'Deadliest Catch' star Edgar Hansen Admits Sexually Abusing 16-Year-Old Girl [People] People•July 18, 2018

In exchange for his plea to fourth-degree assault with sexual motivation, Hansen, 47, was given a suspended sentence of 364 days in jail, meaning he will not spend time behind bars. He also received two years’ probation and various fees and fines totaling $1,653, with an additional $4,800 fine suspended, court records show.

Hansen was further ordered to undergo a sexual deviancy evaluation and treatment and provide a DNA sample to law enforcement.

The prosecuting attorney’s office agreed not to pursue any charges that may arise in the future in connection with the case, which was first reported on by the Seattle Times.

Neither prosecutors nor investigators immediately returned messages seeking comment. Hansen’s attorney was not immediately available on Wednesday afternoon.

In a brief handwritten statement accompanying his guilty plea, Hansen acknowledged “touching [the victim’s] private areas … for the purpose of my own sexual gratification.”

The assault occurred on Sept. 30 in Snohomish County, Washington, court records show. The victim, described only as a 16-year-old girl, reported her abuse to her therapist in late October, saying it took place at a local home.

The victim said Hansen “kissed her on the lips, touched her vagina and had her touch his penis,” prosecutors stated in a probable cause affidavit.

Investigators spoke with Hansen’s wife, who said she “confronted him” after learning of the abuse, the affidavit shows. He “initially denied” it but “eventually admitted that he kissed [the victim] and touched her inappropriately.”

Edgar Hansen is the younger brother of Sig Hansen, the 52-year-old fishing boat captain who has starred on Discovery’s Deadliest Catch since 2006. Edgar, who has appeared on the long-running reality TV series less frequently, works as a deck boss on the Hansen family’s boat, according to the Times.

In his statement with his plea, Edgar wrote that he has “commenced treatment to ensure that nothing like this assault ever happens again.”

The Hansens have faced criminal trouble before: Sig admitted assaulting an Uber driver in May and told PEOPLE in a statement he was “terribly sorry” and “very embarrassed.”

Discovery did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Wow that’s messed up. Liberals should not be allowed to work in the criminal justice system.

"Wow that’s messed up. Liberals should not be allowed to work in the criminal justice system."

Yeah. Check out the story in MN where a day care owner put a toddler in a noose and left him hanging. Luckily, a father was dropping off his kid and saw the attempted murder and saved the kid.

The judge gave her time served and ten years' probation.

WTF?!?!

Sorry for the kid. It is Unbelievable to me that any man would do this.

I mentioned this on another site. It looks like what he did is a few steps above pedophilia.

Quote: Pedophilia, or paedophilia, is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction to prepubescent children.[1][2] Although girls typically begin the process of puberty at age 10 or 11, and boys at age 11 or 12,[3] criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13.[4] A person who is diagnosed with pedophilia must be at least 16 years old, and at least five years older than the prepubescent child, for the attraction to be diagnosed as pedophilia.[4][5]

Speaking of the above...

As no surprise and predicted.....the beginnings of the addition of another category to put under the LGBTQ umbrella. After pedophiles.....bestiality will be on the radar as a norm. Don't blink and don't laugh....the ranks of those who think pedophilia and bestiality is a sexual orientation are out there.

I was surprised to see Canada allows certain types of animal sex. Some American states and territories allow it too.

I see former Captain Blake Painter died of an overdose....... Captain Elliott Neese left the show to go into drug rehab.... and Edgar Hansen admittedly had a drug problem in his past.......Jake Harris left the show as well to go into drug rehab.

I watch the show....... But it is becoming clear to me that some of those young men make a lot of money fast.... and spend it on drugs.... maybe it’s no more than in the rest of society ?? I read an article that said that crystal meth is widely used by the fishermen to stay awake for 36 hours at a time.

These charges against Hansen are sickening..... a 47 year old married man with kids.... having relations with a 16 year old ??? Disgusting.

Why would he do this? I mean, it doesn't make any sense. I could understand if he thought she was 18 but man.
