NORTHAMPTON — A Greenfield woman denied allegations in court Wednesday that she engaged in sexual intercourse with a 15-year-old sophomore at Greenfield High School.
Stephanie M. Duclos, 38, of 166 Chapman St., Greenfield, pleaded innocent Wednesday in Northampton District Court to two counts of statutory rape of a child.
According to police, the alleged victim played on the same athletic teams as Duclos’ oldest child and had gone on several overnight trips with her to hotels for games. During those trips, Duclos reportedly made him feel uncomfortable with the way she dressed and interacted with him and got into a hot tub alone with him after one of the games, according to court documents.
In August, after having an argument with his mother’s boyfriend, the alleged victim reportedly left for a friend’s house on Chapman Street and was picked up by Duclos in her minivan around 11 p.m., according to court documents. The victim reportedly told police that Duclos took him to her house to stay the night and later had sex with him.
Judge Richard J. Carey ordered Duclos released on her own recognizance on the condition that she stay away from and have no contact with the victim or his family and have no unsupervised contact with children under 16. Duclos is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 4 for a probable cause hearing.
