The TSJC responds to one of the two requests to reduce the ten sentences imposed on the appellant for the crimes committed: corruption of minors, exhibitionism and sexual abuse of minors.
In any case, it points out that this reduction in one of the crimes committed, from 10 to 9 years, “lacks practical relevance“, since the sum of sentences drops from 42 to 41 years in prison, “much higher than the maximum limit of 20 years of compliance.”
The Criminal Chamber of the Canarian high court has issued two other orders in which it ratifies the sentences originally imposed by the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Court in view of the defenses claiming a reduction in the same due to the application of the Guarantee Law Comprehensive Sexual Freedom.
They refer to two sentences of five and a half years and seven years for sexual abuse of a child under 16 years of age.
In the second case, in which the victims were the defendant’s daughter, stepson and niece, the TSJC revokes an order of the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Court in which it partially upheld the appeal filed by the defense, lowering in one of the crimes of sexual abuse the penalty of two to one year in jail.
