A MOTHER is facing a prison sentence after she was convicted of having sex with two teenage boys who helped her with her bouncy castle business.

Yvonne Renton, 39, wept as the jury of eight women and four men returned unanimous guilty verdicts on four charges of indecent assault and one of intimidation.

Renton, of Tufton Road, Rainham, had denied that anything sexual happened with the youths, who were aged 15 and 14 at the time.

The victims told Maidstone Crown Court that the blonde, then married to a nightclub bouncer performed a sex act on them and then had intercourse with them on separate occasions in 2002.

Judge Jeremy Carey told jurors: "This is a case you are unlikely to forget. It is not a pleasant task to return verdicts which have repercussions."

Sentence on Renton has been adjourned for a week in order for her to make arrangements for the care of her 11-year-old daughter. She was granted bail but the judge has warned that she should expect a jail sentence.
