The founder of a popular online group for Las Vegas moms is facing serious charges. Christiann Ault pleaded not guilty to charges of child abuse and lewdness for alleged incidents with a minor child. Ault allegedly had the child perform sexual acts on her body in her home for almost two years before the child revealed the abuse to someone else. She apparently told the child to keep the abuse quiet, sometimes threatening further abuse. Ault’s trial will start in 2026.
According to court documents KSNV obtained, Ault is accused of having a child rub their private area on her leg and chest âwith the intent of arousing, appealing to, or gratifying the lust, passions or sexual desires of defendant.â The paperwork also stated Ault verbally abused the child, and they were made âto feel unsafe and/or unloved and/or upset.â
Due to being a minor, KSNV did not disclose details about the child. Some outlets have said the child is currently 10 years old.
On July 15, 2025, the child testified in front of the grand jury. During their testimony, the child said the abuse happened once or twice a week in Aultâs bedroom apartment for nearly two years, ending in March 2024.
âMy legs were around her, and then she made me, and then a pillow was over her private areas, and then she had her hands like under the pillow,â the child said.
The child said that Ault was clothed during the encounter while the child âwas wearing underwear.â
âShe told me I could have iPad time if I do something, and I was, like, OK. And then it was making, she was wanting me to rub my private areas on her. I didn’t want to. It made me feel uncomfortable,â the child said.
Allegedly, the woman also locked the child in their room âbecause sheâs mad and she doesnât love or like me, she hates me,â the child said.
According to the child, Ault threatened that âsomething badâ would happen if they told anyone about the abuse, KLAS reported. When asked if she elaborated on what would happen, the child gave details.
âSpank me, yell at me, probably break my eardrums,â they said.
A video call between Ault and the child was played during the grand jury trial, and obtained by news outlets. In the video, she can be heard sharing fears with the child.
âIâm just scared Iâm gonna go to jail, to be honest with you, Iâm scared because you and I have always been best buds, and I miss you,â she said. âI need you to understand how serious, serious this is about the stuff that you said.â
She continued, telling the child, âI know youâre scared right now, and I know youâre confused. And none of this is your fault, baby. None of this, please.â She kept urging the child to tell the truth.
âBecause the truth, youâll never get in trouble for telling the truth, baby, but lies can get, can get people put in jail,â she said.
Ault was an administrator of the Las Vegas Super Moms Facebook group, which had nearly 30,000 members before it was deactivated. âYou would think this is someone you could trust,â group member Aryanna Scott told KNTV. âBut you donât really know whoâs behind these groups.â
Ault was charged with two counts of lewdness with a child and one count of child abuse or neglect. She posted a $50,000 bond on July 17, and pleaded not guilty on July 30. She will return to court for a jury trial on April 6, 2026.
