A boy who sought his foster father’s permission to use the computer was violated by the man, who pretended he had to “check” the boy’s body first.
Then between nine and 10 years old, the boy did not know the acts were wrong until he attended sexual education classes in school.
The foster father, 63, was jailed for a year and a month on Thursday after he earlier pleaded guilty to committing an indecent act with a child.
Another three charges related to indecent acts on other occasions were taken into consideration for the accused’s sentencing.
Both the accused and the victim cannot be named due to a gag order to protect the latter’s identity. The victim is now 19 years old.
From between 2010 and 2011, the boy was placed in foster care at the age of four. Court documents did not state why.
