A former Christian pastor who admitted abusing a 13 year-old victim who was allegedly “offered” to him by the victim’s father has been jailed for more than ten years.
David Volmer, 41, who was also known as Dawid Volmer, pleaded guilty earlier this year to 12 offences, including indecent dealing with a child, sexual penetration of a child and stupefying with intent to commit an indictable offence.
He will have to serve more than eight years in prison before he is eligible for parole – and had his jail time reduced by two years after promising to give evidence against the girl’s father, who has been charged with sex offences against his daughter.
At a sentencing hearing at WA’s District Court today, Judge Mark Herron was told how Volmer offered sexual massage services on an advert on website Craigslist – which the girl’s father responded to.
