Two Year Probation for Cobra Owner Helder Claro
Helder claro a pet shop owner was sentenced to two years probation for groping two teenaged girls.

His deadly cobra forced the evacuation of a rooming house beside his home. Helder Claro was convicted in May of two counts of sexual assault and one count of sexual exploitation.

The teenage victims testified that Claro caressed and groped them on several occasions in 2005 while briefly working in his pet shop. One of the girls testified that Claro terrified her by talking about letting snakes loose in people's homes. The victims said they were terrified at first to complain because they feared Claro's temper.

Carlo denied the charges saying that it was the girls who would bump into him accidentally. And that they were framing him because he has fired them from the job.

The father of five, with a minor criminal record, recently finished serving the equivalent of a year in jail after pleading guilty to mischief and common nuisance for letting his cobra escape. It was seen slithering through the walls of his semi-detached rental home Last fall, the snake threat forced long-time elderly tenants to move from the rooming house adjoining Claro's rented home and cost two landlords dearly in lost rental income. The snake was never found.

Claro also kept a cobra at his locker at work. He didn't mention it when he was arrested, and a co-worker who found it narrowly missing being attacked, a snake expert testified.

That is my dad and no matter what anyone one says about him he is a loving guy and father and wouldn't dare try to sexually assault anyone ... and you may "oh he's your father, of course your going to stick up for him" well you know what i never had my father in my life ever since i was about 6 or 7 years old and i am now 18 and have finally got to see him again ... and for me , being his daughter is something to be proud about and not ashamed of. Those girls were stupid for thinking that a father of 5 awsome kids would ever be able to do this ...
