Florida woman, 20, accused of sex with underage boy she met at a funeral

Ayla Gonzalez Salinas is facing multiple charges - (Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office)

A 20-year-old woman has been accused of having sex with an underage boy she met at a funeral.

Ayla Gonzalez Salinas was arrested on seven counts of lewd or lascivious battery of a victim after she allegedly engaged in sexual activity on multiple occasions with a boy aged between 12 and 16, according to a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office affidavit obtained by CBS12. The boy’s exact age was redacted in the report.

Salinas, from Florida, is accused of messaging the boy on social media after meeting him at a service last November.

The messaging led to the pair meeting up and having sexual contact in December, the sheriff’s office claims.

Authorities were alerted to the allegations in January and an investigation was launched.

The investigation found the pair exchanged text messages that discussed setting “their ‘story’ straight”, according to the affidavit.

The boy allegedly agreed to say he was the one who initiated sexual contact, the affidavit seen by CBS12 added.

Salinas was arrested on Monday, booked into the Palm Beach County Jail and then posted bond on Wednesday, reported Law & Crime.
