Caregiver sentenced for rape of woman at LSS accommodation

The woman has an intellectual disability and several other diagnoses. According to the district court in Nyköping, this means that she was dependent on the carer.

The woman has stated, among other things, that the man forced her to have an abortion and sterilize herself, which the man denied.

However, the man has admitted that they had a sexual relationship.

The district court believes that the man forced her to have intercourse by “seriously abusing her dependent position”.

He is sentenced to five years in prison and must also pay SEK 730,000 in damages to the woman.
