Mother-of-two Rachel Hicks arrested after flying 5 hours for sex with 13-year-old boy
A mother-of-two has been arrested after flying across America to have sex with a 13-year-old boy she met playing video games on the Inteet.
Rachel Ann Hicks, 36, is being held on suspicion of child molestation and rape.
She allegedly befriended the teenager in an X-Box live chat room, according to investigators.
The online relationship progressed to phone calls, texting, e-mails and sending sexually explicit images and movies between one another, the sheriff's office said in a press release.
Hicks, from Lake Forest, Califoia, told the boy she was 23 years old.
She flew to Maryland and met him at his home where they had sex over the Thanksgiving holiday, said police.
Shortly after, the boy's family discovered ‘romantic’ text messages on the boy's cell phone and he confessed the truth.
She used a fake name when communicating with the boy, but police tracked her down and served a search warrant on her home in Orange County on Friday. She was arrested without incident.
All the evidence collected will be forward to Hanford County Sheriff's Office in Maryland for their investigation.
Based on new information, investigators are seeking to identify a second possible victim, a Califoia boy under the age of 18, authorities said.
