Little appeared before Isleworth Crown Court in London.

She admitted a number of offences including sexual activity with a boy under 13; three counts of distributing an indecent photograph/pseudo-photograph of a child; publishing an obscene article (describing child rape), publishing an advert (offering for sale videos of child sexual abuse); conspiracy to sexually assault a boy under 13 by touching; causing a child to engage in sexual activity; and sexually assaulting a girl under 13 by touching.

“We and UK police arrest around 450 child sex offenders a month and safeguard about 680 children a month.

“There is no greater priority for us than protecting children.

“Distance is no barrier to us.

“We did everything we could in this case using our investigators, international staff and child protection experts to stop Little’s offending.

“The NCA’s unique capabilities – which we deliver for the benefit of law enforcement across the UK - were vital in bringing this horrific offender to justice.”
