FARMINGTON -- A woman who had sex with teenage boys was sentenced to a year in jail. Kimberlee Arigot, 41, came to court Wednesday prepared for possible jail time but was hoping for home confinement. The judge ordered her to a year in jail.
Arigot engaged in sexual activity with three teenage boys. Syracuse police initially started investigating Arigot because they believed she sent nude pictures to one teen.
She was arrested last November. When they interviewed her, she gave them more information about sex acts with a 15-year-old and two 17-year-old boys. Police have said the victims were either her daughter's friends or neighborhood boys.
Both the prosecutor and defense attorney seemed pleased with the outcome.
Deputy Davis County Attorney Richard Larsen said, "In speaking with the victims, they're pleased. This was the outcome they were hoping for. They're pleased with the outcome."
"Honestly, I think it was a fair sentence," said defense attorney Ryan Bushell. "That's what we'd come in prepared for. We knew there would be some jail time."
Arigot's defense attorney said she was remorseful for what happened. He said she was going through a tough time in her life and acted inappropriately.
He said, "She was getting some attention, relished in that attention and obviously took it way too far. And when these young men approached her about doing things, it set her off and, unfortunately, acted on them."
In addition to the year in jail Arigot will serve 36 month probation, and in 90 days, she'll qualify for work release from jail.
