On Monday, a Sussex County, Delaware, Grand Jury indicted Molly Shattuck on nine counts: Two counts of third-degree rape, a Class B felony in Delaware; four counts of unlawful sexual contact, a Class F felony; and three counts of distributing alcohol to a minor, a misdemeanor.

Molly Shattuck turned herself in to the Sussex County Superior Court in Georgetown, Delaware, on Wednesday. She pleaded not guilty and posted $84,000 bail.

Molly Shattuck has also turned over her passport and she has been ordered to have no contact with any minors with the exception of her own children.

"This is a difficult situation for everyone involved. Thank you for your time," defense attorney Michelle Lipkowitz said.

Court affidavits obtained by the WBAL-TV 11 News I-Team say Molly Shattuck had sexual contact with a teenage boy.

Rarely has Molly Shattuck shied from publicity, not as the wife in a wealthy power couple or her distinction at one time as the National Football League's oldest cheerleader.

The 47-year-old mother of three is accused of performing oral sex on a boy no older than her own children.

The investigation of Molly Shattuck centers on a relationship she developed starting in May with a 15-year-old boy. She spotted the boy's pictures on Instagram and made sure he got her cellphone number, according to court affidavits the I-Team has reviewed.

Molly Shattuck and the boy started communicating before meeting in person, according to the documents. Their first alleged physical contact -- kissing and touching -- happened when Molly Shattuck met the boy in Columbia, then drove to a middle school parking lot in Mount Airy and got in the back seat of Molly Shattuck's car.

The documents say Molly Shattuck would pick the boy up from summer school and go park in an Owings Mills parking garage almost a half-dozen times in July.

Key to the investigation is what allegedly happened Labor Day weekend in Bethany Beach, Delaware, where Molly Shattuck, her kids and some of her kids' friends were staying in a rented beach house. The boy stayed over one night.

The documents say, "Sometime around 2 a.m. Sunday morning, they drove to a liquor store and (Molly) Shattuck purchased a 12-pack of Miller Lite and a 12-pack of Bud Light for them."

The younger kids were left home alone. Once back at the house, Molly Shattuck allegedly performed oral sex on the boy, first outside the home while walking the dog and again in her bedroom.

The documents say "(the boy) described the undergarments (Molly) Shattuck was wearing when he entered her bedroom."

The documents say she allegedly performed oral sex on the boy and told him "if he wanted to have sex she would. The boy opted out. He decided to leave. At that point, she told him to come back later but he did not go back."

The boy's father picked him up the next day and that was last the boy saw Molly Shattuck.

Investigators have executed a search warrant at Molly Shattuck's $2.5 million home in Roland Park. As part of the criminal investigation, investigators were looking for, among other things, Molly Shattuck's cellphone and pink underwear.

McDonogh School Headmaster Charles Britton sent an e-mail to the campus community, saying that Molly Shattuck has been banned from entering the campus and that additional security measures have been put in place "to assure the safety of the students since the incident was reported."

Britton said he received information on Sept. 24 regarding alleged inappropriate behavior involving a parent and a student, which was passed on to Baltimore County police.

"School counselors, faculty and staff are cognizant of the potential impact the news may have on our students and we are prepared to support them," Britton said.

While Shattuck has only been charged with crimes in Delaware, some of the allegations involve inappropriate behavior closer to home. Howard County police told 11 News they are cooperating with police in Delaware but have not opened their own investigation.

Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger also released a statement Wednesday, saying his office is deferring prosecution at this time but should more facts arise or circumstances change, he may revisit his decision.

The issue of child sex abuse often raises a number of questions, including how to respond to questionable conduct.

"Seeing an unnaturally close relationship between an adult and a child that's not that adult's child, we need to be able to intercede there and to be able to say, 'Is this appropriate?  Is everything OK?'" said Adam Rosenberg, of the Baltimore Child Abuse Center.

Molly Shattuck has often been the center of attention as the younger woman who married Mayo Shattuck in 1997. The two are now separated and going through a divorce.

She's known as the oldest woman to perform as an NFL cheerleader, having made the Baltimore Ravens squad in 2005. She's also known as a philanthropist and as an author of "Vibrant Living," her recipe for good health.

In recent weeks, her website went down for maintenance.
