Benjamin and Hope Jordan have hired Khan to babysit their son Finn. According to them, Khan showed herself perfectly in the interview and her competence was not in doubt.
However, this trust didn’t last long. Five months later the couple began to notice that their dog was trying to protect the boy when Khan arrived.
“The dog was very aggressive towards him and several times we had to chain him so he wouldn’t bite Alexis,” says Hope.
Trying to find an explanation for their pet named Killian’s strange behavior, the parents decided to follow the babysitter. Hope decided to hide the phone under the sofa so that she could record what happens at home during their absence.
When the couple returned from work and listened to the recording, she was horrified by what she heard. “It all started with swearing.
Then we heard the sound of a slap, and then how our son’s crying changed from a whining sob to a real hiccup. Only five months later we found out we left our son with a monster, ”the Jordans say.
The police arrested Alexis Khan a few weeks later and she soon confessed to the crime. The woman faces one to three years in prison. As part of the punishment, Khan will also be enrolled in a special register, where all child abuse convicts are added, meaning he will no longer be able to work as a babysitter.
