Officials said Ruiz, a former officer of the Friona Police Department, sent the younger victim flirtatious messages and lured him a local church parking lot for sex in her car on at least three separate occasions.

During that time, the officer also sent the youth sexually explicit photos and videos of herself, court documents reveal, and warned him not to tell anyone about their meets, because she could get into ‘big trouble.’

Ruiz met the then-15-year-old victim, identified in the indictment as John Doe 1, at the home of the younger teen, John Doe 2, in the spring of 2021.

At that point, fed say, the then-30-old had been engaged in a relationship with the younger victim for roughly half a year, from fall of the previous year. 

In a January plea deal, Ruiz admitted having sexual intercourse with the elder victim in autumn 2020 when the boy was 16. She continued to meet with the boy until he turned 17, then moving on to his younger friend.

Ruiz was arrested and fired from the force in October 2021. Neither of the victims were identified due to their age.
