.
I can think of a lot of good ways for him to die...
