And many of you will ask, And why wouldn't he give it to her? Well, we can say that in this Internet and social networks like facebook, instagram, etc. We, like the laws go two or three steps behind and many times we find surprises.
And why is all this coming? Because a mother used her daughter's Facebook messages to denounce and detain her daughter's stalker and another girl's sexual abuser and five more crimes of exhibitionism and convicted of all of them. The defendant appealed the sentence alleging that the mother used the messages without the minor's permission, but The Supreme Court gave the reason to the mother because she accessed her daughter's social networks to protect her.
The young man Abel Ruiz He was convicted by the Provincial Court of Tarragona as responsible for a crime of sexual abuse of a child under 13 and five crimes of exhibitionism before other girls. In all cases, ** the young man used social networks ** to commit his crimes.
The young man appealed the sentence alleging that the mother of one of them had used the messages without the minor's permission and therefore the evidence could not be admitted.
By law, the parents of a minor over 15 years of age must have the child's express permission to post their social media messages. But in this case, the Supreme Court, despite recognizing said minor's right, gives the mother the reason to overlap the obligation of a father to ensure the safety and well-being of his minor children.
The Court understands that parents cannot be dispossessed of the ability to control their minor children in order to ensure their safety, especially in the case of a criminal activity.
That is to say, our children could denounce us in case of posting on Facebook some private message from them in their personal accounts, but we could use them in case of being convinced that our son was in danger, or (and this is something that does not no father likes) that he was committing a crime.
