Woman Charged With Child Sex Abuse
A 39-year-old woman has been charged with sexually abusing a child and taking and distributing an indecent image, following an investigation into paedophiles at a Plymouth nursery.
Tracy Lyons, from Portsmouth, has been remanded in custody until 18 January 2010 after appearing before South East Hampshire Magistrates' Court on Saturday.
The arrest follows the information gained from the police probing Colin Blanchard but they stress the charges do not directly relate to the abuse at Little Ted's nursery.
Vanessa George, Angela Allen and Blanchard will be sentenced at Bristol Crown Court next month for 37 child sex offences. The abuse in the nursery case had been recorded on mobile telephones and images were exchanged via e-mail and text.
A spokesman for Hampshire Constabulary said they will continue to work with Greater Manchester Police on the matter.
