The cop pleaded guilty on Wednesday in a Palma court after paying the two victims €10,000 each for sexual favours. The first victim was found in September 2020 on the Romeo app, a dating site for gays, bisexuals and trans people.
The man groomed the 15-year-old by chatting for four months until the boy agreed to meet at Inca station to have sex with the man in exchange for an iPhone. The cop did not give the phone to the boy, instead at a later meeting driving him to the Puig de Santa Magdalena where they had sex in exchange for €80.
The accused used the promise of the phone to arrange further meetings, but the minor refused. The iPhone was eventually given in January 2021 and the liaison ended.
