Woman, 45, Accused of Sexual Battery of Boy, 11

(Vero Beach, Florida) A 45-year-old woman, Elizabeth Filsell, was arrested today and charged with capital sexual battery for having a sexual relationship with an 11-year-old boy.

From TCPalm.com:
Sheriff's detectives started to investigate Filsell on Monday evening after a man reported overhearing the boy, now age 14, make sexual comments to other children ages 5 to 11 while they were swimming in a pool, according to the arrest affidavit. The man reported the comments to the state Department of Children and Families, which later contacted the Sheriff's Office.

During their investigation and interviews, detectives reported the boy told them "on numerous occasions" he had sexual contact with Filsell, the affidavit stated.

Initial reports indicate Filsell, a housekeeper for a local hotel, eventually admitted to having sexual contact with boy since he was 8 years old, according to the affidavit. She also reportedly said she had sex with him when he was 11.
Filsell is in custody, without bond, in the Indian River County Jail.
