A 36-year-old mother of two teenage girls has been given a suspended jail term for having sex with a 15-year-old boy.

The woman admitted to taking part in sexual activity with the boy in June last year.

Magistrate Jacqueline Padovani jailed the woman for two years suspended for four. She also placed her under a supervision order for three years and placed the minor under a protection order for three years.

The magistrate took into consideration the fact that the accused was a first time offender, had pleaded guilty at an early stage and was a single mother of two teenage daughters.

The court banned publication names.
