Quite often in cases of paedophilia and sexual abuse the victims are plied with alcohol and drugs, including cannabis. The link between these crimes seems less meaningful than that between cannabis and violence, but is nonetheless worth reporting. Here’s a dismally disturbing case from last year: Paedophile who ‘violated boy for his own perverse pleasure’ is jailed.
The court heard that on a number of occasions Logan took the boy to his flat, where he would smoke cannabis with him before ‘pestering’ him to engage in sexual activity.
