A trans-identified male who made TikTok content has appeared in court charged with rape and domestic violence. On October 20, Manchester Crown Court heard how Jordan O’Brien, who also goes by Jennifer Nieve, exerted coercive control over his partner and sexually abused her.
According to court documents shared by a former friend, O’Brien was charged with six counts of sexual abuse, including rape, assault by penetration, strangulation, coercive control, and threatening to assault the victim with a weapon. According to the court records, the offenses took place between June and December of 2022.
O’Brien is described as having exerted terrifying control over his victim, monitoring her cellular device, destroying her possessions, and being verbally abusive towards her. Among the more serious convictions, O’Brien was found to have raped his victim with a dildo, strangled her, and threatened her with a knife.
On Friday, October 20, O’Brien was found guilty of four out of the six counts for domestic abuse and sexual assault during a hearing at Manchester Crown Court.
O’Brien had amassed over 60,000 followers on social media for videos he made about identifying as transgender, and, judging by comments made on TikTok, had been receiving gifts from his fans. One respondent stated that they had come to regret spending over £100 on O’Brien after learning about the charges against him.
Despite identifying as transgender, O’Brien claimed to hold “controversial opinions” within the community, and affirmed that he believed humans could not change biological sex. In one video, he stated: “I am a genetic male. I was born male. I will always be male. I do not think it is possible – actually, I know it is not possible to go from male to female. You can present more feminine, you can be a feminine male, and you can be born in the wrong body – in my opinion, not scientific fact.”
Since his conviction, multiple former associates of O’Brien have come forward to express their outrage at the situation and reveal more details about O’Brien’s history.
One of his former friends, a woman who goes by the name Daisy Mae, came forward with an apology for the victims while revealing that she had been aware that O’Brien had been running private chats with minors since 2020.
“I’m so sorry to every victim!! I knew this was happening since January 2020. The amount of kids who came and told me Jen was in private Snapchat groups with kids that are 14/15 … I hope you can rest now you have justice,” Mae wrote in a TikTok caption. In the same video, Mae stated that O’Brien was a father of four, and suggested that he had previously served time in prison before.
O’Brien’s former roommate, a drag queen who uses the moniker Charli Angel, also took to TikTok to condemn O’Brien for his crimes. Angel, who attended the trial at Manchester Crown Court, said he had been misled about the serious nature of the charges against him, while referring to O’Brien with feminine pronouns.
@itscharliangel THE TRUTH ABOUT JENNIFER NIEVE O’BRIEN AKA JORDAN O’BRIEN. These will be my last words on this situation. I am shocked and I am disgusted. #jennifernieve #fyp #manchester ♬ original sound – Charli Angel 👼🏼
“I’ve just been at the Manchester Crown Court for the past three days – Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. A while ago Jennifer told me she had a court case coming up, and she really downplayed the charges against her. She said that she’d been wrongly accused, that she would never do such a thing, and I believed her.”
“A few months ago I realized she had a five-day trial at Manchester Crown Court and I realized it wasn’t a minor thing, it was a major, serious thing… I’ve not ever been told the whole truth of who she is, what she’s accused of, or what actually happened… She’s not the person that I thought she was.”
Former roommate Angel added that after the jury found O’Brien guilty on 4 of the 6 counts against him, the judge stated that he would be “put away for a long custodial sentence.” He is set to be sentenced in January of 2026, and has been remanded to custody until then.
