Arlington woman accused of sex crimes with three teenagers

ARLINGTON — A 16-year-old Arlington boy went to police in April.

He reported years of sexual abuse by a neighbor.

Detectives believe they’ve identified at least two other victims, now 17 and 20.

The woman, 34, was arrested and booked into jail Monday.

She posted a $25,000 bond Tuesday evening. The Daily Herald generally does not identify suspects before they are charged.

The woman is being investigated for rape, child rape, molestation and indecent liberties, according to the arrest reports. She also is accused of possessing child porn, communicating with a minor for immoral purposes and distributing narcotics to a minor.

The first boy said the relationship started with text messages and pictures that became increasingly explicit. He said they began having sexual contact when he was 14.

The boy said that in recent months the woman had supplied him with alcohol, marijuana and prescription painkillers. At times, the woman would call him in sick to school so he could go to her house during the day, he said.

The two other young people in the case lived in the same neighborhood.

One used to babysit the woman’s children. She told police she was 16 when the woman tried to set her up with a man who was 34. She said the woman had kissed her and given her alcohol around that time. She also said the woman took pictures of her partially clothed and sent those images to men.

The woman would watch the Disney Channel and say the boys on TV were “scrumptious,” according to the former babysitter.

The other boy involved is 17 now. He said the woman at one point had gone into his bedroom and made advances, which he refused. He also said that when he was 14, the woman would take off her clothes around him during casual conversation.

He received sexual texts and pictures from her around that time, he said.

The woman and her attorney met with Arlington police Monday, preceding the arrest.
