KITCHENER -- A Cambridge woman and her 25-year-old son were sentenced for incest and forgery yesterday for a five-year relationship that led to three more children in the family.
The 42-year-old woman was sentenced to 43 months behind bars while her son was given a 19-month conditional sentence.
They were found guilty in August of posing as husband and wife and having sex with each other between 1996 and 2001.
They cannot be named to protect the identity of their two children, who are now in foster care.
Their relationship only came to light after their third child, a 2-year-old girl, was rushed to hospital under suspicious circumstances in June 2001. The girl died from dehydration.
Her illness was later linked to an underlying medical condition -- common to children of incest -- called adrenal gland atrophy.
FALSE DOCUMENTS
Her parents were not held responsible for her death but police began an investigation that culminated in the couple's arrests on charges of incest, as well as fabricating and using false documents in an attempt to create a new identity for the son.
Justice Pat Flynn called the woman a "monster" during sentencing yesterday.
"I've never encountered a more bizarre case in my quarter-century in the law," Flynn said.
The couple actually got married and the man claimed to be his mother's husband. He even made up a new name, giving himself the title of prince. He donned a pair of glasses and adopted an English accent.
During the trial, jurors heard suspicious social workers pestered the woman for weeks to present her son and her husband together in one room.
She eventually said her son had died in a volcano in the Congo and gave up the charade only at the beginning of his sentencing hearing.
The man said that after hearing the overwhelming amount of evidence at the trial he finally believed he was actually his mother's son.
It happens more often than you might realize. I am this guys last remaining heir, and after a few red-tape obstacles are cleared, I am gonna be rich. My lawyer in Kenya is taking care of it as we speak.
Should both have jail time for child abuse.
On the other hand I wish that condition would do in many of the dozens of inbred cats around here, encouraged by well-meaning retired ladies who set out unlimited amounts of cat food each day.
I believe it is a condition where the adrenal gland has either shrunk or is very small to begin with.
I guess when talked with his buddies about MILFs, he meant his own Mom?
Well, think about it. As loathesome as they are shoudl they be charged with child abuse for bringing the children into the world? I mean without these two low lifes, the kids would never have been, bad adrenals and all.

Things that make you go BWuhhhhhh (full body shiver)
Their names? I'm guessing Oedipus and Jocasta.
Was that the missing penis thread?
You have a point there.
"His rivals used to say quite a bit
That as a monarch he was most unfit
But still in all they had to admit
That he loved his mother.
"Yes he loved his mother like no other
His daughter was his sister and his son was his brother,
One thing on which you can depend is
He sure knew who a boy's best friend is!
"When he found out what he had done
He tore his eyes out one by one
A tragic end to a loyal son
Who loved his mother."
They should come to MA, it won't be long now before incest is legal here, hell, everything else is, why not incest........
Ding ding ding ding,,,,,,We have a winner.......!
Oops he's Candian so change about to aboot.AWB
Deformed kids? Well, they'll drag into the courtroom retarded children who are the product of unrealted spouses, and unretarded children who are the product of incest couplings.
Once the door has been opened for deviations from the traditional man/woman unrelated partners set-up, YOU CANNOT LEGALLY SAY NO TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING.
I hope the idiots enjoy what they have wrought.
One more fly in the consenting adults ointment.
