Thirty-one-year-old Andrea Serrano, from Colorado, who admitted to having sex with a then 13-year-old boy, and then having his child, has been sentenced to three months in prison after she was initially freed shortly after her original arrest in July of 2022 on a $70,000 bond.
The Fountain Police Department had charged Serrano at the time with sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust, as well as sexual assault on a child. Investigators said that Serrano admitted to the relationship.
In March, it was widely reported that Serrano’s lawyers had come to a plea deal with prosecutors that would force her to register as a sex offender but meant she would avoid prison and be put on probation until May.
Now, she must serve 90 days in prison in addition to still having to comply to the original terms of the plea deal. The terms included 10 years to life on sex offender intensive supervised probation.
Since her arrest, Serrano has given birth to the teen’s baby. The child is in her care. His family are planning to petition the courts to gain custody. The victim is now 14 years old.
‘He looked at her like a mother figure and even called her “mom” before,’ according to the criminal affidavit in the case, cited by the Colorado Springs Gazette.
‘I feel like my son is robbed of his childhood. Now he’s having to be a father. He’s a victim, and he’s going to have to live with that for the rest of his life,’ the victim’s mother told KKTV after the plea deal was made public.
‘I feel like if she was a man and he was a little girl, it would definitely be different. They would be seeking more. I feel like because he is not a woman, they are not. They are having compassion for her,’ she added.
