Delaware Babysitter Accused of Raping Boy, 11

(Dover, Delaware) A 19-year-old Felton, DE babysitter, Cassandra Epperson, was arrested this week for allegedly engaging in sex with an 11-year-old boy she was caring for.

Epperson has been charged with rape.

The 11-year-old boy told investigators he was watching television with his siblings and got up to go to the bathroom in the rear of the home near the back door.

The baby sitter followed him into the bathroom, "pulled down her pants and underwear" and told the boy to do the same, police said in court records.

When the boy refused, Epperson told him that she would "tell his mom," without giving any specifics.

The boy did not tell his mother what happened for a week.

Epperson was booked into custody and released on $2,000 secured bail.
