Mum blames daughter's rape on bestiality

A Queensland mother has admitted to begging and slapping her daughter when she refused to have sex with her then 32-year-old partner.
Giving evidence in court, the woman said her partner had threatened to release bestiality photos involving her if she did not get her 15-year-old daughter to sleep with him, the Townsville Bulletin reports.
The woman said that after a night of heavy drinking, the man had taken photographs of her having sex with his cattle dog Buster.
When he then blackmailed her she asked her daughter to have sex with him.
She said 'no' straight up," the Townsville Bulletin quoted the woman as saying.
In an attempt to recover the bestiality images in a swap, the mother then took photos of her daughter naked and gave them to the man.
But the man allegedly continued to demand sex with her daughter and the girl refused.
It was something she didn't want to do, the woman said.
Desperate for the photos to remain a secret, the woman took her daughter to a local hotel and booked two rooms.
They had some dinner and alcohol before the man arrived and she left them alone together.
When the woman saw her daughter again she was upset and crying but told her nothing had happened.
Two weeks later, the pair was staying at the man's house when he allegedly demanded sex from the daughter.
The woman said he was refused but about four hours later he left her bed and went to her daughter's bedroom, where he raped her.
After being intimidated into having sex with the man on several occasions the girl fled the house in May 2005. She told a told a friend about the alleged abuse and authorities became involved.
The man admitted to having sex with the 15-year-old but insisted it had been consensual.
The trial continues.
