A married mum has been accused of having sex with her two teenage daughters’ underage boyfriends.
It’s not really something you should have to worry about when bringing your partner home to meet the parents, is it?
41-year-old Coral Lytle was arrested for having sex with the two teenage boys, who are both freshman in high school, in late 2017. The Tulare County District Attorney’s Office charged her with 21 felony sex counts.

The mum appeared in Tulare County court in Visalia, California, on Monday (April 15), where prosecutors claimed she provided the two underage boys with cigars and alcohol, and that she would drive from her home in Tulare to Visalia to meet them for sex, ABC13 report.
In court documents, a Tulare County Deputy District Attorney shed light on the 41-year-old’s alleged relationship with the boys, writing:
The crimes in this case committed by the defendant involved great cruelty and callousness especially considering the defendant took advantage of a position of trust to molest two boys who she met when they (were in) teenage dating relationships with the defendant’s daughters.
One of the alleged victims said he had sex with Lytle three times, the last of which was on October 5, 2017.
The documents explain:
[Victim] stated this was the last time he had sex with defendant because he felt bad shaking defendant’s husband’s hand knowing what he was doing with defendant.
Lytle was given an indicated sentence of five years of probation with a six-year suspended prison term, however by the time the case was called the judge said he not ready to sentence Lytle.
After reviewing the probation report, the Tulare County judge said he didn’t believe the indicated sentence was appropriate.
He chose not to sentence Lytle on Monday, giving the mother the option to withdraw her earlier guilty plea. A trial setting hearing will take place next Monday, April 22.
According to ABC13, Tulare County Assistant District Attorney David Alavezos explained:
Most of the time, when a court makes an indicated sentence, the probation report will follow the indicated sentence. There are times the probation report will recommend a sentence that is not what was indicated.
Records show that the accused woman’s husband filed for divorce within days of her arrest; that case is still ongoing.
