Annamay Alexander Pleads Guilty

Arrested months back for sexually molesting and raping a young boy she met on Playstation Home, Annamay Alexander plead guilty earlier this month. From the Daytona Beach News-Journal:

A Deltona woman has pleaded guilty to federal charges she traveled to Oklahoma to have sex with a 14-year-old boy.
Annamay Alexander, 44, also known as Annamay Cherry, entered her guilty plea Wednesday in federal court in Oklahoma City, according to Bob Troester, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Sanford Coats.
Troester said Alexander admitted during her plea hearing that she drove to the Oklahoma City area Jan. 9 to have sex with the boy, whom she met through an online Sony PlayStation 3 virtual-reality game. The game allows users to create electronic versions of themselves and interact with others.
Alexander, a mother of three, was arrested in Texas in April, several weeks after authorities issued a warrant for her arrest.
Police found suggestive text and photo messages from Alexander on the boy's phone, according to an affidavit, in addition to a photo stored in the boy's PlayStation console of her in her underwear. In her messages, police said she referred to herself as the boy's wife and used his last name.
Troester said Thursday she faces up to 30 years in prison but a sentencing date has not been set.

This is another perfect example of how Playstation Home is not safe for children & young teens.

Bond Denied For Sexual Exploitation Suspect

I've been following this case as well, and I noticed that this little factoid wasn't posted: Judge Calls Alexander 'Risk To Community'

OKLAHOMA CITY -- A federal judge denied bond Monday morning for a Florida woman charged with sending obscene material to a minor.

Annamay Alexander, 44, met the 14-year-old boy while playing a Sony Playstation 3 game online. Police said Alexander drove from Florida to Oklahoma City to meet the boy at least once.

She was arrested last Wednesday by U.S. Marshals in Wichita Falls, Texas.

The boy's mother was in court Monday and told a reporter from Eyewitness News 5 that she is relieved Alexander is being denied bond. The mother left the courtroom surrounded by family, and she appeared to be upset.

An attorney representing Alexander argued that his client should be allowed to bond out of jail, suggesting she wear a GPS monitoring device.

Alexander is charged with transferring obscene material to a minor, two counts of sexual exploitation of a child and travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor.

LOL rednecks. But this isn't really why I'm posting this. The reason I found this interesting is that it appears in the comments surrounding the news article, someone posted who appears to be the mother of the victim:

Okiemainer, my son played games with her family. She has sons around my son's age. Her family had multiple playstations and different family members played games with him at the same time. We believed he was talking to her teenage daughter on the phone. I asked questions about them. I believed what I was told. I was foolish not neglectful. I was upset after court because I didn't know some of the details that I found out today. I don't want your sympathy. I don't have any for me either just for him.

Oh snap.

Annamay Alexander caught & charged

According to this post:

Some of you may remember the 44 year old woman who seduced a 14 year old boy via Home months back, and how she went on the run. Well they found her and she's been formally charged: http://www.news-journalonline.com/news/local/west-volusia/2010/04

A Deltona woman was arrested this week in Texas and brought to Oklahoma by the U.S. Marshals Service to face federal charges that she sent obscene material to a 14-year-old boy there and intended to have sex with him, according to a four-count federal indictment.

Annamay Alexander, 44, who is also known as Annamay Cherry, was arrested Wednesday in Wichita Falls, Texas. During a federal court appearance Thursday in Oklahoma, she was denied bail until a detention hearing Monday.

Alexander, the mother of three, is charged with transferring obscene material to minors, two counts of sexual exploitation of children and travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor. If convicted she could spend up to 30 years in prison, according to the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma.

Oklahoma City police have been searching for Alexander since February.

Alexander met the teenager through a Sony Playstation 3 virtual reality game over the Internet that allows players to interact with one another through electronic representations of themselves, according to Oklahoma City police spokeswoman Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow in a videotaped news conference.

The local newspaper, The Oklahoman, reported that the victim's mother awoke Jan. 9 to find her son gone. When he returned, Alexander was with him.

The paper reported that Oklahoma City Police Detective Robert Kemmet wrote in an affidavit: "Alexander told the mother the victim intended to marry her daughter and she wanted to talk to him about it, but did not mention her daughter is 9 years old."

Police reported Alexander returned two days later, and the victim's mother also intercepted two telephone calls to her son from Alexander.

According to the paper, Kemmet also wrote that on Feb. 10, the victim's mother found multiple text and photo messages from Alexander on her son's cell phone, including one that said, "My body is yours to do whatever you want with."

A photo of Alexander in her underwear was also found on the victim's Playstation console, according to Kemmet's affidavit. She referred to herself as the 14-year-old's wife and used his last name in notes and messages to him.

Michael Scott Alexander filed for divorce from Annamay this year and the dissolution of marriage was granted March 1.

Cops in Oklahoma City are looking for a 43-year-old woman who they say met a 14-year-old boy in PlayStation Home and ... yep, you can see where this is headed.

Authorities say the woman, Annamay Alexander of Deltona, Fla. (It's always Florida ...) met this boy via Home and sent him some terms-of-use violating messages, such as a picture of her in her underwear. In early January she drove up to Oklahoma City to seduce him.

An affidavit says Alexander later met the boy's mother under the ruse of talking about the boy's desire to marry her daughter. This flipped out the mom, as you can well imagine (she wasn't told the daughter was 9, either). She told Alexander GTFO and never speak to her son again. Alexander didn't follow the instructions. Mom later intercepted two phone calls from Alexander, then found sexy texts on his cell and PlayStation, plus the aforementioned picture.

Alexander, who is a married mother of three, referred to herself as the boy's wife and left subtle messages such as: "My body is yours to do whatever you want with," and "I love you and we are going to get married." The victim then confessed to having a sexual relationship with her and is said to be suicidal now. Alexander is looking at stalking and statutory rape charges but is still at large.

This is a harrowing story for any parent; it's creepy and gross to me, and not just because this obviously unhinged woman looks like Dennis Quaid in a wig. But if Home is to blame then so is the phone company.

Remember, it's not just the females who are getting abused in Home.
