Northern Cape man slapped with three life sentences for raping minors

In 2016, Jason Witbooi followed three girls aged 11, 12 and 14 from their school to a nearby veld, where he raped them.Police spokesperson Sergio Kock says DNA results linked Witbooi to the incident.

“Police opposed bail and Witbooi remained in custody up until he was handed down three life sentences for rape. General [Koliswa] Otola reiterated that gender-based violence and femicide is one of the priorities for the Northern Cape SAPS. He therefore lauds Warrant Officer Shaniel Antonie from Kimberley family violence, child protection and sexual offences unit for her meticulous investigation that led to the three life sentences.

58-year-old Louis Armstrong Pepping was sentenced after his conviction last week of raping a six-year-old girl in 2019.Share article

The fact that no so far away. a criminal who has done similar or worse to young children & got bail, makes victories like this seem so shallow. These child victims are very lucky they that justice was served.

When you do the crime you got to spend the time behind jail bars cause clearly you don’t like your freedom

Great news, hope he gets some of his own medicine everyday for the rest of his miserable life
