biological parents who are supposed to look after and protect their children. As in a case in North Jakarta,there was
a biological father who had tedcommit sexual abuse against his biological child who was still 5 years old. To answer
research problem, the author uses empirical methods based on reality in the field or through direct observation. The
data obtained was through information on social media from the mother of the victim. The results obtained in this
research indicate a lack of legal certainty from law enforcers before this case went viral.
