An Arvada woman accused of hosting parties with sex, drug and alcohol so high school students would think she was "cool" is expected to enter a plea Monday. Silvia Johnson, 40, has had two previously scheduled arraignments postponed. She faces multiple counts of sexual assault, distributing a controlled substance and contributing to the delinquency of minors.

Authorities say Johnson hosted the parties at her home nearly every month for a year beginning in October 2003. She's accused of providing the teens with marijuana, methamphetamine and alcohol at the parties.

The story has since made national news, with some alleged victims and their mothers appearing on network and syndicated television shows to tell their stories.

Johnson allegedly told investigators she held the parties because she wanted her daughter's classmates and other students to think of her as a "cool mom."

One teenage boy says he did think Johnson was cool, until he "found out she was a pedophile."

The parties were discovered when the mother of one of the boys involved saw text messages Johnson was sending to her son's cell phone.

She must have been considered a "loser" when she was in high school & was trying to make up for it. Meanwhile she just destroyed her daughter's chance of having a normal hs experience.

Well, she might be the coolest mom in the general population.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Nothin's cooler than a stint in the big house these days.

Heck, she might even be a hip-hop star by the time she gets out

.....so high school students would think she was "cool"

BS. ....she just wanted some. (And she got it, apparently).

If they keep her in jail long enough maybe she'll grow up.

[Hi Heels]

Some people never grow up.....

I would bet that she was "popular" with ALL the boys, if you catch my drift.

Meanwhile she just destroyed her daughter's chance of having a normal hs experience.

Dunno.
Maybe there'll be some bragging rights to "My Mom was just voted inmate of the Month".

I was a loser in HS and I don't feel any need to do crazy stuff like this. People are getting more crazed by the day.

True, could just as easily have been the popular girl who can't let go of her 'glory days' no matter what the mirror tells her.

She's not bad looking. Must be a white trash thing.

[The_Victor]

It's a good thing (for my children) that I enjoy being a killjoy and curmudgeon.

Silvia "cool mom" Johnson

She's not bad looking.

Are you looking at the same pic that you just posted? She's disgusting!

[LRS]

Why do I have the feeling she suffers from "Meth Mouth"?

[MeanWestTexan]

Good looking? That woman has been ridden hard and put away wet too many times to be good looking anymore. Probably a nice-looking bimbo, 20 years ago, though.

White trash are like roses; they smell sweet and look good right before they wilt: example: Britney Spears.

[Sweet_Sunflower29]

Geesh... and here I thought *I* was the cool mom 'cause I go on the field trips, make cupcakes for birthdays, help in their classrooms...
