A disgraced small-town mayor sent several frantic texts to her family and the mother of a 16-year-old boy after she was allegedly caught raping the teen at a booze-fueled pool party, according to a report.
Misty Roberts, the 43-year-old former leader of DeRidder, La., texted her ex-husband Duncan Clanton after her own son allegedly caught her committing the disturbing sex crime at a 2024 party, according to a criminal complaint obtained by The Daily Mail.
“I need to talk to you,” Roberts texted Clanton, according to the court papers. “I just need to tell you in person.”
“I f—ked up. And I respect you enough to tell you. And I need to,” Roberts said.
Clanton’s replies were omitted from the court papers, which also revealed that the teen victim’s mother texted Roberts — asking the former mayor whether she could be pregnant, the documents revealed.
“Out of respect for both our families, can you assure me that you can’t be pregnant?” the 16-year-old boy’s mother asked Roberts.
“Yes” Roberts replied.
“So no protection? Are you on birth control, have you had tubal, hysterectomy??” the mother pressed.
Roberts replied that she was on “birth control,” but that the romp “didn’t reach that point in those few minutes to have that concern.”
“I understand the concern. But, I can assure you of that,” she continued.
Jurors at Robert’s trial for third-degree rape heard that a local DoorDash driver had delivered emergency Plan B contraception to her home in 2024 — possibly in connection with the alleged 2024 tryst, the outlet reported.
