According to this report, both boys were under the age of 16 at the time of the alleged sex.

"You see these kinds of things on television but you never expect for it to happen in your community," said Chilton County Sheriff Billy Wayne Fulmer. "I'm glad we were able to get Ms. Chapman away from other children and stop this from continuing."

The sheriff's investigators continue to search for other possible victims while Chapman sits in jail under $203,000 bond.
