Alabama Woman Gets Prison - Update

(Florence, Alabama)

A Lauderdale County judge sentenced Dana Allen to 36 months in prison.

Officials said the sentence was part of a plea deal.

Allen was found guilty of second degree rape after she admitted to having sex with multiple underage boys, but only one was under the age of 16.

Allen's attorney and husband asked the judge for probation, but the judge ordered Allen to serve her sentence in full, behind bars.

No news on whether Allen will be required to register as a sex offender.

(Florence, Alabama) A 38-year-old woman, Dana Myhan Allen, has been accused of engaging in sex with a 14-year-old boy.

Allen has been charged with second-degree rape.

The youth is a student at Wilson High School. Lauderdale County Superintendent Bill Valentine says school officials conducted their own investigation several months ago when rumors of inappropriate behavior surfaced.

Lauderdale County Chief Investigator Travis Clemmons says deputies were looking into the allegations for more than a week before Allen was arrested.

Allen was booked into custody at the Lauderdale County Jail with bond set at $5,000.
