Florida Man Allegedly Claims 'Voodoo' Compelled Him To Rape 13-Year-Old Relative

West Palm Beach police charged Jean Innocent, 41, with sexual battery with a child, incest and impregnation of a child after he allegedly admitted to raping his victim.


A 41-year-old South Florida man allegedly told investigators he believed "Voodoo" compelled him to rape his 13-year-old relative after the minor's hospital visit led police to accuse him of impregnating her.

Jean Innocent was taken into custody on Dec. 19 and charged with two counts of sexual battery with a child, one count of incest and another of impregnation of a child, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by Oxygen.com from the West Palm Beach Police Department.

The minor — whose name and relation to Innocent were redacted from the report to shield her identity — was brought to St. Mary's Hospital in West Palm Beach after complaining of abdominal pain that day. A pregnancy test revealed that she was roughly six weeks pregnant, according to the affidavit.
Tatum wrote that Innocent came into the girl's room, pulled down her pants, told her "give me 10 minutes," got on top of her and began raping her. Allegedly, the girl recalled, he stopped and said "never mind" after the girl said "no" and cried. The encounter, she said, hurt and made her "feel weird," the document states.
