Mom convicted of exploitation in graphic NH trial

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — The allegations were almost too heinous and far-fetched to be believed. A New Hampshire lawyer who graduated at the top of her class and credited her success to Christianity was accused of using her 14-year-old daughter as a sexual pawn, at one point even engaging in a sexual act with the girl on camera.

In a recorded phone conversation with her daughter from jail in December, the woman told her, ‘‘I should have been the mom, not the friend.’’ She was neither, according to a U.S. attorney and testimony at the brief trial in U.S. District Court in Concord, which included two men recounting sexual encounters with the mother and daughter.

The lawyer was a member of, and had advocated for, a Christian legal group that fights against same-sex marriage and for other conservative causes.

The mother has been behind bars since her arrest in November and faces at least 25 years in prison when sentenced in April

Horrific details here...
