A former Texas cop has been sentenced to 20 years in prison after admitting to having sex with two teenagers — including a 15-year-old boy she took to a church parking lot, court documents show.
Delia Ruiz, 31, was “a police officer with the Friona Police Department” throughout the offenses — which ended before she got to have sex with a third teen whom she had also been grooming with X-rated naked snaps, she admitted in court documents.
She started having sex with the first boy in November 2020, when he was 16, carrying on until the following spring, the documents said.
The active cop then met the 15-year-old boy at her first victim’s house, grooming him with flirty messages sent via Facebook, the papers said.
She finally took the younger boy to a church parking lot for sex — where they would openly chat about him being in high school, she admitted
