A Glenpool woman pleaded guilty Friday to sexually abusing a 4-year-old relative.

Samantha Jo Bryant, 23, also pleaded guilty to permitting the girl to be sexually abused by Bryant’s boyfriend, records show.

Bryant, who was arrested March 28, is in the Tulsa Jail. She has no plea agreement with prosecutors to govern her punishment.

Tulsa County District Judge Tom Gillert set sentencing for June 21.

”You should not expect to be going home that day,’’ Gillert told the defendant.

Each of the two counts allows the possibility of a life prison term.

Prosecutors allege in documents that Bryant performed a sex act on a 4-year-old girl at a Glenpool residence while a man named Jon Adleta took photographs.

Adleta, whose last name is spelled as Adelta in some records and reports, is accused of performing a sex act on the girl as Bryant took video footage of it on her cell phone, according to an arrest report.

Adleta has not been charged in Tulsa County District Court regarding the case, which has also involved an investigation by federal authorities.
