Posted on 13 November 2008 by Loretta

Anand Jon, a celebrity fashion designer, was found guilty of rape and sexual assault on Thursday, November 13th.

Anand, who’s clothing has been worn by A-listers like Paris Hilton and Janet Jackson, committed the crimes between 2001 and 2007 against 9 models who’s ages ranged from as young as 14 to 21 years old between 2001 and 2007.  Prosecutors claimed that Jon would lure the women to Los Angeles by promising them work as models and then attack them.  Prosecutor Frances Young told the jury,

He humiliated, degraded and took what he wanted from them.  He was a predator who took advantage of the weak people around him.  He has no criminal sexual borders.  If he didn’t use force, he laced their drinks.

In addition to the rape and sexual assault charges, Anand was convicted of possession of child pornography.  Jon will be sentenced on January 13th and faces possible life in prison with a 67 year wait before he is eligible for parole.
