Wife, who was caught indcently assauIting her husband’s chiId after he returned unexpectedIy, then attempted to defend her actions by cIaiming the boy resembIed his parent when he was younger, was sentenced

Florida – A Florida woman was ordered to spend the next two years behind bars after pIeading no contest to charges of Iewd and Iascivious battery involving her hsband’s chiId. The sentence was part of a plea agreement that also included two years of community control, ten years of probation as a registered se* offender, 200 hours of community service, and fines and court costs. A no-contact order was issued, prohibiting her from contacting the victim.

The case came to light in July last year when the defendant’s husband unexpectedly returned home and discovered her engaged in se-ual activity with his chiId, 15. Florida authorities were immediately contacted, and the teenager was removed from the home. The victim’s father provided officers with details about what he had found, explaining the sequence of events and noting his shock and disbelief at the situation. Investigators documented his statements and collected evidence, which became part of the prosecutorial case.

Following her arrest in Nov., the defendant, 34-year-old AIexis Yattes, lost her nursing license. The Florida Department of Health revoked her license, citing a lack of the good judgment and moral character required to hold a professional medical license. Investigators obtained additional information from the home, including electronic devices and other materials that helped corroborate the victim’s account of events. Law enforcement also interviewed the defendant who reportedly admitted to inappropriate sexual contact but claimed it was not planned and attempted to minimize her actions, NYP reported.

According to Florida authorities, the investigation process began after an anonymous tip led authorities to the Sheriff’s Office. According to the arrest affidavit, the woman had been making inappropriate comments and advances toward her husband’s son for several weeks prior to the incident.

On the night of the abuse, she allegedly initiated se-ual contact with the 15-year-old after they had smoked a marljuana vape and watched movies together. The victim’s father returned home unexpectedly and found the two in a compromising position, which led to a confrontation. Despite the discovery, the father did not immediately report the incident. It was only later, after a concerned famiIy member learned of the situation, that Florida authorities were notified.

During the investigation, the victim provided a detailed account of the events leading up to and including the abuse. He described how the much older woman had been making se-ual comments and gestures, including using whipped cream in a suggestive manner, to groom him over the preceding days. He also recounted how she had expressed regret only about being caught and attempted to justify her actions by claiming he resembled his father when he was younger. These statements were corroborated by evidence collected during the investigation.

The victim’s mother delivered a statement during the sentencing hearing, condemning Von Yates as an “incstuous ped ophiIe” and describing the trauma inflicted upon her son. She said the boy had been gromed over time and emphasized that the family was struggling to cope with the psychological impact of the abuse. Court records note that the victim is now receiving counseling and therapy to address the emotional and psychological effects of the abuse. The mother also criticized Von Yates for showing no remorse and for betraying the trust of the family.
