13-Year-Old Boy Shot His Mother Dead After Trying To Rape Her!

Police continue to look for a possible motive in
the shooting death of Gretchen Crooks, allegedly
by her 13-year-old son Noah.
Police responding to the Crooks home, in Osage,
Iowa, on Saturday night, found the woman shot
multiple times after her teenage son - the alleged
shooter - called 911.
'We're at a loss. These are good people,' sheriff
Curt Younker said.

There was no history of domestic abuse or criminal
records associated with any Crooks family members.
The 13-year-old boy who allegedly shot his 37-
year-old mother dead with a hunting rifle is also
facing 'unheard of' charges that he tried to
sexually abuse her.
Now, authorities are saying Noah Crooks also tried
to sexually abuse his mother, which mental health
professionals say they have never encountered
among juveniles

Charges filed today in Mitchell County District
Court further accuse Noah Crooks, an eighth-grader
at Osage Middle School, of assault with attempt to
commit sexual abuse against his mother.
Shelia Aukes, a licensed social worker in Des
Moines who works with young people on a variety of
mental health issues told the DesMoines Register:
'The victims in most sex offenses committed by
juveniles are siblings, other juveniles or, more
rare, other adults.
'A child or adolescent sexually abusing a parent
is completely out of the norm, totally unheard
of.'
