INCREDIBLE!!!Nigerian Gets Life Sentence In U.S. For Raping, Impregnating, Torturing Six Daughters

Horror For 30 Years: Nigerian Gets Life In U.S. For Raping, Impregnating, Torturing Six Daughters
An award-winning Nigerian music director, Aswad Ayinde, who was found guilty of fathering children with his daughters, will spend the rest of his life in jail.
Ayinde, 55, of Paterson, New Jersey, U.S., was sentenced to 50 years in prison on Friday, July 26, after being found guilty in the second of five expected trials. He is accused of repeatedly raping his six daughters, resulting in six children being fathered. Mr. Ayinde was found guilty in his latest trial of having intercourse with a daughters when she was as young as eight-years-old.
The second sentence adds to the 40-year sentence Mr Ayinde received in a 2011 trial for sexually assaulting a separate daughter.
Mr. Ayinde is known for directing the music video for the Fugees 1996 smash hit "Killing Me Softly."
In a disturbing disclosure during his first trial, Mr. Ayinde's former wife said he was trying to create a "pure family bloodline" by impregnating his daughters.

He even claimed during a pre-trial hearing before the first trial that the world was going to end, and it was just going to be him and his offspring and that he was chosen.
In this latest trial, it was revealed that Mr. Ayinde began having intercourse with his second daughter from the time she eight-years-old, impregnating her four times.
The sexual assaults happened for almost 30 years until Mr. Ayinde and his wife separated, officials said. The intercourses occurred in numerous homes across northern New Jersey, even while the family was under watch of state child welfare officials, according to NBC New York.
Some of the rapes even took place in an abandoned funeral home.
The family moved as far away as Florida to avoid investigation after case workers removed multiple children from the Ayinde household in 2000, resulting in Mr. Ayinde being arrested for kidnapping for trying to take them from state custody in a medical center, NBC New York reported.
He pleaded guilty to lesser charges and received a year's probation – as he continued raping one daughter for at least another two years, according to officials.
The depraved father also beat and starved the girls using wooden boards and steel-toed boots for even "minor transgressions," Ayinde's wife testified at the first trial.
Some of the children Ayinde fathered with his daughters were born in the home, with at least two babies who died in the home having been buried without notifying authorities or obtaining birth certificates, NBC New York reported.
Ayinde's tortured daughters were homeschooled and isolated from other children so as to keep the family secrets hidden, the station added.
With his wife too afraid to confront him, Mr. Ayinde carried out his evil plan without hindrance even while directing the music video for the Fugees' 1996 breakout hit 'Killing Me Softly', for which he won 'Best R&B Video' at the 1996 MTV Music Video Awards. The Fugees are also originally from Northern New Jersey.
Mr. Ayinde also fathered 12 additional children with an additional three women, according to court records.
Mr. Ayinde faces three more trials over the alleged assaults.

Rapist Ekene Anoliefo loses appeal to stay in UK

 
A jailed rapist has lost an appeal to be able to stay in the UK and will be sent home to Nigeria.
Ekene Anoliefo, 38, claimed deportation would breach his human rights because he had a cousin in the UK.
He was jailed for 12 years - later reduced to nine in 2009 for the rape of a 19-year-old woman in Aberdeen.
His appeal was heard by Mr Justice Blake, who said the public interest in getting him out the UK outweighed his right to respect for his private life.
Anoliefo - the son of a Nigerian politician - pretended to help the woman before holding her captive in his car and then raping her on a bed at his flat.
At the time of sentencing the judge described the attack as "particularly brutal and degrading".
He was ordered for deportation last December and now, after an appeal to the Upper Tribunal, Immigration and Asylum Chamber, has failed in his human rights bid to stay.
Lawyers for the rapist had argued that he had lawfully lived in the UK for four years as a student and had hoped to be granted indefinite leave to remain once he finished his studies and found a job.
Anoliefo argued that he had a cousin in the UK as well as a girlfriend from the country- who had not seen him since 2008.
Rejecting his appeal, Mr Justice Blake said a more substantial private life would need to be shown in a case where someone had not previously had indefinite leave to stay in the country.
He said: "It is unfortunate that permission to appeal was granted, since this appeal is wholly without merit.
"It is obvious that, where a claimant has been convicted of rape and the conviction upheld on appeal, and certainly any rape with the aggravating features identified by the sentencing judge, even if there were private life to be weighed in the balance, no properly self-directing judge could have done other than to have dismissed the appeal on the basis that the public interest manifestly outweighed it."
