MINDEN, Nev. " A 32-year-old former Topaz Ranch Estates woman is set to enter a plea April 27 to allegations that she and her ex-husband participated in sexual activities with their two young daughters.
Stacy Thoman waived a preliminary hearing Friday in East Fork Justice Court on the condition that she receive a letter from the Washoe County District Attorney's Office that she not face charges in that jurisdiction.
Her ex-husband, Kevan Thoman, 35, faces life in prison at his sentencing April 22 in Washoe County.
Stacy Thoman faces six felony charges involving lewdness with a child under 14 and child abuse or neglect (sexual) of a child under the age of 14 causing substantial bodily or mental harm.
If convicted, she faces life in prison.
According to reports, Stacy Thoman made allegations against her ex-husband last summer to Reno police.
She claimed the abuse began in 2000 when her oldest daughter was 6.
Stacy Thoman came under investigation as a participant and was arrested at Harrah's Tahoe where she works as a cocktail waitress on March 27.
She has been in custody in Douglas County Jail on $100,000 bail since her arrest.
According to reports, the crimes in Douglas County allegedly occurred from October 2004 until February 2008, while Thoman and her ex-husband lived on Granite Way in Topaz Ranch Estates, and continued after the family moved to Reno.
The victims, now 12 and 15 are in the custody of Child Protective Services.
Douglas County prosecutor Tom Gregory did not disclose what Stacy Thoman might plead to in District Court.
"She waived her preliminary hearing as an indication that she is accepting negotiations with Douglas County and Washoe County," Gregory said.
Kevan Thoman was not charged in Douglas County as part of his plea agreement.
Gregory said Kevan Thoman has pleaded guilty to attempted lewdness with a minor and attempted sexual assault with a minor.
The lewdness charge, a class A felony, carries a maximum of sentence of life in prison with possibility of parole after 10 years. The attempted sexual assault charge is a class B felony with a sentence of up to 20 years in prison.
