Darren Goddard has been placed on house arrest pending reconstruction of missing court records from his trial.
The article from Citizen.co.za discusses the case of a former primary school counsellor from KwaZulu-Natal, who was convicted of raping a 13-year-old student. The convicted rapist, whose identity is protected, was sentenced to 10 years in prison but was released on parole after serving only three years. This early release has caused significant distress and anger among the victim's family and the community, especially since the crime occurred in 2019. The article highlights the leniency of the sentence, the impact on the victim who now suffers from depression and has dropped out of school, and the broader implications for justice and rehabilitation in cases of child sexual abuse. The community's reaction underscores a call for stricter sentencing and better protection for victims of such heinous crimes.
