The California “Party Mom” who allegedly plied teens with booze and then watched them participate in lewd sex acts at her mansion kept her young victims virtually captive, one of her accusers testified this week.
“There was no escape,” said the witness, referred to only as “Jane Doe 7” in court in San Jose, on Tuesday.
The teen said she was dating the son of 50-year-old alleged sicko parent Shannon O’Connor when the kids were both 14 and attending the binge-drinking parties at the mom’s $4 million home in 2020, KRON reported.
O’Connor is on trial for allegedly throwing the booze and sex-fueled gatherings for Los Gatos High School freshmen, supplying them with copious amounts of alcohol and watching them perform sex acts for her own gratification.
After O’Connor found out that the witness had dumped her son and texted another boy, the mom allegedly confronted the girl and sinisterly said, “We know what you did,” KRON reported.
“It was harder to escape from her than her son,” the witness testified. “She knew my every move. When I started to move on, I was shamed for it.”
The girl said she went to the party palace because she felt isolated during the 2020 pandemic lockdown.
“I felt like I had nobody. I was lonely,” the teen testified.
On one wild night away from the party mansion, the teen was with O’Connor in the mom’s SUV as it was parked near a post office when police approached the vehicle, she said.
There “empty cans everywhere” in the car, she testified.
O’Connor calmly told her to throw a duffle bag containing 30 full cans of beer and the empty cans into the trunk, the teen said.
“She was horrifically calm in this scenario,” the girl said.
The cops spoke to O’Connor and then took off, the teen said.
Other parents eventually got wind of the shenanigans when their kids came home drunk.
“My mom was very angry, she texted Shannon,” the teen testified.
O’Connor has pleaded not guilty to charges including child molestation, furnishing alcohol to minors and endangering or injuring the health of a child. She is facing 63 felony and misdemeanor charges.
