Do you have a legal question? Is that why you put this in the family law forum? Or do you just want advice, or a someone to talk to about this?

You boyfriend molested his niece. That's what it boils down to. Even if she did consent to this, she was too young, and they're related. He knew better, but did it anyway.

I don't blame you for being upset. I know that I couldn't stay with someone that molested a child. If he did it to his own niece who else would he do it to? What if he has children one day and decides that they're not off limits? I would never trust him around a child.

This is something only you can decide. Stay, or go. Knowing what you know now you don't owe him any loyalty, even after 5 years together. I'd already be out the door.

As Altenweg asked, since this was posted in the Family Law foru do you have a question on law?

I MIGHT understand it, if it happened ONCE when he was in a very vulnerable state. But the fact that I happened several times means the guy has a sickness. It may be that he can control it or it may not. He is lucky he is not in jail or with a sex offender rapsheet.

This guy is not someone you want to spend the rest of your life with,

He sexually assaulted a minor. Charges could still be brought against him.

If you remain with him are you prepared for his arrest and imprisonment.

Yes, I don't think the statue of limitation would be over, so he can still be arrested and sent to prison as a child molestor and/or rapist. And of course your family will always see him as such. Not only did he have sex with a minor, taking advantage of her, he had sex with a close family member. There is no excuse.

If you chose to stay with him, first he needs to admit his blame and deal with his problem, and I do feel he had and most likely will still have a problem if he has never addressed it properly.

And I would not be as upset over the past, but I would more be concerned about any 12 or 13 year old family member you have he may be around.
