37-year-old Janice Marie Niccoli, “team mom” for a private youth league basketball team, was arrested in her Vacaville, CA home for having sex with a 16-year-old boy.
The alleged sexual encounters happened in Niccoli’s home in April and May. When rumors began spreading among the team, it eventually reached one the parents, who informed police.
Niccoli was charged with two felony counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor of more than 10 years age difference. She was booked into the Solano County jail, and released after posting bail.
Detectives say the investigation is ongoing as Niccoli’s access to young boys may reveal similar instances with other boys.
