FAYETTE, IOWA – Two female nursing assistants who worked at home for troubled persons were nabbed by police after they developed sexual relationships with patients who absconded from the facility.
On February 21, 2018 the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office was notified by Prairie View Management Facility that two court ordered patients had walked away from the facility and were unable to be located. The two missing patients were entered into the state computer as missing persons. On February 25, 2018 the Sheriff’s Office learned that the two missing patients were seen with two female staff members who were Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA) licensed by the state. An investigation took place and evidence was gathered that showed that Megan Marie Penney, age 26 of Clermont and Paige Lynn Johanningmeier, age 23 of Elgin had developed a relationship with the two patients and once they had left the facility it became sexual.
On March 6, 2018 both CNA’s were arrested and charged with Sexual exploitation by a counselor, therapist or school employee, a class “D” Felony. If convicted both could face 5 years in prison and be required to register on the sex offender registry for 10 years.
Both patients were found and one was taken to a hospital in Linn County and the other was returned to Prairie View for treatment.
Penney and Johanningmeier each posted a $2,000.00 bond and were released later that day.

The article fails to include two important facts 1.) How old were the males, 2.) Were the males willing participants or were they being forced. Looks like these two females are getting charged with tougher sentences than pedophiles.
Can we guess what these male subjects look like? These girls look like they prefer greasy dark meat.
This whole thing is bogus!
Wait for the slap on the wrist. If it were male suspects they’d be hanged.
As it should be for a “crime” like this. Stop pretending men and women are the same.
Let’s see. These to fellows were court ordered to a home for “troubled people”. Doesn’t say they were IN trouble. So these “troubled souls” found some joy with their caretakers. (wink wink)
Maybe these two gals cured their troubles and they left the home for “troubled people”. Sex does wonders and it appears it gave these fellows some hope and joy so they got their power and walked off. Sounds healthy to me.
Whose to judge that these gals were doing these fellers harm? Looks to me they were putting a smile on the fellows face and theirs too.
HMMM???
You have a perverted mind. May you never have a loved one be abused by a caretaker. Too much abuse going on in these settings and people like you say It’s okay. Sad! So would it have been okay for two male workers to take advantage of your daughters (if you have any) ?
It didn’t say they were “children”. Not everything is abuse. I know today everyone wants to claim victim status. I get what is being considered. The writer was only saying that “sex” can be therapeutic. Calling something abuse when it isn’t is also abusive!
Certified nursing assistants go through the same training that all health professionals go through. What they did was wrong no matter what the age of the two “troubled individuals is”. Too bad they wasted their education and future on putting a smile on the faces of these two boys. What they did is abuse whether you think it is or not.
i’m sure your yipping and yapping is all fine in kommiefornia but here in iowa we realize that there are precisely two genders, they are not the same, and already questionable statutory rape laws produces completely bizarre results, when improperly applied to young attractive women submitting to sex advances from horny adolescent boys. yawn.
“Troubled persons” are not necessarily elderly. It’s possible there was some money involved.
People who are charged with the care of anyone are held to a higher standard as they should be. Unfortunately, the staff of some of these warehouses for kids have little or no or training to deal with the emotional issues these kids have. The courts dump them there and families have little recourse to the abuses that take place there.
I don’t get it. Why is this a felony in the first place?
My wife and I are in our mid 70’s OK. I just read this article to my wife and she got a puzzled look on her face and expressed your sentiments exactly. Why is this a crime?
I am laughing my butt off at those two duffers. Those girls problems cured what was wrong with those fellows with whatever landed them in the court ordered place in the first place.
I m not sure what you find so humerus about staff taking advantage of individuals who may not have the capacity to consent.
How do you know that? Where does it say that in the article?
Lol, awesome! I wish my Lady was as laid back as yours
