Palmer was originally charged with sexual battery of a minor, however she pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of felony injury to a child, will not have to register as a sex offender and may not have the felony charge on her record for long as prosecutors will not oppose Palmer’s request for a withheld judgment and are not seeking any prison time for her.

    Thanks for pointing out our the need for a correction regarding the guilty plea of Lauren K. Palmer.

    We have updated our report, replacing the information from the KTVB report with information from the Idaho Statesman report.

    One of the two reports is likely correct, we can not at this time say which is correct and which is in error. Therefore we will go with the Statesman version.

    Get the facts right before you destroy a person’s character. Ms Palmer did not plead guilty to any “sexual” charge. She may in fact be quilty of not setting appropriate boundaries in an attempt to help a troubled teen and ended up getting hurt herself in the end. Be sure to know the FACTS of the case before you print a story. Young lives are at stake. The police did not find the two in a car nor is there any evidence that any sexual act occured.
