An Augusta-area mother of five has been sentenced to six years probation for smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol and playing a naked game of Twister with teens in her home in 2015, according to media reports.
Rachel Lynn Lehnardt, 35, of Evans, pleaded guilty in late June to six counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, a misdemeanor, The Augusta Chronicle reported. Lehnardt, who was sentenced under the Georgia First Offender Act, also was fined $600.
“I lost who I was and my respect,” Lehnardt said in court. “I’m sorry for all of my actions.”
Lehnardt prompted police to investigate the situation, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported. While meeting with her Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor, Lehnardt said she had recently lost custody of her children, ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 16, after hosting a party at her house.
When the 16-year-old texted her mom to ask if she could have friends over “to party,” Lehnardt replied, “come on, let’s party,” Lehnardt told her sponsor.
Lehnardt said she allowed the teens to smoke marijuana and drink alcohol in her home, according to the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office. The party-goers were allowed to play Twister while nude with Lehnardt, who left the game in order to have sex with an 18-year-old in a bathroom, a police report states. Lehnardt allegedly demonstrated various sex toys to the group, officials said.
The children now live in Missouri, Lehnardt’s attorney, Pete Theodocion, said in court.
