Alexis Von Yates, an Ocala, Florida nurse who was caught having sex with her husband's 15-year-old son, has agreed to a plea deal that will minimize her prison time after the event resulted in the stepmother losing her nursing license, as the boy's family seeks to avoid him'reliving' his trauma during court evidence. 

A Florida nurse who was caught having sexual relations with her husband's 15-year-old son has agreed to a plea deal that will'significantly lessen' the prison term she will now have to serve.
Alexis Von Yates, 35, of Ocala 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.

The former nurse, who lost her medical license when the sexual assault allegations surfaced, pleaded no guilty to a lesser charge of lewd and lascivious battery at a recent hearing, according to Court TV.

Prosecutors said the victim's family accepted the negotiated plea because it prevented the 15-year-old victim from'reliving' his ordeal, which they feared would interrupt his ongoing mental health therapy.

According to the conditions of the plea agreement, Von Yates will serve two years in the Department of Corrections, followed by two years of community control and ten years of sex offender probation.

She must also serve 200 hours of community service and pay penalties and court expenses.

However the exact details of her sentence will be handed down in September when the victim and his biological mother plan to make statements to the court.

Police initiated an inquiry after receiving an anonymous tip in July 2024, just days after the alleged sexual abuse happened, that 'included information that the kid victim's father had walked in on the encounter.'

According to reports at the time, Von Yates abused her teen stepson when he was on summer vacation in Florida with his father.
According to court filings, Yates allegedly put her two children to bed before hanging out in the living area with her 15-year-old stepson.

The couple allegedly smoked a THC vape (a substance found in marijuana plants), played computer games, and watched movies together.
It wasn’t until around 1 a.m, that the stepmother is alleged to have then ‘seduced’ the victim minor, after telling the victim how ‘horny’ she was.

In statements given to police, the boy claimed she told him she was sexually frustrated because ‘she had not had sex in two weeks and she was on her period’.

The pair then cuddled before kissing. At this point, it is claimed Von Yates allegedly told the boy: ‘I wish you were 18, because you’re not old enough’.

Von Yates then ‘kicked off’ her underwear before sexual contact occurred, according to the affidavit.

About this time, Frank came home from work and is alleged to have discovered his wife and son on the couch, completely naked, with the father responding, ‘What the f–k’ is going on?’

The father is then said to have begun throwing objects, before calling Von Yates a ‘c–t’ and accusing her of being a ‘child predator.’

The 15-year-old ran out of the house, but allegedly heard Von Yates tell his father that his son looked just like him ‘when he was younger’, according to the affidavit.

Following her arrest on November 6, 2024, Von Yates’ nursing license was suspended.

The victim had been scheduled to testify about the incident over a Zoom call, but has now been spared as a result of the plea agreement.

‘The family’s desire for Von Yates to do additional time is outweighed by their overall concern for the victim’s mental and emotional health,’ Prosecutor Shanae Pickens told the judge on Thursday.

‘The mother feels it is justice for him to not have to relive this situation.’

In Florida, the age of consent is 18 years old.
