Woman Guilty of Sex with Girl

(Waynesburg, Pennsylvania) A 38-year-old parolee, Marcie Lynn Burroughs, pleaded guilty Wednesday to sex crimes against a 15-year-old girl last July. Burroughs was on parole after being convicted in 2005 of engaging in sex with four boys, 13 through 15.

Burroughs was sentenced to 11 1/2 to 23 1/2 months in jail for the sex charges with the boys. She faces another two to four years in prison on the latest charge, a Greene County prosecutor said.

Apparently, Burroughs cannot resist temptation.

After Burroughs' guilty plea, an assessment of her sex offender risk was ordered and performed. Results were reported at a hearing in October and, on December 14th, Greene County Judge H. Terry Grimes officially ruled that Burroughs will be classified as a sexually violent predator under Megan's Law.

She will be required to register and report to authorities for the rest of her life.

Sentencing has been scheduled for January 8th. Burroughs remains in jail, unable to post bail.
