Linetta J. Holmes, 42-year-old eastern Missouri mother of four has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for having sex with several teenage boys.
Mrs. Holmes was originally facing eight different counts involving at least six teenage boys in the Crawford County area in early 2008. She pleaded guilty to five of those charges as part of an agreement with prosecutors. The youngest of her victims was 15 years old.
She was arrested in May 2008 after police received an anonymous tip.
Holmes lives in Cuba with her husband and four children, but the alleged actions with young boys took place in the county, outside the city limits, placing it under the Sheriff’s Department jurisdiction.
