Just reading on NineMSN that they had a baby in 2001 that died from a congenital condition...

[Fairlane]

Ahh South Australians.

Cue for Bango music. Im pretty sure in places like Canada and some US states where it was a serious problem they made incest illegal, even if consential.

[Rodp]

Surely this should be illegal? Talk about a shallow gene pool.. feel sorry for the innocent child who's going to be the target of scorn, if not a whole swathe of medical issues.

[Jesk]

Being in Mt Gambier which can be very shallow minded (homosexuals DO get bashed) so they could be in for a very rocky future with other people, but they do deserve it! the poor kids dont

[DJL351]

SA...... proof Tassies can swim.

As for the story on 60 minutes.... I thought it would have been more suited to Jerry Springer.

Incest couple 'had another child'

A father and daughter, who have a baby girl together, had another child who died a few days after birth from a congenital heart disease, court documents show.

John Earnest Deaves and his daughter Jennifer Anne Deaves are at the centre of an incest scandal in South Australia over their seven-year relationship.
ADVERTISEMENT

The pair revealed their relationship on the Nine Network's 60 Minutes program on Sunday night, saying they were just asking for some respect and understanding.

In March this year, they were placed on three-year good behaviour bonds after pleading guilty to two counts of incest.

District Court sentencing judge Steven Millsteed said the first count of incest was based on an act of sexual intercourse which resulted in the birth of the couple's first child.

The second count of incest related to an act of sexual intercourse which resulted in the birth of their second child in May last year.

"The first child was born in 2001 but died a few days after birth due to a congenital heart disease," Judge Millsteed said.

The couple had started a relationship together after being reunited in 2000, almost 30 years after Mr Deaves separated from Jenny's mother.

Because of problems with her own marriage, Ms Deaves had gone to live with her father at Yongala, in South Australia.

Their physical relationship developed later that year and both ended their marriages and began living together.

"Each of you say that the other has provided care and affection that was missing in your marriage," Judge Millsteed said.

"You also say that although you are father and daughter, that you were virtually strangers when your relationship commenced and that the relationship was based on mutual love and respect."

The couple had their first child while living in Rockhampton, Queensland, before moving to Port Pirie, in South Australia.

After the birth of their second child they moved to Bordertown, near the Victorian border where the Department of Families and Communities became aware of their relationship and turned the matter over to police.

Judge Millsteed said that when contacted by police the Deaves made full admissions.

He said both Jenny and John Deaves told him that they accepted their sexual relationship must end but hoped they would be able to continue to support one another and the children.

But he said while the case was not typical he had to impose a sentence that impressed upon them that any resumption of their incestuous relationship was unacceptable.

"The offence of incest exists not merely to protect children from sexual abuse," Judge Millsteed said.

"In my view, other relevant factors include the need to prevent the high risk of congenital defects in children born of incestuous relationships and to prevent children suffering psychological harm and social stigmatisation."

Mr Deaves told Channel Nine that he "initially" thought having sex with his daughter was wrong.

"Emotions take over, as people no doubt realise. There are times during your life where emotions do rule the heart, it rules the head," he said.

"I knew it was illegal. Of course, I knew it was illegal but you know, so what."

How the F@&* did they get away with it twice?

I heard about this on the radio on the way to work this morning, what on earth is the world coming too ffs...

[InfernoSR]

Mrs Deaves said soon after reuniting with her father she began to see him as a man first and her father second.

"I was looking at him, sort of going, oh, he's not too bad.

"Like you might look at a man across the bar at a nightclub."

IS SHE BLIND?!?!?!?! Brings new meaning to "oh daddy..." :

[blueoval]

It doesnt make it right even if you didnt know your long lost daughter or not. The fact that they knew they were biologically related is the issue I have.

I have heard stories of people hooking up not knowing they were related by accident and then taking appropriate measures there after.

But to have sexual relations with your relative, and know it despite the time frame of knowing that person is WRONG!

I'll give you an example of why I think its wrong.
I am actually adopted, my sister was also adopted. We both have totally seperate biological history and families. I view my sister as just that. Even though I could get away with having a relationship with my sister due to not being biologically related, I find it terribly repulsive. I just dont understand why in the above case they dont either, moreso.

[GRNKPR]

i hear the Banjo s Thats what i call keepin it in the family !!!!!!!!!!!

The family tree just did a u turn

[SNB05T]

I really don't think the world is "coming" to anything?.. In fact I think incestuous relationships were much more prevalent years ago. (and probably swept under the carpet among "commoners"?)
Until not too long ago, the entire "Royal Family" was riddled with it! Herein lies another much more sinister meaning of "Blue Blood".
Wasn't Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII, actually his illegitimate daughter?
Prince Charles of Wales and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall are 9th cousins, Queen Elizabeth II is second cousin once removed from Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and Queen Victoria married her first cousin, Prince Albert
The incestuous Royal "Blue Blood" was also seen as the key to long life, or the fountain of youth.
Still don't make it bloody right though!

[Quasi]

Sort of brings new meaning to the term 'older man'....or even 'keeping it in the family'. At least the kid won't have to give any thought to which parent's surname she'll go by. :

[AUIIForte]

Don't you guys realize? The only reason for a woman to want to have sex with her father is either:
1. The father is a crazy *** psycho who demands it! (Doesn't look like this case)

OR

2. The 'Female' of, said relationship, is SO ugly, has SUCH a low self esteem in her own personal self, and is running from fear (that she will never find a man), that she goes to her father and s him, saying she loves him. I bet she didn't want to do it, but its her final choice because its the only guy that would accept her!

Funny thing is, that guy, I see him ever tue, and thur, shopping at ALDI! (Sorry, if that is too much info, mods, I wouldn't mind deleting it!)

EDIT: By the way, hasn't anybody here been to England? I heard incest is normal there? : {(Just kidding), maybe

I was going to post that myself, only I thought it might be mistaken for defending the couple in the story. You are quite correct though, inbreeding has been common among the Royals for centuries, one of the problems with not being allowed to marry commoners. After a few generations they all ended up being cousins of some sort, which meant carrying on the Royal lineage meant no option but inbreeding. Charles' ears didn't get like that by accident, you know.
