The beautiful three-year-old girl allegedly sexually abused by the father
A little three-year-old girl has died after she was allegedly sexually assaulted by her father. The little girl also suffered horrific physical and sexual abuse. The father, it was revealed asked his housemate to get rid of a bong before he called an ambulance, a court has heard.
Matthew Lee Williamson, who has pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Kyhesha-Lee Joughin, found the little girl unresponsive inside his Brisbane home in March 2013.
But instead of calling emergency services, he told his housemate Christopher Kent whom he was having a sexual affair to hide a bong that was inside their home, Brisbane Supreme Court was told.
The revelation came as Williamson's sentencing was unexpectedly adjourned to investigate whether he suffered a 'psychological abnormality'. He has pleaded guilty to Kyhesha's manslaughter but has denied fatally harming her.
According to
Dailymail, at the time of her death Kyhesha was living with Williamson and Kent, who the court heard engaged in 'unorthodox sexual conduct' together.
Kent told the court on Wednesday he witnessed Williamson regularly abusing the girl.
'It was like two adults fighting,' Kent said.
He said Williamson, who generally slept through the day, would lock his daughter in her bedroom for hours on end and would become enraged when she then ended up throwing her faeces inside the room.
Williamson admitted using rope to keep Kyhesha locked away but claimed it was to stop her from getting out at night. He also denied a raft of abuse allegations, including using a large sex toy on Kyhesha, punching her in the stomach, posing naked with her and pulling on her ear until it bled.
Both men blame each other for the violent and sexual assaults on the child.
Williamson wept in the dock as photos of Kyhesha were shown to detail the extensive bruising she had when she died.
But the court heard when Williamson found her lifeless body his first action was to ask Kent to remove the bong from the house before calling triple-zero.
Outside court, Kyhesha's grandfather Doug Joughin said the delay was a 'curveball'.
'We just want closure so we can just carry on,' he said.
