Illinois Church Lady and Foster Son

(Springfield, Illinois) Last week, the first lady of the Lively Stone Temple church, Gwanda K. Tribbet, was arrested for allegedly engaging in sex with her 16-year-old foster son.

Tribbet faces charges of aggravated criminal sexual abuse and criminal sexual assault.

According to Springfield Park District police, an officer on patrol saw a vehicle parked in a back corner of the parking lot of the rose garden at Washington Park. A coat was draped over the window, which heightened the officer's suspicions, so he walked up and shined a light on it and found Tribbet and the boy inside.

As the two were getting dressed, police determined the boy was 16 and that the woman was his foster mother.

Police said the boy told the officer the two were having sexual intercourse. They said Tribbet denied it at first, but admitted to "some fondling and other things."

Tribbet was booked into custody with bond set at $250,000.
