Mum

Thirty three year old Jess Brooks paid for a 24 hour parking permit and parked her car outside her mother's house, for what she expected to be a routine induced labour at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital.

However, complications during the birth meant her labour lasted a whopping 21 hours. At one point during the labour, Ms Brooks' mother left a note on the windshield of the car telling parking wardens the keys were with the couple at the hospital, the Sunday Telegraph reported.

Ms Brooks finally gave birth at 3am the following morning, having been awake for 30 hours. 

The stepfather was found guilty of one count of rape, six counts of serious indecent assault, two charges of indecent exposure and five charges of domestic violence.

The teenagers’ mother was found guilty of one charge of aiding rape, four counts of aiding serious indecent assault, one count of domestic violence and one of common assault.

The couple appeared before Judge Justice Cato.

“Cases involving sexual offending on young people are taken very seriously by the Courts and are of the utmost importance,” Justice Cato said.

At least, that's what Sala Parker keeps telling herself.

The 26-year-old South Aucklander's title unification fight against Anthony Joshua was finally made official late Sunday night, with an April 1st (NZT) date booked for Cardiff's Principality stadium.

It shapes to be the biggest stage arguably any New Zealand sportsman has ever appeared upon, with an audience of over 80,000 inside the stadium and the eyes of the wider sporting world certain to be tuned in.
