Wisconsin Woman Accused of Sex with Boy

(Sheboygan, Wisconsin) An 18-year-old local woman, Heather L. Heinen, was accused this week of engaging in sex with a 13-year-old boy. Heinen faces one count of felony sexual assault of a child under 16 years old.

The boy, who said he has known Heinen for two years, told police the two had sex at Heinen’s home sometime in mid-March, according to a criminal complaint. He said having sex was Heinen’s idea, the complaint said.

According to the comment thread at the link, Heinen comes from a broken home, has the mind of a child and was raised by a cancer-inflicted grandmother. It's believed that she cannot fully understand the charges leveled against her.

If convicted, Heinen reportedly could be sentenced to 25 years in prison. I don't think so. More likely, she'll see probation and counseling.
