Long Branch Woman Admits To Sex Assault Of Toddler Girl

LONG BRANCH, NJ — A Long Branch woman pleaded guilty Friday afternoon to charges she planned, participated in and filmed the sexual assault of a toddler in 2017, announced the office of Monmouth County Prosecutor Chris Grammiccioni.

Police say the woman, Olga Diaz, 34, of Long Branch, and a Bloomfield man, Jaime Mauricio Leon, 34, planned the sexual assault ahead of time.

Diaze pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree aggravated sexual assault and one
count of endangering the welfare of a child.

Diaz admitted she and Leon discussed the sexual attack on the child, a girl, beforehand via text messages. She also admitted she took nude photographs of the toddler girl on June 15, 2017 and a separate video of herself sexually assaulting the child on June 16, 2017 and sent those materials to Leon.

Leon later traveled to Long Branch where he and Diaz sexually assaulted the little girl together.

The child appeared to be asleep at the time of the sex assault, but police say Diaz provided her with sleeping medication in order to facilitate the sexual assault.

They were observed through a window by a passerby who reported the assault to the police. The citizen provided police with evidence of Diaz and Leon committing various sexual acts upon the toddler while engaging in sexual acts with each other.

The text messages, images and video the pair shared were recovered by police.

Diaz faces 10 years in a New Jersey state prison, subject to an 85 percent period of parole ineligibility.
