The victim stated that she was invited by a friend of the same age to stay overnight at a home located in a Valencian town. At night, when she went to bed, she was surprised by the presence of a camera that was focused on the double bed where she was going to spend the night with her friend, the father of this girl and his current partner. In the early morning, she woke up to feel that her friend’s father was caressing her buttocks, among other acts of a sexual nature, in which she did not stop until his partner woke up.
