A 32-year-old mother who had sex with her 16-year-old son claimed that it was “genetic attraction” and not incest! She has been given 5 years in prison for this incident. Click below to read how they got caught and the rest of the details.
The California mom who slept with her estranged teen son says she didn’t commit incest – it was “genetic attraction.”
Mistie Rebecca Atkinson, 32, was sentenced to four years and eight months in prison on Wednesday in Napa County Superior Court, according to the Napa Valley Register.
In May, Atkinson, of Lake County, Calif., pleaded no contest to incest, oral copulation, lewd contact with a minor and distribution of lewd material to a minor, the newspaper reports.
But in a letter to the court, Atkinson said she doesn’t consider what she did as incest.
“I don’t feel like I should have the charge of incest because there is something called genetic attraction that is a very powerful (phenomenon) that happens to 50 (percent) of people becoming reunited with a long-lost relative,” she wrote.
Atkinson, who had been estranged from her son nearly his entire life, was reunited with the teen last year, when she tracked him down on Facebook, a law enforcement source told the Daily News.
She reportedly sent her then 16-year-old son multiple inappropriate messages and nude photos.
Police arrested Atkinson, when they found the pair in a hotel room in April, after the boy’s family learned about the relationship and contacted authorities.
Last month, ABC’s “Good Morning America” ran a segment about genetic sexual attraction (GSA), the alleged phenomenon Atkinson may have been referencing in her note.
While little research has been done on the theory, some psychologists say that biological family members who are separated for long periods of time risk becoming sexually attracted to each other when they reunite.
What? This sounds familiar to something that happened in the Old Testament where Tamar had her brother sexually force himself on her. And he was not dehumanized as a animal by having his hands bound together in fetters called cuffs and afterwards being caged in a hellish prison. So unlike today where most people are treated as animals for this Tamar’s brother was not.
This sounds really weird.
We love it when we tempt people to commit the sin of incest. We even love it when we can tempt Christians to criminalize compliments, yelling with name calling and being sworn at along with making threats so that these things become crimes. We even make people commit the sin of having sexual intercourse against their will.
God forgives people who commit the sin of incest. He can. No one has to go to hell for this sin.
