How California Party Mom Courted Kids With Snapchat, Tahoe Trip, Drunken Parties
The California woman charged with hosting sex parties and helping her son (and his friends) rape drunk girls was in court last week, and there are interviews with parents of the teens she abused:
“She’s really good with the phones. She’s a pro with social media,” said one girl’s mother. “She tries to put a wedge between the parents and children. She’s a predator.”
When O’Connor said she was having a Halloween party for her son and his friends at her home last Oct. 30, the only real concern of one boy’s parents was COVID-19, but “she assured us it was all going to be outside, they’d be playing ping pong, basketball,” the boy’s father said.
When they picked up their 14-year-old son later that night, he was standing at the end of O’Connor’s driveway, barefoot, wet and cold. He told them he just didn’t want to trouble them with driving all the way up to the house. When they got home, he vomited and they smelled alcohol.
While their son slept off the bender, they noticed his smartphone light up with Snapchat messages among O’Connor and other teens. Her username, the dad said, was “Nun.” It became clear, the father said, she’d arranged for them to have a drinking party at the house while she went out with her husband:
“how did it all go,” nun messaged.
“Thank you Shannon!” one boy replied.
There were references to drinking, sex, a girl throwing up on the bathroom floor and passing out and a boy’s parents finding out he was drunk and asking questions. Her only concern seemed to be other parents’ questions: “do ur parents knkw”
