A Minnesota mom who hooked up with two 15-year-old hockey players she met in a hotel hot tub has pleaded guilty.
Allison Schardin, 39, confessed to third-degree criminal sexual conduct on Friday. She had pleaded not guilty to the shocking allegations in May, Twin Cities media reports.
Schardin was on a “staycation” with her husband and two young children last January when she spotted the boys in the hotel hot tub. The Colorado teens were on the road with their hockey team and in town for a tournament.
She struck up a conversation with the young players as the trio soaked in the hot tub. Her husband noticed the interaction and wasn’t happy about it.
According to the criminal complaint, he yelled at her: “If you don’t come upstairs, our relationship is over.”
Schardin then exchanged contact information with the boys. Following a fight with her hubby in their room, she later texted one of them to see if she could come to his room. She had been complaining about her marital troubles in the hot tub and later in their room.
Later, Schardin joked with the players that they were young enough to be her children. Nonetheless, she pressured the pair into sexual acts while another teen watched.
One victim said the wayward mom told them: “You already have a 38-year-old woman, a female in your bed, don’t you want to do more.”
“(Victim 1) described feeling stuck in the moment and did not know how to say no,” the complaint said. “He said that in his head, his response was ‘not really’ but he responded by saying ‘sure,’ though he ‘wasn’t totally on board with it.’”
The next day, Schardin went to the rink where the boys were playing a tourney game.
“(Victim 1) said they all started getting nervous and he was shaking on the bench at one point because he wanted to leave what happened the night before in the past and she was trying to follow them, ‘it was really creepy,’” the complaint added.
After she showed up at the arena, Schardin reached out to the duo. Her message was simple: Don’t tell the cops.
Following her arrest, she admitted to detectives that she went to the teens’ hotel room and had relations with two of them. While confessing to sexual contact, she said there was no intercourse because no one had a condom.
“I think I just, things were starting to progress and, um, I think I thought about it for a moment and then I just was like, yeah, no, that’s not …, and I think at that point it was pretty evident that V1 was kind of uncomfortable,” the complaint said.
Now that the wayward mom has pleaded guilty (one of the criminal complaints was tossed), she will serve no more than eight months in jail and register as a predatory sex offender.
She will be sentenced in January.
