A Florida mother, her son, and her boyfriend are facing numerous capital sex crime charges for allegedly live-streaming child sex abuse videos

The FBI said that Walquiria Cassini, 38, her son, Matthew, 20, and her boyfriend, Ryan Londono, 42, sexually assaulted two children for at least five years. The trio is accused of filming the abuse and live-streaming it on the internet for a paying audience.

A Boca Raton mother exonerated of child sex crimeshas now filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the detective who investigated the case and the Palm Beach County sheriff.
Walquiria Cassini, 40, was arrested in March 2024 along with her fiancé, Ryan Londono, and her then-20-year-old son Matthew. They faced allegations of sexually abusing Cassini's children and livestreaming the abuse for financial gain over five years.

"I cried instantly. I think I broke down to my mom, and I said, this is the worst thing that could ever happen to someone," said Cassini.
In October 2025, nearly two years after her arrest, the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office filed a dismissal document stating "new information brought to the state's attention" led to the decision to drop all charges.

"I love my children, I would never, ever hurt them. That did not happen in my home. I am innocent," Cassini said in an exclusive one-on-one interview with WPTV. "And the worst part is, you're just sitting in a courtroom just listening. You can't even just say object or stand up and say, Please. That's not how it went.
On March 5, 2026 — the second anniversary of the arrests — attorneys filed a federal civil rights lawsuit in the Southern District of Florida against Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office Detective Amy Hoffman and Sheriff Ric Bradshaw in his official capacity. The complaint alleges Hoffman conducted a "deeply flawed and constitutionally deficient investigation" that led to the wrongful arrests, and that Bradshaw, as the elected head of the agency, failed to implement adequate oversight policies.
Cassini and her attorneys, Mac Kenzie Sacks and Matthew Goldberger of South Florida Justice, say the sexual abuse allegations stemmed from a bitter custody dispute over Thanksgiving 2023.

Cassini said the father of her two children never returned them after the holiday, despite promising to do so.
Text messages WPTV obtained show Cassini messaging her ex-husband dozens of times on Nov. 26, asking where her children were and threatening to call the police. Her messages went unanswered until the next day, when she finally called 911.
Body camera footage from Nov. 27 showed Marion County deputies responding to her ex's home in Ocala after he reported the allegations. However, hours later, Palm Beach County deputies questioned his claims.

"It's possible that the kids are just lying about this because they want to stay with dad, because dad hasn't witnessed any of this," a Marion County deputy told Palm Beach County deputies in body camera footage. "This was reported to him two days ago, but he didn't call us until tonight. He's more concerned with keeping his kids than he is with the actual allegations."
The arresting Palm Beach County sheriff's detective, in the arrest affidavit, claimed to have found sex toys, suspicious payments and an adult website account tied to Cassini's IP address, with files deleted the day after the investigation began.

In court motions, Cassini's attorneys accused the detective of fabricating evidence, saying the website never had accounts linked to Cassini, the sex toys were unrelated, and the FBI found no child exploitation material on any of her 56 devices.
Cassini still doesn't have custody of her children, who remain with their father. According to the civil lawsuit, a permanent injunction was issued against her with respect to her children. She lost her job, friends and reputation during the nearly 2-year ordeal.

"I just want to be able to be a co-parent again. I always worry about the next step. And sometimes I worry if I fight too hard I may never see them again. But I still want to fight for them. Because I'm their mom," said Cassini.
"The charges were dismissed, but my fight is not over. I still cannot see my children. I am still fighting in court for the right to be their mother — a right that was stolen from me by the unconstitutional acts of a detective who lied and a Sheriff who looked away," Cassini said in a press release. "I filed this lawsuit because the law must mean something. I will not stop fighting until I am back in their lives and until every person responsible for what was done to this family is held accountable."

Attempts to reach the children's father for comment were unsuccessful.
