ALACHUA COUNTY, Fla. — A former cult leader will spend the next 30 years in prison after she pleaded no contest to killing two toddlers more than 30 years ago.
A judge found 79-year-old Anna Young guilty of murder in the death of Emon Harper and manslaughter in the death of Katonya Jackson in the 1980s. The 30-year sentence Young received will most likely keep her behind bars for the rest of her life.

'House of Prayer' leader gets 30-year term in toddler's death


It’s taken more than 30 years but somebody has finally been held accountable for the death of toddler Emon Harper — 79-year-old former Micanopy-area cult leader Anna Young.
Young pleaded guilty and was sentenced Wednesday to 30 years in prison for killing Emon — who also went by the name Moses — through abuse and starvation when she ruled over the House of Prayer.
Former Eighth Circuit State Attorney Bill Cervone, who made the decision to charge Young decades later and without Emon’s remains ever being found, said the elements of the case made it unique.
“One of a kind, truly one of a kind,” Cervone said. “I was always certain she was criminally responsible, that it was a classic cult situation … and the others were under her sway.”

House of Prayer cult members recalls stories of abuse, murder


Fluker recalled the torture the child endured.
“Everyone was chanting, ‘The blood of Jesus! The blood of Jesus! The blood of Jesus!’ And [Young] was in the middle of a circle,” Joy recalled.
Katonya’s brother John Neal told investigators Young forced the toddler to run in circles and beat her if she stopped.
Soon after, Neal said, the child began having seizures
“I remember hearing her screaming in the next room over getting a spanking, and it was intense,” Fluker said. “And then all of a sudden, the crying stopped. And then all of a sudden everyone rushed in, and I thought she was dead because they rushed her out and I just saw her limp body.”
