The Florida nurse whose husband allegedly “walked in” and caught her sexually abusing his 15-year-old son has taken a plea deal that will “significantly reduce” her prison sentence.
Alexis Von Yates, 35, was initially charged with engaging in “unlawful sexual activity” with a minor after her husband Frank claimed he caught his wife “red-handed” last year.
However the former nurse, who lost her medical license after the sexual abuse allegations emerged, has now pleaded no contest to a lesser charge of lewd and lascivious battery during a recent hearing, Court TV reports.
Prosecutors said the victim’s family supported the negotiated plea as it meant the 15-year-old victim would avoid “reliving” his ordeal, something they feared would disrupt his ongoing mental health treatment.
