A Brisbane man who pimped out a 16-year-old schoolgirl rewarded her with chicken nuggets after she had sex with middle-aged men, a court has heard.
Ronald Vikrash Gander, 27, was living with his 16-year-old girlfriend in Brisbane in June 2008 when his teen lover's school friend moved in after running away from home.
Brisbane District Court was told to pay the rent on their Brisbane unit, Gander and his girlfriend told the girl she would have to work as a prostitute.
Using his credit card, Gander placed several ads in a Brisbane newspaper offering the girl's services.
The girl, who cannot be named, had sex with men aged between 40 and 60 and also took part in a lesbian romp with a 25-year-old woman who responded to the advertisements.
Crown prosecutor Patrick Power said after the girl was injured during a sex session she asked if she could stop the work but Gander's girlfriend told her if she did they could not pay the rent and they would all be left homeless.
The girl confessed what was happening to a school guidance counsellor and police were alerted.
When questioned, Gander, who has a history of dishonesty and fraud offences in Queensland, admitted his crime.
He said the money earned went on living expenses, hire car costs to drive the girl to jobs and buckets of chicken nuggets for her to eat.
Gander today pleaded guilty to procuring prostitution of a young person and knowingly participating in the provision of prostitution with a circumstance of aggravation.
Judge Marshall Irwin is expected to sentence Gander later today.
Gander's girlfriend has also been charged and is yet to be dealt with by the courts.
