Story here. Excerpt:

'A Colorado woman whose whirlwind sexual relationship with a teen boy she babysat ended in the boy's suicide got tossed in jail and hit with a probation stint that could last a while.

Brenda Harding, 30, of Canon City, pleaded guilty to a charge of sexual assault on a child. She was sentenced to 90 days in jail in addition to 10 years to life on probation, KRDO reported.

She began hooking up with 15-year-old Tristen Hagen, of Buena Vista, Colo. while working as his caregiver.

The terms of her sentence forbid her from having contact with anyone under the age of 18 until a risk assessment is completed - a ruling that includes her own two children. She also must register as a sex offender.

Hagen committed suicide in April after Harding ended the relationship at the urging of the teen's father, who had begun to suspect they were involved in hanky panky. He died of a drug overdose.'

Dear god, has anyone read the comments? This woman took advantage of a kid, twisted him around so badly that he killed himself when it ended, and the father is being blamed for the kids death for insisting it be ended. what is wrong with our society?

Wow! A whole 90 days for sexual assault on a child? One that ultimately lead to the boys untimely death? The pussy pass is really starting to piss me off! When you see the rights of a young boy get trampled like this for the sake of keeping some sick woman out of jail it deeply disturbs me. Needless to say, with the genders reversed, the guy would have gotten likely 5-10 years for sure.
