A domestic dispute in Polk County, Florida, in September 2026 led to the arrest of a mother, Christina Clemens, 46, and her son, Shane Clemens, 22, on incest charges. Authorities were called to their home after Christina accused Shane of hitting her.

During the investigation, Shane Clemens reportedly told deputies that he had been in a sexual relationship with his mother since he was 18 years old. When questioned, Christina Clemens allegedly confirmed the relationship, stating they had engaged in sexual activity “only about 100 times.”

Christina Clemens’ husband, who was reportedly unaware of the alleged incestuous relationship, told investigators he had found it suspicious that his wife and son would frequently go into the master bedroom and lock the door.

Both Christina and Shane Clemens were charged with incest. Christina Clemens also faces an additional charge of living in open adultery. In Florida, incest is classified as a third-degree felony, which can carry penalties of up to five years in prison, a $5,000 fine, or both. The law prohibits sexual activity between individuals closely related by blood, including parents and children.
