Dungeon dad to tell court that he ”loved daughter in his own way”
March 9th, 2009 - 4:47 pm ICT by ANILondon, Mar 9 (ANI): A court will soon hear dungeon dad Josef Fritzl claiming that he loved his daughter Elisabeth in his own way, and thats why he kept her as a sex slave for 24 years.
The Austrian sex beast held his daughter Elisabeth captive in a dungeon beneath his home, raped her since she was 18 years of age, and fathered seven children with her.
The trial, which begins next week, will see the 72-year-old incest monster argue that Elisabeth was already having sex with boys when she was barely out of her teens.
He is not a monster. He loved his daughter in his own way, the Mirror quoted Fritzls lawyer Rudolf Mayer as saying.
However, it is believed that abused Elisabeths 11 hours of taped testimony is so harrowing that jurors will listen to no more than two hours a day.
Sources close to the probe have revealed that the 43-year-old victim of Frtzls torture will tell jurors in filmed testimony how she fought kicking and screaming to try to stop him raping her when she was just 11.
Fritzl is on trial for murder, incest, enslavement and unlawful imprisonment. (ANI)
