Exclusive | Teen boy vanishes after alleged rape by California therapist as mom fears hes made a shocking decision

The mother of a California teen allegedly raped by his juvenile hall therapist said her son has run away from home — and she fears he may be visiting the clinician in violation of court orders.Former jail counselor Sofia Drotts, 26, of San Francisco, is free on bail after she was hit Monday with a slew of felony charges, including unlawful sexual intercourse, related to her relationship with the teen.Drotts was arrested two weeks ago for allegedly grooming and raping the teenager, whom she counseled at a Contra Costa County juvenile hall.After his release, she is accused of secretly posing as his teenage girlfriend and using a burner phone to stay in contact with him.The unidentified boy’s distraught mom told The California Post that her 17-year-old son may have decided to go back to his former therapist.The teen, who believes the relationship between him and Drotts was consensual, went missing when the therapist was nabbed by cops, his mom said.“He just left,” said the concerned mother, who asked to remain anonymous to protect her son’s identity.“I don’t know where he is.

I hope he’s not with her.”She added that her son had been in constant contact with Drotts since his April release and that he was on a video call with her at the exact moment she was arrested by Concord Police.The mom alleged that Drotts painstakingly groomed the teen for more than two years while she provided therapy, duping the family into thinking she was a concerned caregiver.Instead of Drotts treating the the teen, his mom claimed, the therapist conned the boy into falling for her.California's top news, sports and entertainment delivered to your inbox every day.
