Tennessee Woman Gets 3 Days Jail in Statutory Rape Case

(Memphis, Tennessee) In February 2009, a 31-year-old Cordova woman, Emily Louise Zinkus, was accused of engaging in sex with a 17-year-old neighbor boy.

Becky Stone said her son, now 17, confessed he'd been sleeping with the 31-year-old Zinkus for two years.

"Your best friend doesn't do this with your son, at 15," Stone said.

On Wednesday, after serving three days in jail, Zinkus was granted one year probation. She must pay the courts $30 a month plus a $100 fine, and she's ordered to stay away from Stone's son.

If Zinkus doesn't violate her probation, she qualifies to have her record erased.
