Sick rapist who attacked woman as she slept fully clothed snared by friend in secret recording
Jordan Hewitt raped the woman as she slept at his brother's house fully clothed, with the victim immediately calling her mum and leaving the home after waking up A rapist who changed his story multiple times to avoid prison is now behind bars after a quick thinking friend of the victim secretly recorded his account of what had happened. Jordan Hewitt, of Thorverton, Devon met the victim while she was on a night out in Tiverton with her friends in May 2022. At the end of the night, she went to stay at Hewitt's brother's house as she didn't want to wake her mum but after going to sleep fully clothed, she was awoken by Hewitt raping her. The victim shoved the rapist off of her and called her mum for a lift home, where she immediately told her what had happened. Exeter Crown Court heard three weeks later 33-year-old Hewitt bumped into one of her friends whose quick thinking led to the secret recording being made. In the recording Hewitt admitted penetrating her but stopped when she shoved him off. He said that "she clearly met me for a bit of fun" before threatening to beat up the victim if it went to court. The court heard that the victim messaged Hewitt on Facebook where she asked him "why did you do that to me?". Hewitt ignored her question and asked her if she got home okay and said she could call him if she wanted, but she then blocked him. In police interview Hewitt said the victim initiated the sex - but he changed his story many times after hearing the recording and then said he was too drunk to have sex. Then in cross examination Hewitt revised his account again saying that he didn't have sex due to the awkward angle between him and the victim, who was facing away from him. But a jury rejected his explanations and convicted him of rape and he was jailed for seven and a half years on Friday, July 25. Detective Constable Andrew Stacey, from Exeter CID, praised the witness who covertly recorded "manipulative" Hewitt and "played a crucial role in exposing his ongoing deception". 'We welcome the sentence handed down by the court, which would not have been possible without the courage and continued support of the victim throughout the investigation," he said. "I would also like to thank all the witnesses who came forward and gave evidence, particularly one individual whose quick thinking to covertly record one of Hewitt's accounts played a crucial role in exposing his ongoing deception. 'Hewitt is a manipulative man who showed a complete lack of regard for the individual he harmed. His persistent dishonesty and repeated changes to his story ultimately led to his downfall. "I hope this outcome provides the victim with a sense of closure as she continues to move forward with her life.'

Pete Davidson, Elsie Hewitt relationship timeline: From romance rumors to pregnancy reveal
Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt have gone from rumored lovebirds to expectant parents. The "SNL" alum and model, who first sparked dating speculation in March, surprised fans on July 16 when the couple announced on social media that they're expecting their first child. Just days after sharing the baby news, Davidson gushed about fatherhood in a July 22 interview with E! News, telling the outlet that he's "very lucky and very, very happy." "Everybody's just been super excited for me because they know it's been my dream," Davidson, 31, said, adding that he is excited "to take care of something and show it the childhood I didn't have. I assume you just try to give them what you didn't have, and what you didn't like, not do it." Here's a look back at Davidson's relationship with Hewitt, as well as the actor-comedian's romantic history.

Davidson and Hewitt quickly soft-launched their relationship when the "Industry" actress posted a video on her Instagram story one day after media speculation began to swirl. The revealing clip showed an old-school rear-projection TV playing the opening credits of the Nickelodeon cartoon "Rugrats." Just as the theme music ended, Davidson made a comedic entrance, smiling and wearing a white robe.

Nearly 20 years on former navy diver Rob Hewitt reflects on 75 hours lost at sea
On the day he went missing he was diving with friends from Manawatū, kitted in his full navy dive gear – including a tether rope used to tie dive partners together – a weight belt, wet suit and fins. 'The skipper of the boat looked at me and said, 'We don't do that sort of stuff [tether together] here',' Hewitt said. 'They were a little bit cowboyish and that challenged my integrity but I thought, 'When in Rome, do what the Romans do', so I put all I had learned as a navy diver aside.' Sea survivor Rob Hewitt is promoting drowning prevention, hoping his experience will save lives. The first dive didn't go well - an early sign, he believes, of what was to come. 'We resurfaced and my dive partner had grabbed about five crayfish and said to me, 'Didn't you get anything?' 'I had a couple of kina. I said, 'I thought you were getting the kai and I was saving your life because there was some dangerous stuff going on in the water'.' Hewitt said that's when he made the cardinal mistake and went down alone. 'I broke the golden rule and wanted to show off and show these fellas what I could do...I had a karakia when I was 8m deep and asked god for some crayfish and kina. I saw a cray and put it in my bag. Rob Hewitt survived 75 hours at sea after "breaking the cardinal rule" and going down for a dive alone 'I went down another couple of metres and spied about 30 crays. I thought I would get the lot and plant the crays over my body, float up to the surface and show these fellas I am the man. 'It was that arrogance and crossing that line of tikanga and broke the rule of my grandfather – you only take enough for a feed.' Hewitt said he moved into an underwater cave and a rip pushed him out the other side. When he resurfaced he was 600m from the boat, which was heading in the other direction picking up the other divers. The time was 4pm. 'I had no issue because this was my workplace. There was no panic,' he said. Rob Hewitt talking water safety. Hewitt started kicking towards the boat but after 15 minutes realised the current meant he was making no headway, and started feeling concerned about expending his energy. He calculated the food he had consumed and the resources he had with him and decided to let the current take him. He spotted a rescue helicopter and realised the dive crew had called a mayday. 'I thought, 'Hey, I'm the navy diver. I should be the one doing the rescuing'.' It was that arrogance and crossing that line of tikanga and broke the rule of my grandfather – you only take enough for a feed Rob Hewitt The mental game As he waited in the ocean, Hewitt feared being judged. 'I could imagine the headline: Former All Black Norm Hewitt's brother, a navy diver, needed rescuing from the sea.' He tried to use the reflection of his face mask to attract the rescue helicopter but it headed back to the airport. 'I thought my life was only worth 48 minutes of searching. I'm 38 years old, had spent 20 years in the navy, and that's what I was worth.' 'About 8pm, I started to worry and thought, 'Who do I know that's survived out at sea floating in the water – no one',' he said. I did what anyone would do. I prayed for all my sins to be forgiven Rob Hewitt 'I did what anyone would do. I prayed for all my sins to be forgiven because sometime during the night I think I'm going to die.' Hewitt said self-pity soon turned to survival. 'I started playing little games, said karakia, recited my whakapapa to keep my mind active ... I connected to my Māoritanga, who I was as a New Zealander, as a Māori, to my wairua.' The sun rose about 5.30am. Hewitt said his face was cutting up and he was being pushed out to Kāpiti Island. He had four kina and spent an hour eating each one, killing four hours. 'I'm from Ngāti Kahungunu and eat the roe and eat the guts, but before I do, I look around to see if anyone is watching. I was worried about being judged.' Hewitt said he always carried an inferiority complex from being in the navy and being the brother of an All Black. He still had a crayfish and ate it in the evening over three hours, crying and aware it could be his final meal. He noticed his tongue starting to swell, and fingernails coming away from his fingers – something he'd seen before while retrieving bodies from people who had drowned. He was being bitten by sea lice. The third night came and Hewitt had all but given up on surviving. The rescue that saved his life Hewitt went missing around 1pm on February 5, 2006 and was rescued at 4.04pm on February 8 – after 75 hours lost at sea. 'I look up and see a little Zodiac and two of the navy divers ... I thought they were a hallucination. They said to me, 'Bro, what are you doing'. 'I said, 'Waiting for you fellas'.' Rob Hewitt teaching young Kiwis about water safety. Hewitt told the Herald his battle with Tangaroa (Māori God of the sea) and survival was never far from his thoughts. He has written two books and a German film crew is working on a documentary. New Zealand recorded 74 drowning fatalities in 2024 – the lowest since 2018. Water Safety New Zealand says while the reduction is encouraging, many fatalities are preventable, involving not wearing life jackets, entering the water alone, and underestimating the conditions. Friday marked world drowning prevention day. In New Zealand 21 people die annually while gathering kai (food) - that's about 26% of all drowning fatalities. They are predominantly male, adult, and of Māori, Pasifika or Asian descent. Joseph Los'e is an award-winning journalist and joined NZME in 2022 as Kaupapa Māori Editor. Los'e was a chief reporter, news director at the Sunday News newspaper covering crime, justice and sport. He was also editor of the NZ Truth and prior to joining NZME worked for urban Māori organisation Whānau Waipareira.

Jennifer Love Hewitt on 'A Killer Among Friends' doc: 'I'm very intrigued by trauma'
From fictional scream queen to true crime. Jennifer Love Hewitt has become one of the iconic 'final girls' in horror movies, thanks to her role in the 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' franchise. And now, she's sharing the stories of true murders. Hewitt, 46, narrates and executive produces the true crime ID docuseries 'A Killer Among Friends,' airing Mondays (10 p.m. on ID and streaming on HBO Max). 'I was shocked at how many people in my life are obsessed with true crime – and I didn't know it until I said that I was going to be doing the show. And they're like, 'We can't wait to watch it!' I'm not a true crime buff, per se…I was really interested in this show, more because of the human condition of it all,' Hewitt exclusively told The Post. 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt at the 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' premiere in LA on July 14, 2025.

ID Each episode of 'A Killer Among Friends' follows a murder case where the culprit turns out to be someone who knew the victim. '[It's] not something that I've done before, so I was excited for that,' the 'Party of Five' actress said of narrating. 'I feel like that's what we're supposed to do in life: constantly challenge ourselves to do new things.' She 'wasn't sure about' joining the project initially, however. 'I'm used to relying on my face for all the emotions, and bringing those out in that one specific way,' Hewitt explained to The Post. 'So to challenge myself to pay homage to the people lost in these stories and their families and friends who are still here…. I wanted to sound graceful, and to not be in the way of this story. But, to just be the vehicle for the story with my voice.' 8 The ID series 'A Killer Among Friends.' 8 A photo from the trailer of 'A Killer Among Friends.' ID 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt in '9-1-1-.'

'I think for me to realize later in life that maybe some of the things that were talked about in and around me or directly to me as a young female weren't as they should have been,' she said. In an infamous 1996 interview on 'The Tonight Show' when she was 16, Jay Leno asked about her love life and age. 'I don't hold the people asking those questions responsible – it was more that was the thing that was allowed at that time,' she explained. 'Grown men were allowed to ask young girls questions that now, if we looked at that, we would not allow. We were just sort of a part of that time.' She added, 'I do think that these documentaries in general and documentary series really allow people to see things and look at things differently than maybe they do in a magazine article.' 8 Jennifer Love Hewitt at the '9-1-1' ABC premiere event on March 11, 2024.

'I'm very intrigued by trauma, and… how people continue to move through that and find a life after it,' she said. 'So in this series, I'm interested in these young people and how they've gone on to live lives, even though they've been through these traumatic experiences.' Recently, Hewitt also reprised her role as the traumatized Julie James in the latest 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' reboot, which is currently in theaters. The horror flick's end-credits scene suggested a third movie in the franchise could happen. 'Oh my gosh, I have no idea. I mean, truthfully, I was just excited to be asked back for this one. So I don't want to be too greedy,' Hewitt told The Post. 'But as long as there's a really interesting, fun story to tell, and as long the people still care about the characters, I'm always happy to hopefully find my way back there.'
