The mother of a Quebec woman jailed in the Bahamas for allegedly having sex with a teenage boy says her daughter dearly misses her three young children.
Karine Gagné, 23, is accused of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old American boy earlier this month.
Chantale Auclair says her daughter, whose children are 3, 4 and 5, was on a cruise ship when she met a young male who supposedly told her he was 18.
Auclair told The Canadian Press the two had a sexual encounter before the boy’s mother filed a complaint with police.
Auclair travelled to the Bahamas where she spoke with her daughter this week.
She said several questions remain unanswered, including how a teenager found himself in an area of the ship normally reserved for adults.
She is being detained pending her next court appearance on Feb. 3.
