Wed Apr 30 10:50:00 UTC 2025: **Florida Nurse Charged with Statutory Rape of 15-Year-Old Stepson**

OCALA, FL – A 35-year-old nurse, Alexis Von Yates, has been charged with the statutory rape of her 15-year-old stepson following an incident that occurred last July. Yates was arrested in November after a family member reported the alleged assault to authorities, despite the victim’s father initially failing to do so.

According to an arrest affidavit, Yates was caught in the act with her stepson by his father, who returned home unexpectedly to find the pair naked on the sofa. The affidavit details a series of alleged seductive behaviors by Yates leading up to the assault, including comments about the boy’s appearance, attempts to entice him with whipped cream, and repeated statements about her sexual desires. The affidavit alleges Yates engaged in oral sex and intercourse with the teenager, despite his stated discomfort and her awareness of his age. Following the incident, Yates allegedly contacted the boy, expressing regret at being caught and soliciting a rating of her performance.

The father, reportedly distraught and under the influence of alcohol, drove his son to his grandparents after the incident. Yates’ nursing license has been revoked. She has pleaded not guilty to the felony charge of lewd or lascivious battery and awaits trial. The case underscores the devastating consequences of such crimes and highlights the importance of reporting child sexual abuse.
