The 35-year-old pleaded guilty on May 19 to three counts of sexually penetrating a minor. Five additional charges—including sexual penetration of an underage girl, harassment, and obstructing justice—were considered during sentencing. Fang is scheduled to begin serving his sentence on June 16.
“As a 34-year-old adult man, he knew what he was doing. He knew what was likely to take place each time he visited the victim,“ Judge Tham stated during sentencing.
At the time of his offenses, Fang worked as an acting instructor at First Model School, which caters to children aged 4-14.
According to deputy public prosecutor Lynda Lee, Fang first encountered the victim at an entertainment event on May 4, 2024, where they exchanged contact details.
The prosecution highlighted that Fang consistently arranged to meet the teen alone at night, suggesting premeditation.
The offenses continued even during the teen’s hospitalisation for a flu infection on June 17, 2024, when Fang visited her private room after midnight.
The victim’s mother filed a police report in August after learning about the relationship. Despite police warnings to avoid contact with the victim, Fang reached out to her via social media, telling her he would commit suicide if imprisoned.
She claimed Fang kept the relationship private due to his public profile rather than to conceal wrongdoing.
She was eventually admitted to the Institute of Mental Health and diagnosed with adjustment disorder.
“She lost her confidence and was no longer happy. She will continue to live with the burden of Mr. Fang’s actions, even with the conclusion of this case,“ Lee told the court.
