Patricia Jean Dye, 31

In a gender-bending sex case, a Warren County woman is accused of posing as a teen boy so she could have sex with a teen girl.

Patricia Jean Dye, 31, of Franklin, is being held in the Butler County Jail on charges of corruption of a minor, importuning and three counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

"She was pretending to be a young male – a teenage male – and in doing so, she arranged for and had sexual conduct with a teenage girl," said Matt Nolan, spokesman for the Warren County Prosecutor's Office.

The alleged misconduct occurred in Springboro, Nolan said, and a lower court has sent the case to a Warren County grand jury for possible indictment.

Jail records show Dye was booked June 30, and her case was heard in Warren County Court in Lebanon on Tuesday.

Her bond was set at $100,000, and a temporary protection order was issued barring her from contact with the girl alleged to have been victimized.

Woman allegedly poses as boy, solicits sex from Springboro teen

LEBANON — A Franklin woman pretended to be a 14-year-old boy named Matt Abrams to get close to a Springboro girl, authorities said.

Patricia Dye, 31, of Franklin, remained in the Warren County Jail on Tuesday, July 6, charged with unlawful sexual conduct with and corruption of a 16-year-old Springboro girl in late May at the girl’s home.

Dye, who used the alias Matt Abrams, is 4 feet 11 inches tall, smaller than the 5-foot-5 victim, according to police reports.

“They were boyfriend-girlfriend,” Sgt. Bob Marchiny said. “(Dye) looks just like a boy.”

Police began investigating Dye after the girl ran away from a hotel where they had been living together for three days in June. The girl did not realize Dye was a woman, Marchiny said.

“We realized the person she was with wasn’t who we thought she was,” Marchiny said.

Dye, arrested on June 30 in Franklin, admitted to pretending to being a boy, Marchiny said.

“It’s not an easy thing to do,” Marchiny said.

Dye is charged with corruption of a minor and unlawful sex with a minor. A charge of importuning, or soliciting sex with the girl, was dismissed after a pretrial hearing Tuesday, according to prosecutors.

On Tuesday, Judge Donald Oda sent the case to a grand jury after a pretrial hearing in Warren County Court. Dye remained in the Warren County Jail on $100,000 bond.

Dye, who lived with her parents at a hotel in Franklin, has no local criminal record. No other charges have been filed.

Police are investigating whether there are other victims, Marchiny said.

Wonder how they met??? Weird, weird, weird...More to this story than meets the eye???

To me, this woman COULD easily pass for a young teenage male....

What a strange story.

What mom would let her 16 y/o daughter go live with a teen age boy (14), in a hotel no less. Why was this woman @ 31 years of age living with her parents in a hotel? This is strange.

SPRINGBORO — The Springboro apartment Patricia Dye’s alleged victim ran away from on her 16th birthday was in filthy conditions, according to a police report released on Monday, July 13, by the Springboro Police Department.

The Springboro girl’s mother — in Sycamore Hospital recovering from gallbladder surgery — took steps to have the apartment cleaned after authorities learned of the poor conditions while turning the girl over to relatives on June 24, according to the report.

The aunt who took custody of the girl desribed “garbage/clothing knee-deep throughout the apartment, that there were multiple uncaged animals and that the apartment was infested with lice,” according to the report.

The case has drawn international media attention.

On Monday, Dye, 31, of Franklin remained in the Butler County Jail on $100,000 bond, awaiting consideration of her case by a Warren County grand jury. She is charged with corruption of a minor and unlawful sexual conduct with a minor.

The police report also says it was a Franklin police officer who first determined Dye was pretending to be a 14-year-old boy after the Springboro girl was found on June 24 without shoes and unfed for three days, wandering the streets of Franklin.

“She still cannot wear tennis shoes. She did not eat for days,” her mother said last week.

Dye was arrested June 30 by Springboro police. Police say she admitted pretending to be a boy to get close to the girl.

While acknowledging that Dye had a history of pretending to be a boy, her parents say the Springboro girl should have known their daughter was a woman and question whether the allegations are true.

Friends and family involved in the case said they believed Dye was a 14-year-old boy named Matthew Abrams.

Police turned the girl over to the aunt, who accompanied her to Children’s Medical Center of Dayton for examination for sexual assault, according to the report.
