A female pedophile molested several young boys at an Oklahoma swimming pool and called her victims “daddy,” police said.
Kayla Lena, 28, was arrested and charged with two counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child under the age of 16, following the incident last month.
According to Del City police, the boys, ages 12 and 13, told officers that Lena had been touching them for several days and that she had 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 them and called them “daddy.”
Lifeguards told officers that Lena followed the boys around the pool and touched them “in their groin and buttocks.”
She was then taken to the Oklahoma County Jail, where jail records now show she was released on bail.

Officers who arrived on scene found Lena outside the public pool, and their interaction was captured on bodycam footage.
The images obtained by KVORshows an officer telling Lena to fold her hands together, to which she responds “okay.”
At one point she asks, “Can I call my grandma?” to which an officer replies, “How old are you?” She then replies, “28.”
The officer asks, “What’s going on today?” Rena answers, “Nothing,” while she is handcuffed.
Eventually, she tried to explain her actions by telling the officers that she was drowning, then grabbed one of the boys to pull herself up.
Major Brad Cowden of the press office: ‘It is absolutely disturbing to see something like this happen in a place where we want people to come, feel safe and just have a good time.
“It really emphasises how important it is for both staff and parents in general to be attentive and vigilant about their children, even in public places.”
She was then taken to the Oklahoma County Jail. Jail records show she was released on bond.
The footage, obtained by KFOR, shows an officer asking Lena to keep her hands together, to which she responds “okay.”
Court documents allege that Lena “intentionally and knowingly looked at, touched, fondled or groped the body or genitals of two boys, ages 12 and 13.”
It is alleged that she did this ‘in a lewd and lascivious manner, intended to excite and titillate’.
According to authorities, statements from the two victims and other witnesses indicate that she attacked the same two boys several times a day.
