31-year-old woman jailed for having baby with 13-year-old boy

A 31-year-old woman, Andrea Serrano, who confessed to sexually abusing a 13-year-old boy, has been sentenced to 90 days in jail in Colorado, United States.

The 31-year-old woman also gave birth to a baby fathered by the boy.

Serrano, who was sentenced on Thursday, May 18, will serve 90 days in jail, excluding 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 initial plea deal solely consisted of Serrano serving “ten years to life” on a “sex offender intensive supervised probation”.

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”.

“I feel like my son is robbed of his childhood. Now he’s having to be a father. He’s a victim, and he’s going to have to live with that for the rest of his life.

“I feel like if she was a man and he was a little girl, it would definitely be different. They would be seeking more. I feel like because he is not a woman, they are not. They are having compassion for her,” the victim’s mother told KKTV after the plea deal was made public. .

During Serrano’s sentencing, she reportedly expressed her desire to apologise to the victim, his family, her family, and her children.

The 31-year-old will begin serving her jail sentence next week.

The Fountain Police reportedly began investigating the 31-year-old after they received a “tip” about her alleged crime on June 27, 2022.

Serrano, who was arrested in July 2022, confessed to the crime.

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.”

However, she entered a guilty plea to a charge of incest in February.
