WPTV says she sold the videos on Snapchat for $5 to $50.
WPTV says that Reid said users told her what they wanted to see. Reid told WPTV that the crimes were found out when Snapchat users reported a parent who was “advertising” videos of themselves having sex with their own children. Reid told WPTV that the dad was Wagner.
It was sent by Snapchat to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. That center used an IP address to find Wagner in Port St. Lucie. WPTV has news.
“She was their mom.” Based on what Reid told PEOPLE, “she was the one who should have made sure this never happened to them.”
Reid said that family members are taking care of the kids and that the 3-year-old is going to therapy.
People asked Wagner’s public defender for a response, but they didn’t answer.
