A female pedophile preyed on multiple young boys at an Oklahoma swimming pool and called her victims ‘daddy,’ police say.
Kayla Lena, 28, was taken into custody and charged with two counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child under the age of 16 following the incident last month.
Police in Del City say the boys, 12 and 13, told officers that Lena had been touching them over several days and even asked one of them to be his girlfriend.
Rena allegedly attempted to remove some of their clothing at the Eagle Harbor Aquatic Center, grabbed at them and called them ‘daddy’.
Lifeguards told responding officers that Lena had been following the boys around the pool ‘touching them in the groin and buttocks’.
She was subsequently taken to the Oklahoma County Jail, with jail records now showing that she was bailed out

Officers who arrived on the scene found Lena outside of the public pool with their interaction caught on body camera footage.
The footage, obtained by KFOR, shows an officer telling Lena to put her hands together to which she responds ‘okay’.
At one point she asks ‘can I call my grandma?’, to which an officer answers ‘how old are you?’. She then responds ’28’.
The officer asks, ‘what is going on today?’, Rena responds ‘nothing’, as she is handcuffed.
Eventually, she tried to explain her actions by telling officers she was drowning and grabbed one of the boys in an attempt to pull herself up.
Major Brad Cowden the outlet: ‘It’s definitely troubling to see something like this happen at a place where we want people to come and feel safe, and just have a good time while they’re there.
‘It really, really emphasizes the importance of both the staff and just parents in general to be to be mindful, be vigilant of their children, even in public places.’
She was subsequently taken to the Oklahoma County Jail, with jail records now showing that she was bailed out.

Court documents claim that Lena ‘knowingly and intentionally looked upon, touched, mauled, or felt the body or private parts” of two boys, ages 12 and 13.
It is claimed she did so ‘in a lewd and lascivious manner calculated to arouse and excite’.
Authorities say the statements from the two victims and other witnesses indicate that she targeted the same two boys on multiple occasions over several days.
