Woman Guilty of Sex with Boy, 5
[Previous 6/16/07 entry]
(Sanford, Florida) Yesterday, a jury convicted 32-year-old Kelly Marie Lumadue of capital sexual battery for engaging in sex with a five-year-old boy. Leonard Lumadue, Kelly's husband and a professional pornographer, filmed the sex in 1996.
Leonard died in 2003 and, afterward, Kelly cleaned out the house, including pornographic videotapes. A garbage collector retrieved the tapes, viewed them at home and notified the authorities. Kelly was then arrested and charged.
Defense attorney James "Tad" Figgatt said Leonard Lumadue made his wife do it.
Nonetheless, the jury was convinced of Kelly's guilt and she was led away from court in handcuffs. Sentencing is scheduled for July 27th when she faces the only punishment allowed by law, life in prison without parole.
I don't want to even know how an adult woman has sex with a five-year-old boy.
[Update 9/15/08]
(Sanford, Florida) The conviction of Kelly Lumadue, now 33, was thrown out by a judge citing "potential juror misconduct and an overly-aggressive prosecutor."
This week, Lumadue goes back on trial for a redo before Circuit Judge Debra S. Nelson.
