The former teacher of the Bischop Bekkers Lyceum, who had a relationship with two underage girls has no regrets. “I know it should not have happened, but we were in love.” Reports Omroep Brabant.
A prison sentence of 18 months was demanded including 9 months probation. Furthermore, the man is not allowed to exercise his profession for five years and there is a restraining order with the 15-year-old girls.
The relationship became known when the father of a girl discovered the relationship. He immediately informed the police force. It then became clear very quickly that the man had already had a relationship with another 15-year-old girl.
Contact was made via WhatsApp, after which it became increasingly personal. This resulted in a meeting during school holidays. The first meeting took place in the school. That was because he had the keys and access code to the building. Other dates took place at his home and in the woods.
The man did not have sex with the girls, as showed yesterday. However, the the girls were kissed and lewd groped. The teacher was sacked when the school found out.
During the trial the man admitted to making an informed decision. According to him he was so in love that he could not stop; even if it would cost him his job.
