Some of the indecent images of children which triggered the arrest of a 39-year-old nursery worker in Britain were taken inside the day care unit where she was employed, police said today.
Vanessa George (39) from Plymouth, was charged today with seven offences — two counts of sexual assault by penetration, two counts of sexual assault by touching, and three further counts — making, possessing and distributing indecent images of children.
At a press conference this afternoon, Devon and Cornwall Police confirmed their investigation was focused on the alleged exchange of material between George and Colin Blanchard (38) from Littleborough, near Rochdale.
Blanchard was yesterday charged with possession and distribution of indecent images.
Senior officers told the press this afternoon that they were currently looking at a "small number" of images on a camera phone, some of which they believed were taken inside the Little Ted's nursery in Laira, Plymouth.
