Detroit, MI, August 21, 2026 —

British social media personality Yung Filly, real name Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, is set to face a retrial in Australia on three charges of rape. This follows a previous trial where a jury found him not guilty of choking and four counts of rape. He was convicted on two assault charges during that same trial, which concluded last month.

The initial trial could not secure a majority verdict from the jury on the remaining three rape charges. These charges stem from an alleged incident said to have occurred in a Perth hotel in September 2024. Details regarding the specifics of the alleged incident and the dates of the upcoming retrial were not provided.

Yung Filly, also known as Andres Felipe Valencia Barrientos, is a prominent figure on social media platforms. The legal proceedings against him have garnered attention due to his public profile. The outcome of the retrial on the three rape charges remains pending.
