An Australian man awaiting trial over pedophilia accusations is said to have disturbingly taken kids to his house and fed them KFC.
Robert Ellis, 69, was arrested in January 2016 at his home in Tabanan amidst accusations that he sexually assaulted four children. The number of alleged victims has now grown to 15.
Ellis is believed to have abused the children between 2014 and 2015 and prosecutor Ketut Maha Agung said Ellis took the kids home and “fed them with KFC,” AAP reports. Creepy.
Police reportedly handed Ellis’ case over to prosecutors on Monday, where he said he hopes “people are reasonable and no one sees a minor offense as a major offense.”
Ellis will be sent to Bali’s infamous Kerobokan Prison for detainment before his trial, which is supposed to start within 20 days.
The senior could get a maximum of 15 years behind bars if charged as expected with threatening, forcing, persuading or deceiving children to perform a lewd act, according to AAP.
