An American kangaroo made videos of herself abusing a British child to send to her boyfriend pedophile, a UK court learned.
Paige Poole, who moved to London in 2018 to marry an Englishman, was heard laughing at some of the clips while abusing a one-year-old, DevonLive said.
She then sent videos and details of the WhatsApp abuse to her beloved husband, 44-year-old father Ross Kingsland, who called her his “Dark Angel” and wrote, “Make my black heart so happy.” point out the court on Tuesday.
Poole, 28, pleaded guilty in Exeter Crown Court to a large number of disturbing crimes, including 11 sexual assaults and taking and distributing indecent photos of a child, DevonLive said.
She and Kingsland also admitted to conspiring to rape another child.
Poole was sentenced to 17 years, the last four of which could be met in the community if she meets the rules set by the courts while in prison.
Kingsland was sentenced to 15 years, including the possibility of the past four years in the community, after pleading guilty to multiple crimes, including aiding and abetting a child’s sexual abuse and conspiracy to assault a child. .
Judge David Evans called them a “true gathering of evil minds.”
“The bald truth is that each of you is a morally corrupt pedophile, and it was the great misfortune of others that you encountered,” he said, according to DevonLive.
“You have deliberately and together caused the most terrible anguish to a good number of people. You have destroyed the lives of affected individuals and families, ”said Evans.
The couple was destroyed last summer when Kingsland was arrested after trying to negotiate to meet and mistreat two children, ages 8 and 12, with someone who was actually a covert agent.
During the exchange, Kingsland, who has a previous conviction for exposing two 12-year-old girls, shared a video of a woman abusing a child, DevonLive said.
Following his arrest, videos of Poole’s abuse were found on his phones.
“Kingsland and Poole are two very dangerous individuals who abused a child and brought misery to families,” Detective Inspector Si Costin told DevonLive.
“The only satisfaction we can get is that the two criminals will be in jail for a long time and they can’t hurt anyone else.”
The reports did not specify the original U.S. origin in Poole and British police did not immediately respond to requests for elaboration.
