So, that essentially covers the entirety of this story!
A 39-year old Maryland woman, Lisa Carroll and a 16-year old boy in Florida met through a mutual enjoyment of the game War 2 Glory. From there, the two began corresponding via Skype and even became engaged via Skype. Let's let ABC News fill in the rest for us.
"Florida law enforcement authorities obtained a warrant for Lisa Carroll from Joppa charging her with nine counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor and one count of traveling to meet a minor," said Greg Shipley of the Maryland State Police.
According to investigators, Carroll and the teen moved beyond the video game to forming a relationship via Skype that became physical when the woman allegedly drove 800 miles to meet him in a Southwest Florida hotel.
The minor’s parents intervened after they learned of the relationship, but they had no idea it had gone that far and that the couple planned on getting married.
"The information developed during the investigation is that there is apparently, at least on their part, an engagement between the two. At least that's what they told investigators," said Shipley.

Oh but that's not yet the best part. The best part is when the arrested happened at Carroll's home in Maryland. Turns out she's married and her husband had no idea about anything that was going on.
And yes, that picture at the top is actually of the woman.
