An Irving woman turned her 14-year-old daughter into a sex slave who was raped by 100 to 150 men over several months, Dallas County prosecutors say.
Athena Stoddard was convicted Wednesday on charges of compelling prostitution and enabling sexual assault after her traumatized daughter testified against her. A judge also saw evidence that the child had suffered internal injuries and sexually transmitted diseases.
"She would drive her to these apartment complexes and round up men and tell them, 'Sex for money,' " prosecutor Michelle Willbanks said. "She was doing it for drug money."
Ms. Stoddard, 44, generally stayed nearby during the abuse, according to testimony, sometimes turning tricks with other men in the same room. Other times she simply waited for the strangers to finish with her daughter and then collected her fees.

Athena Stoddard
...and not for the girl.
Eliminate her
Pray for healing for the young girl. What a monster this woman is. Drugs are no excuse for this. May she burn in hell for committing crimes against her daughter's soul.
Nothing like a mother's love.
And some people say, marijuana doesn't lead to DRUGS, DRUGS are okay, legalize DRUGS, stop the war on DRUGS, and on and on and on....blah blah blah.....This story is my answer to their plaints. This poor girl's (the daughter)torture is so heartbreaking, I cannot understand the detachment and distance with which some of these drug-culture EQUIVOCATORS operate......incomprehensible!!!!!!
Damn this horrible woman.
Damn those men too....find them....hunt them.
I don't know how those men can live with themselves. Even under the strangest of circumstances (drunk, drugged, pistol at my head) I could not live with myself if I had sinned like that.
What monsters.
They really should enact a depravity death penalty law for extreme cases like this.
Let the jury decide. "We, the jury, find the defendant so depraved as to neccessitate removal from the planet."
Some people have so little respect for themselves that it is impossible to respect others. These are lowlifes to start with. They are so devoid of character and conscience that for them raping a child is no big deal.
I cannot express how violently I would make this woman pay if it were up to me. Let's just say that by the time she was at death's door, she'd be pounding on it.
I almost feel a need to disinfect my computer monitor after having shown the picture of this horrible monster. Just Dam!
Lord come soon and put an end to this kind of madness. AMEN
Or put her in a male prison and see how she likes it.
That's damn right. Hang mom than find the guys who did the other damage and get them behind bars.
Death is too good for her.
Or, you could take the liberal point of view: These guys are mere victims. Judge not. Etc.
