Nursery worker in UK and 2 others plead guilty to sex abuse
A female nursery worker and two co-defendants admitted a catalogue of child sex abuse offences yesterday, which police said included "some of the most evil acts imaginable."
Vanessa George, Angela Allen and Colin Blanchard, all aged 39, pleaded guilty to a string of charges of assault and making indecent images.
After meeting online in 2008, they exchanged thousands of messages via their phones and computers, some of which contained extreme and explicit images of child abuse, which one investigating officer described as "truly defying belief".

All three defendants told police they met through Facebook, and then went on to exchange images via texts and e-mails.
George, a married mother of two, who worked at Little Ted's day care unit in Plymouth, admitted seven sexual assaults and six counts of distributing and making indecent pictures of children.
Blanchard was the instigator of the abuse. "Blanchard's sick fantasies were the catalyst for a chain of events that led to the abuse of innocent children on a truly shocking scale," said a policeman.
The three recorded the abuse on their mobile phones and then exchanged the pictures via email, never actually meeting in person.
