Alabama Woman Guilty of Sex Act with Boy

(Phenix City, Alabama) A 24-year-old local woman, Ashley Stokes, pleaded guilty yesterday to orally sodomizing a boy who was under the age of 16.
Stokes, wearing a white jail jumpsuit and orange slippers, stood before the judge and answered a series of questions about the June 23 incident. The victim lived down the road from her father's Phenix City home, and she performed the sex act on the boy in that home, she said.

Assistant District Attorney Max Smith has said Stokes wrote the boy letters and had his younger brother deliver them. Landreau said the letters discussed her feelings for the victim, the sex act she performed and her desire to repeat the act. The boy's mother intercepted the letters, leading to charges against Stokes.

Stokes initially faced charges of sexual misconduct and enticing a child into a house for immoral purposes. Landreau said the grand jury decided a more appropriate charge would be second- degree sodomy after it considered the evidence.
According to the plea agreement accepted by Russell County Circuit Judge George Greene, for the crime of second-degree sodomy Stokes will receive three years in prison and a $2,000 fine when she is sentenced in January.


[Update 01/23/08]

Yesterday, 24-year-old Stokes was sentenced to three years in prison.
Ashley Stokes sat with several other prisoners in front of a jury box in the Russell County Courthouse. It was the same courtroom where she pleaded guilty to second-degree sodomy before Circuit Court Judge George Greene on Nov. 29.
Maybe next time she'll think twice before mixing it up with a 14-year-old boy.
