It's a major betrayal to know and not tell him. You are actually complicit in her making a fool out of him. You're also enabling her!
Telling tomorrow. Were both off

I thought it was wrong, but I wasn't related and I don't butt in to other people's families. Not my business, not my problem.

She didn't peek in, but what else would they be doing overnight? Actually I quite liked her boyfriend "Baggage" (called because he had bags under his eyes at that age). He and I hit it off because he has a good sense of humor, and he was banging the daughter while I was banging the mother.
Woah !!!

I would not do any of this by text. This is all a face-to-face matter, no matter what.

Nor would I contact Rachelle. What do you expect her to do? Break down and confess and repent?

That's not going to happen--she's going to fight back and she's going to do it by driving a wedge between you and your son.

I'd take some of the earlier advice. Speak to your son first Lay out for him what you've heard without emotionalism and without telling him what to do. Just give him the information--what you heard the way you heard it--don't embellish it.

Let him decide what to do.

It might be too late, and others have probably said it already, but absolutely do NOT converse with Rachelle via text. A phone call would be better, but talking to her in person would be best. There is so much to communicate through body language and facial expressions. It would be easier for Rachelle to see that this is serious and for you to see if she’s being honest in her responses to your questions.
