Throw away the key.
Wichita woman accused of prostituting daughter, 5
By RON SYLVESTER
The Wichita Eagle
A 48-year-old Wichita woman is accused of prostituting her 5-year-old daughter, and prosecutors say it wasn’t the first time.

Sedgwick County District Attorney Nola Foulston has requested a judge’s permission to introduce testimony from two of the woman’s grown daughters, who said she sold them for sex when they were between the ages of 8 and 14.

When the mother goes on trial, however, the jury only will hear about the 5-year-old whose sexual favors, prosecutors say, were sold to a man her mother knew for years.

District Judge Greg Waller has ruled that testimony about the 5-year-old’s older sisters won’t be allowed at trial. He said the stories of the older women didn’t meet the strict guidelines set by the Kansas Supreme Court for introduction of prior bad acts.

Prosecutors said they were trying to show a pattern of behavior.

The 48-year-old woman and her friend, Reggie Stafford, 51, are charged with multiple counts of rape, sodomy and aggravated indecent liberties with a child.

3. How can a 5-year-old offer "sexual favors"?
That is a sick term, and whoever wrote this should have his or her ass kicked from here to Hoboken.

A more accurate term would have been "sold her daughter's body".

I hope these swine not only rot in jail for life, I hope they become prison bitches and suffer some of the same terror they imposed on those three poor girls.
