The so-called 'Party Mom' who stands accused of giving booze to minors and having sex with teenage boys was arraigned at the Stanislaus County Courthouse Tuesday afternoon.
Anna J. Walker-Vogt of Grayson was charged with two counts of unlawful sex with a minor and 12 counts of child endangerment, all felonies, as well as six misdemeanor charges of contributing to the delinquency of a minor -- all stemming from a recent party at her home. But now, she faces two more counts of unlawful sex with two other minors during a party at her home a few weeks ago.
Stanislaus County authorities would not immediately say where or when the acts allegedly occurred, or whether the sex charges alleged two acts with one youth or if she had sex with more than one teenager.
Walker-Vogt is accused of buying alcohol for a group of Patterson teens after a high school basketball game on Jan. 19. The occasion was a party at her home to celebrate the return of her 16-year-old son, who had been in Oklahoma.
She allegedly told the teens they would have to leave before 3 a.m. because her husband, David Walker, an Atwater police officer, was due home from work.
Authorities say she paid one boy $50 to drive 11 other teens home in his sport utility vehicle. He crashed four miles away, injuring everyone in the vehicle.
The felony endangerment counts stem from Walker-Vogt's decision to let the teens drive home, while the delinquency counts allege she bought alcohol for the youths, said Sheriff's deputy Royjindar Singh.
Some of the parents are considering suing Walker-Vogt. One of the crash victims fractured his skull and a woman passenger had spinal injuries, parents said, while the others were hurt less seriously.
Robert Garcia, the 18-year-old who crashed while ferrying the other teens, is charged with felony drunken driving.
