Ontario woman pleads guilty to luring 13-year-old boy for sex

| | Comments (2)

An Ontario woman accused of luring a 13-year-old boy and pressuring him to perform oral sex on her has accepted a plea offer from prosecutors that includes a one-year jail sentence.

Margarita Oropeza, 30, agreed to plead no contest to a felony sexual battery charge Tuesday in West Valley Superior Court.

According to prosecutors, in October Oropeza invited over a 13-year-old autistic boy who lived next door in the 1300 block of South Sultana Avenue.

The woman convinced the boy to rub her feet, then invited him to return the next day.

When he returned, Oropeza convinced the boy to perform oral sex on her, according to prosecutors.

The boy told his mother about the incident the day it allegedly occurred, and Oropeza was arrested the following week.

Oropeza was initially charged with committing a lewd or lascivious act with a child under 14 years old, a charge that carries a potential prison sentence of three, six or eight years.

In addition to her jail sentence, Oropeza will be on probation for three years and be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of her life, according to the plea form in her court file.

I am very curious as to why Mr. Bigham told and showed where this situation has taken place. I know that you want to be as thorough as possible and possible have a word count quota when submitting a article, but don't you think its puts the child and the woman in jeopardy for some further ridicule? Just a thought.

Says the guy trying to sell his house a block away fromt the incident. :)

If someone is going to ridicule an autistic child, they are going to do it whether or not the child was involved in a sex related crime.
