NEW PORT RICHEY - A mother confronted a neighbor who allegedly raped her 7-year-old son, but accepted $600 to let the man molest her son again, authorities said.
Erin Lyon Caron, 30, of 6516 Jackson St., faces capital sexual battery and child abuse charges.
The sexual assaults happened the first two weeks of February, Lt. Jeffrey Harrington said.
The boy told his 11-year-old sister that Nicholas Quiles, of 6527 Jackson St., did "bad things to him," detectives said.
An anonymous tip led investigators to the neighbor and mother.
Caron was not present when the offenses occurred, according to an arrest affidavit, but was aware of a prior occurrence and provided an opportunity for Quiles, 48, to commit capital sexual battery again.
Caron is being held in lieu of $10,000 bail at the Land O' Lakes jail.
Quiles is being held without bail at the Pasco County jail on two counts of capital sexual battery.
"There are definitely oddities to this case," Harrington said. "I hope we never have to investigate anything like this again."
