At her arraignment on March 3, Pasternak testified that he started investigating Lajiness a few weeks before, when the victim’s mother walked into a police station and complained that Brooke Lajiness, a 38-year-old wife and mother, was having sex with her son.
Lajiness reportedly confessed later on to having sex with the teen and exchanging the nude pictures.
Police found that she started exchanging photos with the teen while he was still in middle school. She was facing an additional charge in relation to the photos.
Lajiness is scheduled for sentencing on Aug. 7, and faces up to 20 years in prison.
The confessed pedophile is currently free after posting $50,000 bail. As part of her bond conditions, Lajiness is not allowed near school property or around minors except for her own children.
She is also not allowed to use computers, social media websites or to drink alcohol or take drugs.
The judge also ruled that she should be free to travel to Toledo, Ohio to visit her family while she’s free on bail, so long as she lets the court know in advance.
Counseling, not prison. This woman has issues, but the kid came back for more several times, so the abuse here doesn’t warrant prison.
You’re a moron.
