Boy Who Appeared On Supernanny Detained For Rape

 As the titled said,a teenager who appeared on Supernanny as a child has been detained for rape for 10 years in prison.

Y'all remember little Jacob Young from the Young Family on Supernanny back in 2005,right? Well.. Here's the sad thing. It didn't actually do anything to help Jacob. He was 3 years old at the time when the episode was film and now he's 18. According to BBC News,the judge dismissed a letter from Jacob's mother which said the 2005 show led to a ''campaign of abuse and mockery''. Jacob Young has been confirmed to have strangled a victim almost to unconsciousness in her own home,making her fear for her life. The judge said that Jacob Young had an extreme form of sexual curiosity or unhealthy fantasy.

The court heard Young spent the night of October 13th 2018 stalking and taking photos of vulnerable women,before he spotted the victim being supported by her boyfriend as he walked her home. During a trial in 2019,Young's defense claimed he was making sure she got home safely,but the court heard he had a premeditated plan to steal the stranger's bag so he could return it as a hero figure. Once the boyfriend left,Jacob entered the flat and attacked her. Judge Levett said evidence from the victim suggested Jacob enjoyed the violence and she only escaped after promising to let him do whatever with her if he ever let her go to the bathroom. The family was featured in a 2004 episode of Supernanny,in which the five young boys were described as having no respect for their home,their parents or each other. Like I stated earlier,in a letter sent to the court,the mother described the impact that appearing on the Channel 4 show had on each of her five sons.

                         Claim Embellishment

''Your mother said appearing on that TV program led to a campaign of mockery and abuse from the public and peers and school friends'',said Judge Levett. Jacob's mother claimed he was very ''protective'' of women following a fire at the family's home in 2007,which led to considerable media attention. She suggested her son was a person of good character who could not have done what was alleged. All her claims were dismissed as ''embellishment'' by the judge. The court heard Jacob Young had a previous conviction for threatening a 12 year old girl with a knife when he was 14. Jacob Young of Beechcroft Road,denied rape,committing actual bodily harm and theft but was found guilty by a jury. He is sentenced to 10 years in a young offenders' institution with an extended license period of five years.
