Porn film use detailed in incest case

VIENNA, Nov. 14 (UPI) -- Prosecutors in the homicide case of Austrian resident Josef Fritzl have alleged the man forced his daughter to watch porn films with him in her cellar home.

Prosecution charges against the 73-year-old retired engineer include descriptions of how Fritzl allegedly would keep his daughter trapped in the cellar of his home in order to rape her after watching the adult films, The (Britain) Daily Telegraph said Friday.

Court documents detail how Fritzl would allegedly use physical force to coerce his 42-year-old daughter, Elisabeth, into having sex with him numerous times a day.

Prosecutors have alleged that Elisabeth had seven children during her incarceration and Fritzl's only assistance in the birthing efforts was providing an unsanitary blanket and a pair of scissors.

Fritzl was arrested after his daughter informed authorities of her father's alleged crimes and is now facing a litany of charges in relation to those allegations.

The Telegraph said Fritzl has also been accused of bringing about the death of his son, Michael, for allegedly not taking the newborn for medical attention after the baby began struggling to breathe.
