Then in early 2018, D'Alessandro allegedly sent a Hallmark card to the victim with her phone number.
The two began texting, and in the weeks ahead she allegedly kissed and fondled the juvenile, showered her with gifts like a Pandora bracelet and professed her desire to have sex with the teenage girl.
According to the criminal complaint, the victim expressed her unease about the inappropriate relationship before it could escalate to sex.
The victim and her mom went to police. In January of 2021, D'Alessandro was charged with unlawful contact with a minor, indecent assault and other charges.
In May, she pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful contact with a minor.
