A woman who pleaded guilty to having sex with the biological son
she gave up for adoption and later tracked down on the Internet has been sentenced nine years to 30 years in prison.
Aimee L. Sword, 36, of Waterford Township apologized at her sentencing Monday in Oakland County Circuit Court. She had pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree criminal sexual conduct in a deal with prosecutors.
Police say Sword used Facebook in 2008 to find her son, who’s now 16. She gave him up for adoption when he was only a few days old, the Detroit Free Press reported.
“When she saw this boy, something just touched off in her — and it wasn’t a mother-son relationship, it was a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship,” the newspaper quoted attorney Mitchell Ribitwer as saying. “Aimee’s searching for a reason why this happened. She can’t understand it. She’s going to get some counseling.”
The boy testified they had sex in Waterford Township and Grand Rapids when he was aged 14.

36-year-old Aimee L. Sword, Waterford, Michigan resident, apologized yesterday during her sentencing in Oakland County. She pleaded guilty of first-degree sexual misconduct after reaching an agreement with the prosecutors.
Sword used Facebook to track her son, now 16, in 2008. She has said they only had sex once, but the boy claims they had sex more than once including a Grand Rapids hotel and her home. During that timeSword was married and lived with her husband and five children of different ages.
“When she saw this boy, something just touched off in her—and it wasn’t a mother-son relationship, it was a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship,” said Sword’s
Sword recently wrote on her MySpace page that she was inspired by rapper and former prison inmate Lil' Kim because "she rises during the worst of obstacles." "Reminded me of myself," Sword wrote on the Web page, where she uses the name Aimee Pope.
She had originally been charged with three counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct. Sword was arraigned on April 24th and given a $1,000 bond for each criminal charge, but with the option of posting 10 percent for her release. Two of those charges were dropped last Wednesday when Sword declined to exercise her right to a preliminary examination during a hearing before Judge Sword Phyllis C. McMillen in 51st District Court in Waterford. Source: Oakland Press
Could someone please tell me why her bond was only $1,000? It is amazing that this dirtbag is also free on bond. Why? Clearly this is a miscarriage of justice and this woman's bond should have been denied. Had this been a man who was accused of the same crime, he would have been thrown in prison until his hearing.
UPDATE: Sword will face at least nine years behind bars for having sex with her son, according to the Detroit Free Press. This POS should be passed around like a soccer ball by her prisonmates. At the time of the incident, Sword was married and lived with her husband and five children who ranged from toddlers to teens.
