A depraved Australian father surprised officers when he showed up at a regional police station and announced that he was a pedophile who “should not be on the streets.”
The Queensland man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, turned himself in at the station west of Brisbane in July 2021 and confessed to sexually abusing his two young daughters, reports the ABC.
He described himself during a recorded interview with police as “the worst kind of wild pig there is.”
The younger of the two girls did not make any accusations against her father, 51 years old; However, her eldest daughter, now 18, revealed a harrowing catalog of abuse between the ages of four and 15.
The man was sentenced for his sickening crimes at Toowoomba District Court on Thursday and must spend a maximum of 12 years behind bars.

The presiding judge, the twisted father, sexually abused his eldest daughter up to 1,000 times over an 11-year period, sometimes raping her every other day..
Judge Paul Smith said of the crimes: “It is truly disgusting behavior involving his own daughters, it is incredible that a father would do that.”
The man had allegedly confessed his actions to his local church and his wife, who allowed him to continue living in the family home.
Judge Smith noted that the wife’s inaction must have made the child victim feel isolated.
The 18-year-old victim shook as she gave an impact statement to the court, staring at the monster who “filled me with so much anger it made my blood boil.”
‘You have hurt me but you will never destroy me. “I have a bright future and nothing you can do will be able to stop me,” she said.
“While you are in prison, keep in mind everything you have lost and will never regain because of your own actions, the freedom you no longer possess.”
