A well-known YouTuber from Britain recently found himself in court in Perth, facing serious charges of rape and assault. The accused, who goes by the name Yung Filly but is also known as Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, allegedly committed these heinous acts against a woman in her 20s after performing at a nightclub in Hillarys on September 28. After being taken into custody in Brisbane on Tuesday, the 29-year-old was extradited to Perth and appeared in court yesterday.
According to police, Filly has been charged with four counts of sexual penetration without consent, three counts of assault causing bodily harm, and one count of impeding a person's normal breathing or circulation by applying pressure to the neck. These are serious charges that carry heavy consequences. Filly's bail application was initially scheduled for today at the Perth Magistrates Court, but it has since been postponed until later in the day. In the meantime, he remains in custody.
Filly's online presence is quite impressive, with 3.2 million followers on Instagram and 1.8 million subscribers on YouTube. He began his career in 2013 and later ventured into music, which has gained him over 10 million streams on Spotify. His involvement in the online group Beta Squad and collaborations with the Sidemen has also added to his popularity. Filly has even made the transition from online to television, hosting shows such as BBC's Hot Property and his own Yung Filly's Celeb Lock-In. He has also made appearances on Channel 4's The Great Celebrity Bake Off.
While Filly's success and fame may seem enviable, it is important to remember the serious allegations he is facing. The victim of his alleged crimes deserves justice and support.
