According to investigators, the 14-year-old boy was in a youth group led by DeHart that included overnight trips &#8230; &#8220;I think he&#8217;s mature enough to marry me,&#8221; she said. And if he wanted to, she said she would do it. &#8220;Even though he&#8217;s a teenager, he&#8217;s always looking out for me. &#8230; Anyone could fall for that person. He&#8217;s very strong.&#8221; &#8230; DeHart doesn&#8217;t think she&#8217;s broken the law. It was not a crime, she explained, but a romance. &#8220;It&#8217;s more like Romeo and Juliet,&#8221; she said, &#8220;two people who can&#8217;t be together because of how society views them. &#8220;I really believe in my innocence.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/a>Earlier <a href=\"..\/Blogfiles\/2003_02_02_WeekArchive.php#88609687\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Female church leader, 32, sleeps with 14-year-old boy on youth trips after they met at a church meeting.
