Volleyball coach 'had no idea' sex with 16yo under his care was against the law

A West Australian volleyball coach who is facing a possible jail term for having sex with one of his 16-year-old players had no idea what he was doing was illegal, a Perth court has been told.

The offences occurred over a four-day period late last year, and some of them were committed at the home the man shared with his partner and two children. Defence lawyer Curt Hofmann described the situation as a"mutual consensual arrangement", saying the two became"infatuated with each other" and it led to"a brief, albeit improper relationship".

No because your 'head' was focused on other things

Seriously !!!!

Did he also not think it was morally and ethically wrong?

What happened to the working with children check done by police?

Yeah right. Ignorance of the ‘Law’ is no fkn excuse!!! 🔥this dirt bag.

He probably also believes robbing banks legal. Off to jail you go.

I didn't know that was against the law, either. How long has that been the case?

Sure Bill ?.

I call bullshit on that one!
