NEWS

A woman of a prominent Virginia family has been accused of distributing child pornography and attempting to sex traffic minors. The woman's ex-husband – who is a federal judge – has demanded that he get full custody of the couple's young daughters. 

Eleanor Hunton Hoppe of Charlottesville allegedly sent child porn to an undercover government agent. 

In February, Hoppe started chatting online with an undercover agent on an unnamed "fetish website," according to court documents. 

The mother of two is accused of sending the agent a 30-second video and three still images of young, underage girls being sexually abused by men.

Hoppe allegedly "verified" her identity by sending a photo of her partial face with herself giving thumbs with one of her breasts exposed.

During the reported month-long communication, she allegedly told the agent that she was interested in "taboo parenting."

The agent allegedly told Hoppe that he had an 8-year-old daughter. After hearing about the alleged sexual abuse the man had committed against his fictional daughter, Hoppe reportedly said that she wanted to cross state lines to meet the child at a hotel in Warrenton, Virginia.WRIC-TV reported, "Prior to the arranged date, Hoppe allegedly said that she would bring a pink silk robe for the child, sending a photograph and writing, 'Her big girl robe for tonight.'"According to the complaint, Hoppe told the undercover agent, "I can't wait and then of course, putting her to bed and waking her up to do a few extra things will be so fun."

Before the meetup, Hoppe allegedly wrote to the undercover agent, "If I were you, I'd start building up Thursday telling her that you know it's gonna be super fun we're gonna hang out with an old friend of yours."

On March 20, Hoppe allegedly went to the hotel to meet the undercover agent and was arrested. According to court documents, Hoppe told FBI agents that she arranged the meeting "in order to help [the agent’s] child."

Law enforcement reportedly found a pink silk robe inside Hoppe's car. 

The 45-year-old mother was charged with the distribution of child pornography and attempted child sex trafficking. If convicted, the child sex crime charges carry a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and up to life in prison.

On April 4, Hoppe pleaded not guilty to the two charges against her. 

Hoppe is a member of a prominent Virginia family. 

"She is the granddaughter of Eppa Hunton IV, who led Hunton and Williams, now Hunton Andrews Kurth, the second-largest law firm in the state," according to Axios.

The Daily Mail reported that Hoppe's ex-husband is a magistrate judge at United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia. Following the arrest of Eleanor, Joel Hoppe has reportedly demanded full custody of the former couple's two daughters, aged 10 and 12. 

During the divorce proceedings, the 46-year-old judge accused his wife of cheating and bringing a sexual partner to their marital home with their young daughters present. 

The mother reportedly worked in child advocacy.
