Woman pleads guilty to sexually abusing teenage boy

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 07:08 · Archive

A woman has pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a teenage boy over several months in 2025.

Jessica May Nakkan, aged 31, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to persistently sexually abusing a teenage boy under 16. The abuse took place over approximately five months in 2025. She had previously pleaded not guilty and was granted bail after her arrest that year.

The prosecutor said the guilty plea would be accepted in full satisfaction of the indictment, meaning other charges against Nakkan will no longer proceed. However, the prosecutor also noted that the parties had not yet agreed on the facts of the case and would do so within a week. Justice Jon White SC ordered a pre-sentence report and an assessment for an intensive corrections order.

Nakkan will face court for sentencing to begin on 6 April 2027. Her bail has been continued until that date.
