Baltimore socialite and former Ravens cheerleader Molly Shattuck
pleaded guilty to statutory rape Tuesday, admitting in a few brief words
to an affair with a 15-year-old boy, a plea that leaves her branded as a
felon and a sex offender.
Shattuck, 48, the former wife of the current chairman of energy
provider Exelon, was accused in November of having a relationship with
one of her son’s classmates, including performing oral sex on him in a
rented vacation house in Bethany Beach. hattuck’s son allegedly
forwarded his mother’s cell phone number to the boy, saying: ‘You should
text my Mom, she is obsessed with you’
The 47-year-old and 15-year-old boy ‘met for make-out sessions in her Cadillac Escalade’
She allegedly performed oral sex on him at least twice over the Labor Day weekend after first plying him with beer.
She has been indicted on two counts of third-degree rape, four
counts of unlawful sexual contact and three counts of providing alcohol
to minors.
As part of the plea, Shattuck agreed to forgo any unsupervised
contact with children, except her own, and to have DNA and HIV tests as
well as a mental health evaluation that will include “sexual disorder
counseling.”
The affair began in May 2014, when Shattuck began a flirtation
with the boy,a McDonogh School student, on the social networking site
Instagram, according to an affidavit for a search warrant filed in
Baltimore County District Court.
Between their encounters, Shattuck
asked for pictures via text message’ and he would send pictures of
himself shirtless and one in his underwear, the victim told police.
For Labor Day weekend Shattuck took
her children and some of their friends – including the victim – to stay
at a rented beach house in Bethany Beach.
‘Sometime around 2am on Sunday
morning, they drove to a liquor store and (Molly) Shattuck purchased a
12-pack of Miller Lite and a 12-pack of Bud Light for them,’ state the
court documents.
Once back at the house, Shattuck is
alleged to have performed oral sex on the boy at least twice – first
outside the home while walking the dog and then again in her bedroom.
The documents state ‘(the boy) described the undergarments (Molly) Shattuck was wearing when he entered her bedroom.’
Shattuck is alleged to have told the
boy ‘if he wanted to have sex she would. The boy opted out. He decided
to leave. At that point, she told him to come back later but he did not
go back.’
Just months before, Shattuck had sat for a Baltimore Sun
interview that showed her confidently working through her separation
with her husband and forging a new, independent identity. But the sexual
abuse allegations left Shattuck’s carefully crafted image as a devoted
mother and charity worker in tatters.
Her billionaire husband, Mayo Shattuck, was granted a divorce from her in November.
The Shattucks’ divorce, which ended a 17-year marriage, was
finalized days after a nine-count indictment against her was unsealed in
November. Custody arrangements for their three children have not been
publicized, but Modica said her ex-husband could use the rape conviction
as ammunition in any dispute.
