— A 45-year-old woman has been charged with providing marijuana and alcohol to her 20-year-old daughter and a 14-year-old boy her daughter is accused of sexually assaulting.
Kimmy Bouchard, of West Main Street, didn't smoke marijuana with her daughter and the boy, but was present when they smoked and she supplied them with Mike's Hard Lemonade and Twisted Tea, according to an arrest warrant.
She was also aware that the boy and her daughter, Loni Bouchard, who turned 20 in July, were involved in a sexual relationship, the warrant says.
Among the evidence seized by police from the Bouchard home, including computers and cellphones, is a picture of Bouchard at a table with a pipe, a pile of marijuana and a pile of marijuana stems, the warrant says.
She was charged Monday with two counts of risk of injury to a minor, permitting a minor to possess alcohol, and distribution of marijuana.
Bouchard posted $15,000 bail after her arraignment at Superior Court in Middletown on Monday and was released. She was ordered not to have any contact with the 14-year-old boy or his family. She is scheduled to return to court Sept. 12.
She declined to speak with a reporter.
The boy's mother told police that she hired Loni Bouchard in December to baby-sit her children at her home in Southington and often allowed her to spend the night because Loni Bouchard said she had problems at home, an arrest warrant says.
In April, the mother learned that Loni Bouchard and her 14-year-old son were in a sexual relationship and sought a restraining order, according to the warrant.
She said she became concerned after reading Bouchard's Facebook page, where Bouchard wrote "why age does matter" and "people don't understand." The mother believed the comments referred to her son and investigated further by looking through his Facebook account.
There, she found intimate messages between her son and Bouchard, according to the warrant. She looked at her son's cellphone and found text messages from Loni Bouchard's 18-year-old sister, Tenay, asking him if he wanted Kimmy Bouchard to buy him anything from the liquor store, the warrant says.
In a text message to a friend, the boy said he obtained marijuana for free from Kimmy Bouchard, the warrant states.
The boy told his mother, after she confronted him, that he had been in a relationship with Loni Bouchard since January and that they had sex at Bouchard's home in Clinton. He also told her that Loni and Kimmy Bouchard had given him alcohol and marijuana.
The boy told police that he had smoked marijuana at the Bouchard home more than 10 times, but fewer than 20. He said he told Loni Bouchard how old he was the first time she baby-sat for him at his house, the warrant states.
When interviewed by police, according to the warrant, Loni Bouchard admitted to the relationship and also said that previously she had been involved with another underage boy, also from Southington.
She denied that her mother supplied the marijuana and alcohol. She also said her parents were not aware of her relationship with the boy.
Kimmy Bouchard said that her daughter and the 14-year-old slept on separate couches whenever he spent the night and that she was not aware of their relationship until the boy's mother filed a restraining order. She also denied purchasing alcohol for the boy, the warrant states.
Both Kimmy and Loni Bouchard told police that the marijuana might have belonged to Loni's sister, Tenay.
Loni Bouchard is facing sexual assault charges in both Southington and Clinton. Her cases are pending in Superior Court in Middletown, where she is scheduled to appear Sept. 12.
