Arizona Woman Sentenced in Sex Case

(Yuma, Arizona) Earlier this month, a 32-year-old local woman, Melissa King, pleaded guilty to one count of attempted sexual abuse in accordance with an agreement with the prosecution.

The charge stemmed from King having sexual contact with a 16-year-old male.

Court records indicated that King was allegedly involved with the boy on at least two occasions. Both of the incidents allegedly took place at King's home, which was, at the time, across the street from the victim's residence.

Court records also indicated that King allegedly pursued a relationship with the teenage boy after his parents warned her not to.

Consequently, King was sentenced to 25 days in jail and three years of probation. She will also be classified as a high-risk Level 3 sex offender.
