AZ Woman Accused of Sex with Minor
[Previous 8/12/14 post]
(Lake Havasu City, Arizona) A 42-year-old local mom, Tammy Lynn Hankins, has been accused of engaging in sex with a 16-year-old male student.

Hankins faces four counts of sexual conduct with a minor and one count of furnishing obscene or harmful items to a minor.

Detective Tom Gray conducted interviews with the victim and Hankins last December. The teen indicated he had sex with Hankins in homes located on War Eagle Drive, Cherry Tree Blvd. and S. Acoma Blvd between late July and early November, 2013.

“He does not remember specifics about each time but he had sexual intercourse with Tammy between two dozen and three dozen times,” Gray’s report stated. “Tammy also told him to deny everything if anybody asked about what was happening.”

Hankins, a physician’s assistant, admitted having sex with the teen eight to ten times. She told Gray that she initially resisted the boy’s advances.

Details on booking unavailable.
