Mom Has Daughter, 8, Do Porn

(Bridgeport, Connecticut) Back in 2001, a woman and her boyfriend, two workers at a travel agency, conspired to produce child porn using the woman's eight-year-old daughter. Neither eluded legal consequences for the crime.

A mother formerly from Fairfield was sentenced Monday to eight years in federal prison for participating with her ex-boyfriend in performing and filming sexual acts on her 8-year old daughter.

Senior U.S. District Judge Warren W. Eginton said such a low term won't be the case Tuesday when he sentences Edgardo Sensi, the former boyfriend, who is accused of filming similar acts with other children including a 4-year-old in Nicaragua.

"The court is very disturbed by the film I saw," Eginton said. "It's just so dreadful." He called Sensi a "very evil person" about whom "I will have a lot to say tomorrow."

In sentencing the mother, Eginton said he considered her willingness to spare her daughter from recounting the year-long abuse and to testify herself against Sensi had he gone to trial.[…]

Public Defender Ronald Resetarits blamed some of the mother's issues on mental and psychological abuse inflicted by first her father and then her former husband. He said they criticized, belittled and often insulted her because of her lack of education and her excessive weight.

The woman's name is withheld to protect the identity of the daughter.
