Registered sex offender Jeni Lee Dinkel posted bond Tuesday after spending a night in jail on charges she violated probation.
Kenton Circuit Judge Gregory Bartlett allowed the 52-year-old mother to post 10 percent of a $5,000 bond.
Dinkel pleaded guilty in May to one count of third-degree rape for having sex with a 15-year-old friend of her son. She was ordered to serve 60 days in jail, be placed on probation for five years and register as a sex offender for 20 years.
Probation officer Tara Cooper, in an affidavit filed at the justice center, said Dinkel failed to complete a sex offender treatment program as ordered by the court.
Dinkel was kicked out of the program Feb. 14 because she failed to accept responsibility for her crime and refused to take a polygraph test, according to court records.
"Short of absconding or committing a new offense, failure to complete sex offender treatment is one of the next most important conditions of probation," Commonwealth's Attorney Rob Sanders said.
He said Dinkel could be placed back on probation or ordered to serve up to five years in jail if found in violation of her probation. A hearing is Monday.
Lawyer Bob Lotz, who represented Dinkel during her sentencing on the rape charge, said he anticipates being hired to defend her at the probation-revocation hearing.
Dinkel's husband, former Bengals linebacker Tom Dinkel, declined to comment Tuesday
