Surrogate dad convicted of over 20 child sex offences
It had been reported that David John Farnell, 56, from Western Australia, had been a convicted sex offender, but new court documents have revealed the extent of the abuse he carried out — and is likely to raise pressure on the Australian government to intervene in the case.
Farnell and his wife Wendy are at the centre of a scandal that left a Thai mother caring for a baby with Down’s syndrome, while the couple left the country with the child’s healthy twin.
