By Abby Patkin, Boston.com, June 19, 2026:

A former New Hampshire state representative has been sentenced to more than 33 years in prison after she pleaded guilty to goading her former partner into taking sexually explicit photos of children at a Tyngsborough daycare.

Stacie-Marie Laughton, 42, spoke “extensively” in text messages in the spring of 2023 about “potential or fantasized sexual contact with kids,” federal prosecutors wrote in their sentencing memorandum. Laughton, New Hampshire’s first openly transgender elected official, pleaded guilty last fall to three counts of aiding and abetting the sexual exploitation of children.

Laughton’s former intimate partner, Lindsay Groves, 40, also pleaded guilty to taking and sending nude pictures of children at their workplace, Creative Minds Early Learning Center.

“The conduct at issue here is abhorrent,” prosecutors wrote in Laughton’s sentencing memo. “These were children who were not yet fully potty trained, not old enough to even go to the bathroom themselves, and not fully verbal. This was not a ‘crime of opportunity’ in the sense in which we typically think of that concept. This was planned, it was strategized, and it was carried out for the sexual gratification of one or both defendants in this case.”

Groves was sentenced to nearly 22 years in prison earlier this month.
