Trailer Park Mother Sells Photos Online Of Naked Daughter
In a shocking story out of Missouri, a 27-year-old woman allegedly sold naked pictures of her 11-year-old daughter online to men.
The woman, who lives in a trailer home off Highway 8 in Steelville Missouri, now faces charges of selling the images as well as for prostituting her daughter to some of the men she met online.
The woman was arrested on Thursday and will be charged with promoting a sexual performance by a child and endangering the welfare of a child. She is currently being held in the Crawford County Jail on a $50,000 bond.
Cellphones and computer hard drives were seized by police from the trailer home as part of the investigation. Authorities have said that they hope to make more arrests once they have revealed the identity of the male perpetrators of the sex acts on the child.
What makes the case even worse is the fact that the woman used social media as her platform for making money from her underage daughter. According to The Missourian which broke the story, she would send pictures of her naked daughter to men and receive pictures back from them as well as money.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, the mother also apparently invited some of the men to her trailer home where she let them use her daughter sexually in exchange for money.
The crimes only came to light when teachers at the child’s school found adult sleeping pills in her school bag. When they asked the child where she got the pills she said her mother had given them to her.
This lead to the police questioning the mother, who admitted to giving her daughter the sleeping pills. On further questioning the mother also revealed that she had let her daughter be used by men she sold the photos to.
The grandfather of the child spoke to reporters telling them that he was pleased the woman was arrested: “She’s right where she belongs,” he said.
The mother could face up to 14 years in jail if convicted. The police investigation into the incident is ongoing pending trial.
