Influencer found guilty by jury of sex attack on 14-year-old boy – to shocked gasps from her supporters

A social media influencer has been found guilty of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old boy twice after she admitted she was attracted to him and said she saw him as an adult.

The 46-year-old woman, who cannot be identified, had pleaded not guilty to two counts of aggravated sexual intercourse with a child under 16 years old.

She was accused of drunkenly climbing into bed with a teen on an evening in mid-2021 before engaging in oral and penetrative sex with him.

After an eight day trial in the NSW District Court, a jury of eight men and four women found her guilty of the child sex offences.

After an eight day trial in the NSW District Court, a jury of eight men and four women found her guilty of the child sex offences.

‘Guilty,’ the jury foreperson declared on Friday in response to both charges.

There were gasps in the back of the courtroom from about 10 supporters of the woman as the verdicts were read to the court.

Family members were seen bent over, sobbing, while one man said ‘what?’

The woman sat stone-faced as she looked directly at the jury, showing no emotion as she learned her fate.

The 46-year-old woman had admitted to kissing the teen in bed, but maintained she had stopped before any sexual activity occurred.

On Friday ,the jury rejected her evidence and found she had proceeded to perform oral sex on the 14-year-old before having penetrative sex with him.

Only hours before she sexually assaulted the teen, the influencer was filmed performing a ‘sexually suggestive’ dance for him.

In the video shown to the court, she can be seen rubbing circles on her bum, lifting her shirt to reveal her stomach, and twerking in front of the child.

Crown prosecutor Emma Blizard said the sexual dance was proof of the woman’s state of mind within hours of when she entered the bedroom.


She highlighted a phone call between the influencer and the teen in mid-2022, which was lawfully tapped by police.

‘I started loving you so much (that) I got it confused, like, I started getting attracted to you,’ the woman told the teen before laughing.

‘You’re a man now. You’re not a boy, you’re obviously a man.’

During the tapped conversation, the influencer claimed she didn’t remember having sex with the teenager.

Ms Blizard told the jury she was either too drunk to remember sexually assaulting the boy, or she was lying about it not going beyond kissing.

‘I had a serious alcohol problem and I used to have blackouts,’ the 46-year-old woman told the teen after he raised the sex assault during the call.

She recalled drinking up to one and a half bottles of red wine that evening, but the teen estimated she had consumed three bottles of wine.

The influencer also told the court she gave ‘half a glass’ of wine to her victim before she sexually assaulted him.

She will be sentenced by Judge Sarah Hopkins at a later date.
