The victims were members of a youth hockey team from Colorado, visiting Minnesota for a tournament, and staying at a hotel in Roseville, a suburb of Minneapolis.
Schardin allegedly confessed to engaging in sexual contact with two of the boys and requesting a condom from them after her arrest.
According to the charges, on January 14, the mother of two met the members of the young hockey team in the hotel’s hot tub.
She discussed her “marital problems” with the teenagers and then texted one of the guys on Snapchat.
Schardin allegedly texted one of the three boys after they had gone back to their rooms, claiming that she and her husband had gotten into a fight and asked if she could visit the teenagers’ room.
She finally began chatting about “sex and stuff,” asked the boy about their level of sexual activity, and ended up getting into bed with two boys, according to Pioneer Press.
Dangerous Liaisons
According to reports, the 38-year-old mother admitted to kissing and having sex with two of the boys. She also requested a condom from them. Investigators were told by the two youngsters that they felt uncomfortable and under pressure, so they asked Schardin to leave the room.

Prosecutors pushed for the maximum sentence, arguing that Schardin had deliberately sought out the boys with the intention of engaging in sexual activity.
“The defendant’s behavior was not a momentary lapse in judgment. It was clearly planned. Why else would an adult exchange contact information with juveniles that she just met in a hotel and then later go to their room?” prosecutors wrote in the filing ahead of sentencing.
The filing urged the court to “treat the defendant’s behavior as being no less serious than if the defendant were a man and the victims were girls. If the genders were reversed, there are few who would believe that leniency is appropriate.”
Schardin, a server at a local restaurant, describes herself as “a wife, truth seeker, boy mom, singer, and foodie” on her social media profile. Her Facebook page shows an older photo of her smiling with her sons, aged 8 and 12, in pictures posted shortly after the reported incident of alleged sexual abuse last month.
