Ms Speedy may be charged with sexual grooming of a child. Mr Muscles is 17 years old and
therefore a child for purposes of the relevant legislation. Ms Speedy deliberately planned to
take him to an isolated place and give him alcohol because she believed that this would
reduce his inhibitions and make him more likely to have sexual intercourse with her. She
expressly told him that the beer would relax him and allow her to demonstrate her love for
him. Her conduct was therefore directed at reducing his resistance or unwillingness to
participate in a sexual act.
2. Supplying liquor to a minor
Ms Speedy may also be charged with supplying liquor to a minor in contravention of
section 10 of the Liquor Act 59 of 2003. Mr Muscles is 17 years old and is therefore a minor.
Ms Speedy deliberately gave him a beer and forced him to drink it even though she knew
that he disliked alcohol. She is not his parent or adult guardian and therefore cannot rely on
the exception that permits certain adults to supply a moderate quantity of liquor to a minor
under supervision.
3. Common assault
Ms Speedy may be charged with common assault for forcing Mr Muscles to drink the beer.
Mr Muscles clearly did not want to drink the alcohol and only consumed it because Ms
Speedy forced him to do so. Her conduct was intentional and unlawfully interfered with his
