A Florida mother faces 21 life sentences for creating and selling sickening sexual abuse videos involving her young children and the family dog.

A jury convicted Natalie Jesslynn Wagner, 28, of Port St. Lucie of 84 felonies in connection with the case.

Circuit Judge Lawrence Mirman imposed the sentence last week, Treasure Coast Newspapers reported.

"A mother doing this to her infant 1-year-old son and her toddler 3-year-old son. It doesn't get more egregious or evil," Assistant State Attorney Katy Reid said.

She added that it was "one of the worst sexual abuse cases I've ever seen."

Wagner was arrested in Aug. 2022. She was eventually charged with capital sexual battery on a child, lewd and lascivious molestation, possession and promotion of child pornography, incest and sexual activity with an animal.

She uploaded and sold videos of herself abusing the children and sold them for between $20 and $50.

Other family members are now caring for the two boys.

"They're doing better. The 3-year-old specifically, I know went to therapy," Reid said. "And I think it helped, is my understanding."
