Jesse Stone, aka “Randy John,” of Reddick, Florida, was arrested in June after sexually assaulting a 91-year-old woman

This is the heroic moment a grandmother told her 14-year-old grandson to confess to a sickening crime that will likely land him behind bars for years.

Jesse Stone, also known as “Randy John,” of Reddick, Florida, was arrested in June after sexually assaulting a 91-year-old woman.

Despite his age, he has been publicly named by police as he is being charged as an adult.

Disturbing court documents reveal how he ‘punched’ on his victim and then punched her in the face.

Stone repeatedly denied the allegations when confronted by police.

But then alone with his grandmother in an interview room, she pressed him to tell the truth.

Video of that emotional exchange was released following his guilty plea.

It shows his grandmother, who has not been publicly named, urging him to come clean after lying to police.

“She deserves the truth to be told and you know it. Personally, I can’t believe it. This is a terrible thing… that is a terrible thing,” she said, but he insisted he was not capable of such a crime as this.

‘It’s hard for me to believe too. It’s really hard for me to believe that you would do something like that. But how often have you been caught in lies? ‘ said the grandmother.

“This woman deserves to have the truth, she deserves it and you know it.”

‘Look at her! Look at her face! ” she asked, pointing to evidence photos of the woman’s injuries.

The grandmother continued, “I’ve never seen you hurt anyone.

“What the hell are you doing out there at that time of night, Randy John? It doesn’t make sense. ‘

Despite his insistence on being an “outdoorsman,” she countered, “you’re not an outdoorsman!” You’re a sat-in-front-of-the-TV kind of guy!

“I hope and pray you didn’t do this to this woman. I hope and pray you didn’t do this because this is horrific. This is a human being and she deserves justice, she does. ‘

‘If this happened to your sister, what would you do? If you know anything about this, Randy John, at least for her, if you care about her, tell the truth: “She leaves the room.

‘Tell the truth. Randy John, you’ve lied about things before. ‘

It was then that stone began to buckle. He admitted that he had visited the victim’s house before.

A DNA evidence match sealed his fate and he was arrested.

Court records describe how around midnight the unnamed victim saw a 'dark shadow' in the hallway of her home - before being held at this detention center days later

At earlier points in the statement he repeatedly tried to deny that he had assaulted the woman.

“There’s no way my DNA is on her underwear,” Stone insisted.

The investigators then showed him a photo of the badly beaten victim.

“Oh my God, holy cow,” Stone’s grandmother said, aghast.

‘We know what happened. What I want, in your own words, everything that happened that night.

“I know what happened and it will only help you to be honest with me about what happened,” the investigators urged.

Unspecified evidence seized from the scene also helped, causing him to admit to his crimes. He is now ready to be tried as an adult

Stone, police said, did not expect the victim to be awake when he broke into the house and panicked, causing him to attack her.

While the confession itself has been redacted, authorities confirmed that he admitted to viewing pornography on the victim’s iPad prior to the attack.

Stone, charged as an adult, pleaded guilty last year to two counts: sexual assault of a minor and burglary with battery.

Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods released a detailed statement reflecting on the case and the “unimaginable” nature of the case.

“It came as a shock that someone would commit such an act on a 91-year-old, but it is truly disturbing considering the young age of the detainee,” the statement said.

“While I firmly believe he should be held accountable for his crime, as a father, my compassion goes out to his family.

“Hopefully his arrest will lead to him receiving help that will prevent further such acts.”

He is scheduled to be sentenced on February 7.
