A DEPRAVED woman live streamed footage of herself sexually abusing a young girl over three years.
Christine Callaghan, 33, was paid £2,285 by Dean Petley to carry out the sex abuse over Skype.
Callaghan admitted four child sexual abuse charges at Isleworth Crown Court and will be sentenced later.
Automotive engineer Petley, 30, admitted eleven charges last month and was jailed for eight years at the same court.
National Crime Agency officers discovered the offence during an investigation into Jodie Little, 30, who was jailed for more than 12 years in August for sexually abusing children online.
Little used online names Devin Bitch 666 and DomTabooSlut on an adult services website from her home in northern Cyprus.
That investigation led to new lines of inquiry and last October Petley, of Leamington Spa, Warks, was arrested as one of Little’s customers.
Online chat from his devices showed he asked Little to perform sex acts in front of young children and paid her to sexually abuse two victims.
An encrypted hard drive at his home then revealed screenshot conversations with Callaghan, of Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, over two years and her abusing a girl with Petley watching it.
The hard drive also had a ten minute long video of Callaghan abusing the young girl.
And screenshots showed that on at least ten occasions between 2016 and 2018 she performed penetrative sexual activity in front of the victim and also sexually abused her.

“They’re an example of what the NCA is seeing more and more with increasingly worsening cyber enabled child sexual offending.
“The NCA knows that the scale and severity of offending against children are worsening.”
