GOLDEN - An Arvada mother has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for hosting sex-and-alcohol parties for teenagers.
Silvia Johnson, 41, pleaded guilty earlier this year to two counts of sexual assault, and nine counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Prosecutors say Johnson held parties at her home and gave teens alcohol, marijuana and methamphetamine. She also had sex with some of the boys.
Several parents of the teenage boys that Johnson assaulted were in court to testify Monday. The prosecution described her as perverse and a manipulator.
But a defense expert pointed to Johnson's history of mental problems and said that she is bi-polar.
Johnson cried during much of the proceeding and held her head in her hands.
She was to have been sentenced September 26th, but that hearing had to be postponed after a serious traffic accident a day earlier.
Johnson and three children were hurt when the SUV they were riding in rolled down an embankment along Interstate 25.
A 14-year-old girl was behind the wheel, and one of the other children inside was Johnson's son.
Johnson was hospitalized after the crash. Once released, she was returned to the Jefferson County Detention Facility.
Johnson admitted inviting underage students to her home for the parties because she wanted her daughter's friends to think of her as a "cool mom."
She faces additional charges in connection with the SUV crash.
In an interview police taped after the first arrest, Johnson talks about why she hosted the teenage parties. "I fell in love with being a part of the group in a way," she said. "Because that was never something (inaudible), never something I was a part of growing up. I was never in the popular group.
I was never "this" - never "cool" - never any of this kind of stuff. Where here I was always considered "cool" - the "cool" mom, you know."
EDIT*** WTF!!! dude you were 17, you knew exactly what you were doing.
