A 39-year old man in Germany was arrested by policy and found guilty by a court on Wednesday for abusing his wife and forcing her to sleep with their 60-year old neighbor. According to investigators, the man was a drunk who needed money for beer. So, instead of getting a job he sold his wife to his neighbor.

In return for money to buy beer, the man’s wife had to sleep with the 60 year old. 

 The alcoholic reportedly beat his wife regularly, and abused in her in other ways. His threats prevented his 32-year old wife, and mother of his three children, from going to the police. She slept several times with the neighbor, out of fear that refusing to do so would cause her husband to hurt her tremendously, or worse.

The pimping husband was sentenced to three years in prison. Additionally, he will have to attend a clinic to break with his alcoholism. Lastly, the 60-year old neighbor received two years conditionally – if he does something else wrong in the coming time, he will have to serve two years in jail – and he has to pay the woman involved 2000 euro in damages.
