A paedophile raped a 12-year-old boy without wearing a condom after meeting his victim on a dating app.
Terence Bouris, 63, pleaded guilty in the County Court on Tuesday to penetrating a child under 16 and grooming a child for a sexual offence.
Bouris sent his victim “sexualised” messages after meeting the victim on an adult dating app.
Bouris, who thought his victim was 17, drove to the boy’s Patterson Lakes’ home in November last year.
The “scared” victim told his attacker he was 14 but this didn’t stop Bouris who raped the boy in his Jeep.
Bouris, from Frankston, contacted the boy after the attack hoping the pair could “meet up” again.
He his victim lewd messages and images until the boy ceased contact.
The victim’s father reported the incident to police after he reviewed CCTV and observed his son get into Bouris’ Jeep.
Investigators raided Bouris’ Frankston home and seized evidence including his iPhone.
Bouris denied “any sexual activity” with the boy but later admitted he was “aroused” and the victim was a “good looking boy”.
The victim’s mother, in her victim impact statement, said she told her son that he’d “done nothing wrong” and “it’s going to be OK”.
The mum also spoke of her anguish waiting for blood tests results as Bouris raped her son without wearing a condom.
The court heard the mum was particularly concerned about the “dreaded HIV virus”.
Bouris, via his lawyer, submitted he was “ashamed” of his offending and hoped the victim “can grow up a to have a happy life”.
Bouris, a convicted fraudster, claims on his Facebook page to be a manager at a NSW surf life saving club but told the court he was “unemployed”.
Bouris, a grandfather, also claims he owned a tour business and managed a resort bar in Koh Samui.
Bouris also has a stack of photos of himself in Koh Samui — a Thailand island known to be a hunting ground for paedophiles.
His lawyer submitted a community correction order was in range but Judge Anne Hassan said the offending was way too serious.
“He goes back again and pursues what he thinks is a 14-year-old boy,” Judge Hassan said.
“This is too serious for a community correction order and I’m not going to have him assessed.”
Bouris’ bail was extended for sentencing on September 15.
He will be placed on the sex offender registry for 15 years.
