TEXARKANA, Texas — A DeKalb, Texas, woman is facing a charge of aggravated sexual assault involving a 12-year-old girl.

Angel Sunshine Chavez, 25, was arrested on the charge by the Bowie County Sheriff's Office in mid-November, according to Bowie County court records. She was released on a $100,000 bond Nov. 27.

A relative of the girl contacted BCSO in October and arrangements were made for her to be interviewed at the Children's Advocacy Center.

The girl allegedly told the interviewer that she spent time with Chavez in the summer of 2019 and the two of them became "closer to one another," according to an affidavit.

Chavez allegedly kissed the girl, showered with the girl and performed a sexual act on the girl, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Chavez faces five to 99 years or life if convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child. She is scheduled to appear next week before 202nd District Judge John Tidwell for a pre-indictment hearing. Her case has not yet been presented to a grand jury for formal indictment.
