A Florida nurse who admitted to having sexual contact with her 15-year-old stepson has been sentenced to two years in prison. Alexis Von Yates, 35, was also ordered to serve two years of community control and 10 years of probation as a registered sex offender.
The victim's mother condemned Von Yates during the sentencing hearing, describing her as an 'incestuous pedophile' who groomed and violated her son. She accused Von Yates of showing no remorse for her 'despicable actions' and noted that the boy's father has not spoken to him since the incident.
Von Yates was caught by her husband while sexually abusing the teenager as they watched a horror movie at their Ocala home on July 26, 2024. According to reports, she had told the boy she was 'horny' and had been making 'sexual jokes' for about a week prior.
Arrested in November, Von Yates lost her job and nursing license soon after. She initially faced a charge of sexual battery by a person in familial authority but accepted a plea deal, pleading no contest to lesser charges of lewd and lascivious battery last month.
In addition to prison and probation, Von Yates must complete 200 hours of community service, pay fines and court fees, and have no contact with the victim. She was taken into custody immediately after sentencing.
