The judge also ordered a mental competency evaluation last month for LaQuita L. Ross, requested by her defense attorney, court records show.

Ross, who worked for Moonlight Security, is accused of performing sex acts March 19 with five boys, ages 12 to 15, inside a van in an alley behind the city of Dayton facility while she was working, according to court documents.

The Dayton woman is charged with two counts of rape of a child younger than 13 and four counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor.
