A Taylorsville woman faces two felony charges related to alleged sexual contact with an underage boy.
Sarah Mae Crutchley, 28, faces two counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor, a third-degree felony. Crutchley is accused of sexually abusing a 14-year-old boy in Middle Canyon last July.
According to a report from the Tooele County Sheriff’s Office, Crutchley contacted the boy on Facebook around 11 p.m. on July 16. Crutchley allegedly asked him to come for a ride with her and the boy agreed, leaving his home without telling his mother.
In an interview in the report, the victim said Crutchley talked about her sex life while they drove and when they parked, told him they were going to have fun and touched him.
The boy said Crutchley then told him to get water out of the back of the vehicle. The seats in the rear of the vehicle were folded down and Crutchley again began touching him, even though he told her to stop.
According to the report, the victim said then Crutchley performed oral sex and had intercourse with him. In his interview with police, the boy said he kept telling Crutchley “no”.
After the incident, Crutchley and the boy allegedly walked in the canyon for a half hour and took pictures together. Crutchley then drove him back home.
When the Tooele County Sheriff’s office interviewed Crutchley, she denied having sexual relations with the boy. She admitted to picking up the boy, going to the canyon and taking pictures but said they simply walked and talked.
According to the police report, Crutchley said she “knew it looked bad” but did not have sex with the boy.
Crutchley’s initial appearance in Tooele County Court was originally scheduled for Feb. 2. Her lawyer filed for a continuance and it has been changed to March 2.
