A California mom accused of throwing drunken sex parties for teens at her multi-million dollar house was jumped by five inmates in a jail dorm room last fall.
Shannon O’Connor, who is awaiting trial on 39 counts, including child endangerment and child molestation, was taken to a hospital for treatment for injuries to her face and head, according to KTVU.
The attack, captured on surveillance video in October, lasted for about 16 seconds before deputies broke up the fight.
O’Connor was arrested in late 2021 and accused of hosting wild, alcohol-fueled parties for young teens, most between 13 and 15, at her Los Gatos home, often encouraging them to have sex while she watched, as CrimeOnline previously reported.
She is being held without bond after prosecutors argued that she posed a threat to further harm children if released and that she was a flight risk, KTVU said. When California authorities began investigating her, she fled to Idaho, where she is also now under investigating for similar parties after authorities found 12 teens at her home when they served the arrest warrant.
