Arkansas woman, posing as man, arrested for sexually assaulting Joplin teen

A 19-year-old Arkansas woman, was arrested by Fayetteville police for posing as a man, both in MySpace conversations and in person, and sexually assaulting a 13-year-old Joplin girl.

Alesha Mariah Carr is in jail in lieu of $10,000 bond. The Northwest Arkansas Times says a warrant for the woman's arrest had already been issued by the Jasper County Sheriff's Department:

On Oct. 5, Carr asked the 13-year-old to leave her home in Joplin, Mo., and meet her in Arkansas for sexual relations. Carr then went to Joplin and picked up the girl and took her to her residence in Fayetteville. Parks said the girl was assaulted during the visit. (Fayetteville Sgt. Shannon) Gabbard said Carr and the girl had sexual relations before this incident in Joplin and the girl's grandparents found out about the relationship and contacted the police. Carr portrayed herself as a man online and in person. Detectives discovered the online chats that occurred in Myspace.com accounts.
Detectives confiscated forensic evidence from the girl's computer, according to a police report.
