An Aboriginal preacher who pleaded guilty to child sex abuse will hear from his victims in court today.
Yesterday in the Supreme Court in Port Augusta, 52-year-old Winkie Ingomar pleaded guilty to sexually abusing three teenage girls early last year.
Ingomar admitted giving the girls petrol in return for sex in the remote community of Yalata in South Australia’s far west.
Community leader Yvonne Edwards praised the victims’ bravery.
“They was frightened of him, he wanted to kill them if they [told] anybody,” she said.
Today the court will hear statements from the victims about how the abuse has affected their lives.
Ingomar faces up to 10 years in prison and will be sentenced at a later date.
