NH Woman, 19, Accused of Sex with Boy, 15
[Previous 3/29/08 post bumped]
(Dover, New Hampshire) A 19-year-old Alton woman, Ashley K. Dwyer, was indicted by a Strafford County grand jury for allegedly engaging in sex with a 15-year-old boy on three occasions last year.

Dwyer faces three counts of felonious sexual assault, each punishable by up to 7 years in prison.

In most places, as I recall, a 19-year-old mixing it up with a 15-year-old is not criminal.
