And another woman, no photo!

A woman was sentenced to 10 years in prison Thursday for having sexual relations with a 12-year-old boy.
Timi Robertson, 36, was scheduled for a bench trial in Richland County Common Pleas Court before Judge James DeWeese, but instead pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual battery.
In exchange for her plea, prosecutors dismissed three counts of rape against Robertson. Robertson was declared a Tier III sex offender, which requires her to register with the sheriff's office every three months wherever she maintains a residence. Robertson originally faced a sentence of 25 years to life in prison.
- You see, they scare you with long sentences, etc, just to get a conviction and a plea.
The incidents occurred between July 2007 and January of this year. Prosecutors said the victim was a family friend.
- As it usually is. The "stranger danger," is a myth! It does happen, but less than 5% of the time.
The relationship was discovered when the victim's mother found explicit text messages on his cell phone.
