•Aswad Ayinde
An award-winning American music director Charles McGill, who also went by the name “Aswad Ayinde(not Nigerian just an Alias),” who impregnated one of his daughters four times has been found guilty and will spend the rest of his life in jail, reports Daily Mail online.
Charles, 55, of Paterson, NJ, was sentenced to 50 years in prison Friday after being found guilty in the second of five expected trials in which he is accused of repeatedly raping his six daughters, resulting in six children being fathered. He also fathered 12 additional children with an additional three women, according to court records
Charles was found guilty in his latest trial of having intercourse with one of his daughters when she was as young as eight-years-old.
The second sentence adds to the 40-year sentence Charles received in a 2011 trial for sexually assaulting a separate daughter.
Charles is known for directing the music video for the Fugees 1996 smash hit Killing Me Softly.
In a disturbing disclosure during his first trial, Charles's former wife said he was trying to create a ‘pure family bloodline’ by impregnating his daughters.
He even claimed during a pre-trial hearing before the first trial that ‘the world was going to end, and it was just going to be him and his offspring and that he was chosen.’
In this latest trial, it was revealed that Charles began having intercourse with his second daughter from the time she was eight-years-old, impregnating her four times.
The sexual assaults happened for almost 30 years until Charles and his wife separated, officials said. They occurred in numerous homes across northern New Jersey, even while the family was under watch of state child welfare officials, according to NBC New York. Some of the rapes even took place in an abandoned funeral home.
The family moving as far away as Florida to avoid investigation after case workers removed multiple children from the Charles household in 2000, resulting in Charles being arrested for kidnapping for trying to take them from state custody in a medical centre, NBC New York reported.
He pleaded guilty to lesser charges and received a year’s probation – as he continued raping one daughter for at least another two years, according to officials.
The depraved father also beat and starved the girls using wooden boards and steel-toed boots for even ‘minor transgressions,’ Ayinde’s wife testified at the first trial.
Some of the children Ayinde fathered with his daughters were born in the home, with at least two babies who died in the home having been buried without notifying authorities or obtaining birth certificates, NBC New York reported.
Ayinde’s tortured daughters were home schooled and isolated from other children, so as to keep the family secrets hidden, the station added.
With his wife too afraid to confront him, Mr. Ayinde carried out his evil plan without hindrance even while directing the music video for the Fugees 1996 breakout hit Killing Me Softly, for which he won ‘Best R&B Video’ at the 1996 MTV Music Video Awards. The Fugees are also originally from Northern New Jersey.
Mr Ayinde faces Three more trails over the alleged assaults
Police say the family squatted in an abandoned funeral home in East Orange, New Jersey and elsewhere around the state, where McGill beat his kids with boards and kicked them with steel-toed boots when they didn’t obey.
He also raped all five of his daughters to maintain his obviously solid bloodlines. Three of the girls gave birth to his six daughters/grandchildren. The babies were delivered at home. Two eventually died, and the rest never got birth certificates.
Police say the family constantly moved to stay ahead of child welfare investigators, at one point fleeing to Florida. They were also home-schooled and kept under rigid watch so they wouldn’t tell others.
McGill’s ex-wife Beverly was too afraid to intervene on her daughter’s behalf, believing she would be beaten. She eventually fled her husband and filed for divorce. She will now testify against him at trial.
The five daughters have grown up and moved away to undisclosed locations with their kids.
The 51-year-old McGill will soon face five separate trials involving each daughter. He’s charged with 27 felonies, including sexual assault, lewdness,
child endangerment, and criminal sexual contact.
