A Nebraska mom who sexually abused her daughter’s friends and gave them margaritas and marijuana-infused gummy bears during wild sleepovers at her home will spend up to 102 years behind bars.
Christina Greer was convicted in March of three counts of first-degree sexual assault of a child involving two boys ages 12 and 13, six counts of felony child abuse, and two counts of witness tampering.
The 38-year-old mother had sexual intercourse with two boys, aged 12 and 13, while they came to meet their friend, Greer’s 11-year-old daughter for weekend sleepovers in late 2017 and early 2018. She also gave marijuana-infused gummy bears to the two boys and told them not to tell anyone about the parties, according to the Sarpy County attorney’s office.
Greer groomed two of the boys into having sex with her, and police found sexually explicit photos of Greer on one victim’s phone, court documents reveal.
“The victims had to go through a lot, to put it lightly,” said prosecutor Phil Kleine with the Sarpy County Attorney’s office. “I hope that, with the court’s sentence, the victims will be able to find some form of closure and be able to move forward with their lives.”
Additionally, she was found guilty of six counts of child abuse and two counts of witness tampering. A jury in Sarpy County found her not guilty of one count of first-degree sexual assault of a child and one count of child enticement, according to the Omaha World-Herald.
“Having sex with an adult female is thought of, ‘That’s the cool kid of the group,’” said Sarpy County Deputy Attorney Phil Kleine. “It’s just not the case in these situations. They’ve been bullied, transferred schools multiple times. It’s just unfortunate they have to continue to deal with it.”
The victims in the case – and Greer’s daughter – have not been publicly identified because they are all minors. However, Greer’s daughter testified in court and explained how her mother told her not to tell anyone about the sexual assaults going on inside the house. The daughter confessed that she caught her mother and a boy kissing in one of the rooms.
Through tears during sentencing, Greer said she was “so ashamed and sorry” and noted that she had “failed” her own children.
She won’t be eligible for parole for at least 32 years — when she’s 70 years old thereabouts.
