OAK PARK, Calif. (KABC) -- A Ventura County woman is now facing felony charges for allegedly sexually assaulting two 14-year-old boys on multiple occasions, prosecutors announced.

Utz was arrested on Oct. 9 and booked at the Pre-Trial Detention Facility but was later released from custody after posting $20,000 bail, authorities said.
Her arrest came after a patrol deputy with the Ventura County Sheriff's Office followed up on a rumor that a 14-year-old boy was sexually assaulted last month, according to a news release from sheriff's officials.
Authorities said an investigation led to the discovery of a second 14-year-old victim, and that there were numerous calls to Utz's home for "juvenile disturbances, found runaways, juveniles in possession of and smoking marijuana, high school age parties, alcohol being given to minors and reckless driving."
