‘Putting it bluntly madam, you are sex mad,’ judge tells woman jailed for group sex with underage boys

A married mother-of-three who had sex with three underage boys has been branded a “dreadful mother” by a judge, a court heard yesterday.

Sentencing Amanda Tompkins to seven years imprisonment, Judge Francis Sheridan told the 39-year-old: “putting it bluntly, madam, you are sex mad.”

“As simple as that – anything goes, doesn’t matter the age, doesn’t matter what stage of sobriety you were in.”

Tompkins, of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, was found guilty of 10 counts of physical and sexual abuse with six boys at her home whilst they were aged between 13 and 15 years old.

After engaging in sexual intercourse and oral sex with the boys, Tompkins, who was described as being a “highly sexual woman without boundaries”, told one of them she was pregnant with his child and needed to have an abortion.

Appearing for sentencing via video link from prison, the court heard how Tompkins would invite teenagers to drink alcohol and smoke cannabis in her home before engaging in “stripteases” and sex acts – some of which were performed whilst her youngest children were at home.

Passing sentence at Aylesbury Crown Court, Judge Sheridan said: “You pleaded guilty to a most dreadful catalogue of sexual offending against young boys.

“You ran an open house and for that, you should read you ran a home of abuse with you as the abuser – there’s no point in ducking it, no matter how drunk you were.

“You were prepared to abuse each of the boys for your own sexual gratification, you simply had a sexual drive that knew no ends. Nothing was enough.

“To your own children in your drunken state you were a dreadful mother, you sexually abused children while your own two youngest children were in the house.”

Judge Sheridan said that Tompkins had flirted with her victims in a “predatory and highly sexualised way”, adding that her actions were “outrageous” and had a “devastating” impact on their lives.

“Your definition of an adult is far away from the legal definition, one of your victims was just days away from his 14th birthday,” he added.

“I watched you in this case, I saw no tears in your eyes. You are a disgrace as a mother and I do not hesitate to say that.”

Prosecuting, Kim Peston described how the defendant had treated her home like a “party house”, where the consumption of alcohol and cannabis was freely permitted in an “easy environment”.

She told the court how Tompkins had first abused two boys in February last year, adding that she had become “suggestive” and performed a “striptease” for them in her living room.

The court also heard how she had attempted to “cajole” two other young boys into having sexual intercourse with her on another occasion, and had used Facebook in an attempt to pressure another into engaging sexual activity.

Listening as impact statements from her victims were read to Judge Sheridan, Tompkins was seen shaking her head and rolling her eyes as the details of her crimes were laid bare.

She was jailed for seven years, placed on the Sex Offender Registry, and banned from having any contact with underage children for life.

Milton Keynes woman admits having ‘striptease sex’ with string of schoolboys

A married mum has been convicted after she had “striptease sex” with a string with a string of schoolboys in her home.

Amanda Tompkins, 39, is facing a lengthy jail sentence after admitting abusing seven underage boys over four months.

The perverted mother invited two groups of boys, who were all aged under 16, into her house in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, and stripping for them before having full sex.

She had been facing trial but admitted 10 counts of sexual and physical abuse at Aylesbury Crown Court today.

Casually dressed Tompkins was visibly distressed as she paused before she admitted each count before Judge Francis Sheridan.

She was remanded in custody just weeks before she was due to start a 10-day trial starting on February 20.

Unemployed Tompkins admitted seven counts of sexual activity with a child, one of attempted sexual activity with a child, one of attempting to sexually assault a child and one of attempting to engage in sexual activity with a child.

Her defence barrister, Peter De Feu, failed to convince the judge to grant her bail after the court heard she had sex with different groups of boys from February to May last year.

Tompkins twice invited three boys into her bedroom, where she would have full sex with them.

She also attempted to sexually assault another boy and had sex with one of the group alone in her living room on separate occasions in February.

Two months later she twice invited three other boys to her bedroom and had sex with them again on or around May 7. She also admitted trying to engage in sexual activity with one of the boys.

The charges of attempting to sexually assault and common assault against one of the boys, which she denied, were said to have happened on the same occasions but the disputed charges were ordered to lie on her file.

Prosecutor Kim Preston agreed to let one other count of sexually assaulting a boy in February to also remain lie on her file.

Tompkins was remanded in custody and will appear for sentencing before Judge Sheridan on March 31.
