A VILE paedo flipped a coin in front of his victim to decide how he was going to sexually abuse her, police say.
Benjamin Calvin Thomson, 37, inflicted sex acts on the 15-year-old for a minute before a phone call interrupted the ordeal.
He had taken the girl mushroom hunting in Des Moines County, Iowa, earlier this month when he offered her the choice between two different forms of abuse, it’s claimed.
Thomson is also said to have abused her once again two days after the first attack.
The victim told a relative of the alleged assaults on May 17 and was then interviewed by police.
Thomson was charged with third-degree sexual abuse on Friday.
He is also accused of grooming the teen with explicit messages on Facebook messenger.
Thomson is said to have admitted “joking” about having sex with the girl and owned up to tossing the coin to police.
At first he denied any kind of sexual contact with the girl, but later said nothing happened that she didn’t consent to.
Court documents seen by The Hawk Eye read: “Benjamin stated he had made joking comments about having sex with her.

“Benjamin also stated he did make comments to her and flirt with her, but he never laid his hands on her.”
Asked about the coin toss, the papers allege: “Benjamin then said, ‘Nothing ever touching, or anything was ever forced. That’s all I’m going to say.'”
Thomson has been released on a $10,000 (£7,900) bond ahead of trial.
