A Washington Township woman is accused of sexually assaulting a teen boy for several months this year, according to a news release from Pennsylvania State Police.

Jessica Lynn Harmon, 37, faces charges of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, corruption of minors and indecent assault.

She was arraigned on the charges Wednesday before District Judge Richard T. Thomas and was then released on $25,000 unsecured bail, according to online court dockets.

Harmon could not be reached for comment Wednesday. She has a preliminary hearing scheduled for Sept. 18 before Thomas, dockets indicate.

According to state police, the 15-year-old male told police that he had a "consensual sexual relationship" with Harmon. Police say the alleged crimes occurred from April 1 to August 1.

Harmon then confirmed during an interview she had sexual contact with the boy, police said.

Although the teen described his contact with Harmon as "consensual," the Pennsylvania Crimes Code for the charge of indecent assault calls such contact a crime, when "the complainant is less than 16 years of age and the person (defendant) is four or more years older than the complainant and the complainant and the person are not married to each other."
