Sick paedophile branded jury RACIST after conviction for raping Australian schoolgirl

A paedophile branded a jury racist after they found him guilty of raping an schoolgirl in Australia.

Patrick Joseph Hunter was found guilty of raping a child under the age of 10, and indecently dealing with another in the far north of Western Australia.

The trial began on Tuesday in the Broome District Court with the 43-year-old pleading not guilty to four charges of indecent dealing with a child under 13 and one charge of sexual penetration of a child under 13. However, on Thursday, the jury found him guilty on all five counts.

Both victims involved in the offences, which occurred between April 2019 and October 2020 in a remote village, were aged 10 or under. Upon hearing the verdict, Hunter began shouting at the jury.

He said: “You’re racist. I’ve got family of my own.

“I hope you all burn in hell… I didn’t do them things, man.”

Prosecutor Nikki Conley told the court that Hunter undressed one of the victims and sexually penetrated her when she was aged between seven and nine.

Ms Conley said: “He put a t-shirt over her face so she wouldn’t scream.”

She added that the child described Hunter touching her “in the knickers part, the part you use to pee”.

The offence of indecent dealing happened when Hunter and the victim were playing a game together.

Discussing evidence given by the child during a police interview, Ms Conley said: “[She] remembers playing a game with sisters and cousins. He pretended to be a monster, his hands were over her bra part.

“Touching the part of her ordinarily used for breastfeeding babies… holding her up like Simba from The Lion King.”
