Spain karate teacher gets 302 years for rape



A Spanish court handed a 302-year jail sentence on Friday to a karate champion for raping dozens of pupils at his martial arts school. Fernando Torres Banea told his pupils that sex would make them better at karate, raped and abused 40 children, some of them younger than 13. His wife Maria Jose Gonzalez was sentenced to 148 years and another karate teacher, Ivonne Gonzalez, to 126 years, after both were convicted of taking part in the abuse. The three will likely serve 20 years at most, the maximum penalty for the crimes under Spanish law.

After reading this, I felt disgusted due to the fact that a karate teacher actually tricked his pupils to have sex by saying they would get better at their karate skills. This would surely affect all the children he had abused in years to come as losing their virginity to a person they do not really know and for something they want but cannot be really achieve( Improving their karate skills) is horrific. This would surely damage their lives as it is something that cannot be erased.
