A father was jailed for four years for hiring a sex worker for his 13-year-old son and offering him cocaine.
THE DEFENSE ARGUMENT
But despite his actions, he claimed in court that he was ‘a good father’ and showed no remorse, saying he arranged the prostitutes as a way of cheering up his son following a romantic break-up.
The man, who cannot be named, arranged for two sex workers to attend a hotel in Bromley, southeast London.
He then told his son ‘don’t be a p****’ when the boy said he didn’t want to have sex with a 26-year-old.
He also offered his son a line of cocaine – but the boy replied: ‘I’m f***ing 13, that’s ridiculous’.
But at his sentencing hearing at Croydon Crown Court the man said: ‘I’m a good father’.
COURT HEARD
He told the court: ‘I might not look like it in your eyes. It was only because he was feeling down because he’d broken up with his girlfriend and he said he’d done all that stuff before.
‘So the brass sucked his p****. Job done. Whatever.’
The dad pleaded guilty to arranging for a child to engage in sexual activity as well as offering to supply cocaine.

Prosecutor Judith Benson said the boy’s mum had reluctantly agreed for him to spend a night with his dad.
But when the boy arrived his dad offered him a line of cocaine and said: ‘I’ve bought a brass’.
When his son told him he didn’t want that, the dad blamed it on the boy’s mum being ‘overprotective’ and told him ‘don’t be a p*ssy’.
The dad added that the sex workers were already in a taxi so it was too late to cancel, Ms Benson said.
When the two women arrived the dad told them his son was 18 years old.
The boy was then taken to a separate room where he reluctantly allowed a 26-year-old sex worker to perform a s£x act on him, the court heard.
In a police statement the boy said he didn’t want to do it and he was left feeling disgusted.
The dad then paid the women £150 each and they left.
