According to the minor, he was playing in near a sand bank when he heard the woman calling him to the house of a man he knew as Herrera. The woman asked the boy to come in, thinking the woman wanted him to run an errand for her, as he was accustomed to doing so for neighbours in the area.

However, the woman had different intentions and according to the boy, performed oral sex on him in the living room of the house.

The boy heard his mother calling and told her what had just happened. The boy's mother attempted to attack the woman with a kitchen knife, neigbours hearing the commotion, called police.

Court testimony heard that Maria Moya was drunk at the time of sexual abuse.
