Mom, 43, allegedly conceived child with her daughter’s 14-year-old date to junior high dance
A 43-year-old Illinois mother gave birth to a child she allegedly conceived with a 14-year-old boy — whom her own daughter took as a date to their junior high dance, according to authorities and reports.
Robyn Polston, who had chaperoned the dance, was arrested Monday morning and charged with two counts of criminal sexual assault with a victim between the ages of 13 and 17 and two counts of possession of child pornography, according to court records obtained by The Post.
She was arrested after the Washington Police Department began an investigation into a complaint received after Polston gave birth in January 2025, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by People.
After obtaining records, including the baby’s birth certificate, cops found that the child’s name matched the middle and last name of her alleged victim, the document said.
Polston claimed to cops that the newborn’s father was a “man in his twenties named Brian,” with whom she cut off contact after giving birth, the affidavit stated.
