Dayton, Ohio — A woman accused of celebrating her 55th birthday by having sex with a 12-year-old boy pleaded guilty to one count of gross sexual imposition of a person under age 13 on Friday, Oct. 23.

Gloria J. Murphy, (pictured left) of 5440 Rawlings Drive, appeared before Montgomery County Common Pleas Judge Mary Katherine Huffman, who set sentencing for Dec. 2.

The charge is a third-degree felony, punishable by up to five years in prison.

Murphy, who uses a walker and an oxygen tube, appeared frail.

“I’m getting shook,” she said in a gravelly voice when she was confused by some of Huffman’s questions.

Murphy will be designated a Tier 2 sex offender. Her other charge, rape of a child under age 13, was dropped under the plea agreement. There is no agreement on sentencing. Assistant county prosecutor Joshua Muennich told Huffman that the victim’s family had approved the plea agreement.

Rape of a child under 13, a first-degree felony, is punishable by up to 10 years to life in prison.

“This defendant took advantage of a neighborhood child by providing him alcohol and having sex with him,” Montgomery County Prosecutor Mathias H. Heck, Jr. said after Murphy was indicted in February. “

Dayton police arrested Murphy at 8 a.m. on Jan. 30 after the boy notified an adult he had sex with Murphy, according to police.

The encounter happened late Jan. 28 — Murphy’s birthday — and lasted into the early hours the next day, according to Dayton police. Murphy did not force the boy to have sex, but since he is younger than 13, it is considered rape, police said.
