A 31-year-old woman, Andrea Serrano has been sentenced to a 90-day in prison for sexually abusing a teenage boy in Colorado, United States.
Serrano gave birth to a baby to the 13-year-old boy she had sleeping with, according to KRDO News. The woman was sentenced on Thursday, but her 90 days in jail did not include the seven days she has already served.
She was sentenced after the family of the alleged sexual assault victim condemned the court for initially allowing Serrano to accept a plea deal with no jail time.
The 13-year-old boy’s mother, who also shared her sentiments with the court, explained that giving the 31-year-old no jail time for sexually abusing and having a child with a minor would set a “bad example for the community”. During Serrano’s sentencing, she reportedly expressed her desire to apologize to the victim, his family, her family, and her children.
The Fountain Police reportedly began investigating the 31-year-old after they received a “tip” about her alleged crime on June 27, 2022. She initially faced two charges, one for “sexual assault against a child” and a second for “sexual assault against a child under the age of 15 by one in a position of trust.”
Serrano may begin serving her jail sentence next week.
