Daughter, mother held for sex with teen

THE daughter of a county supervisor in Arizona has been arrested on suspicion of sexual misconduct with the same teenage boy that her mother is accused of sexually abusing over a three-year period, according to US police.

Rachel Katherine Brock, 21, was arrested on Wednesday on three counts of sexual conduct with a minor and one count of transmitting obscene material as part of an ongoing investigation surrounding her mother, 48-year-old Susan Brock.

In Rachel Brock's initial court appearance, acting attorney John Rock argued that the judge should free her on bond because there appeared to be no physical evidence to support any of the charges. Rock said the teen would have been asked if he had been a victim of any other sexual abuse when Susan Brock was arrested in October.

"It appears that he's given contradictory information," Rock said. But the judge wasn't persuaded.

Rachel Brock is the daughter of Maricopa County Supervisor Fulton Brock, and Susan Brock is his wife of 28 years. The family lived together in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler, but Fulton Brock filed for divorce after his wife's arrest.

Rachel Brock is accused of committing sex acts with the teenage boy between February 2007 and August 2008, and sending him nude photos and a video of herself masturbating; none involved intercourse. The boy was 14 at the time, and Rachel Brock was 18, classifying the crimes as dangerous crimes against children.

Police said that between August 2007 and October 2010, the teen met Susan Brock for sexual trysts. Susan Brock reportedly provided the boy with cell phones, and police seized text messages reportedly recording sexual exchanges between the two.

Police said it appears that Susan and Rachel Brock didn't know about each other's relationship with the teen.

A third woman, Christian Hart Weems, was arrested in the case on Tuesday on suspicion of obstructing a criminal investigation and conspiracy to commit computer tampering. She is accused of deleting potentially incriminating e-mails between the boy and Susan Brock.
