A mother has been jailed for having sex with her 12-year-old son – while her partner watched and directed her over a webcam.<\/p>\n
The woman wore headphones as she abused the boy in her bedroom as her lover viewed online from abroad.<\/p>\n
The boy told police how he could hear his 39-year-old mother being told what to do as she gave him a ‘sex lesson’.<\/p>\n
The offence came to light when the woman ‘blurted out’ that she had abused the older of her two sons while speaking to a domestic abuse charity about her partner.<\/p>\n
A court heard that her ‘highly destructive’ partner had so far escaped justice.<\/p>\n
The woman, who cannot be named to protect her son, was jailed for three years and three months at Bristol Crown Court.<\/p>\n
Judge Michael Longman told her: ‘Your behaviour towards your son was contrary to human instincts and basic decency.<\/p>\n
‘It occurred after you met a man who clearly was controlling and over-bearing; a man who, it is also clear, should be prosecuted himself but is outside the jurisdiction and beyond the reach of this investigation.<\/p>\n
‘Even though he was at a distance from you, he continued to exert that influence, but you continued to behave towards your son in a way which, despite that pressure, your own instincts should have prevented.’<\/p>\n
The court heard that the boy was just 11 or 12 when the abuse took place.<\/p>\n
It came to light when his mother made a complaint at Next Link Domestic Abuse Services in Bristol.<\/p>\n
Her confession was passed on to Avon and Somerset police and she was taken in for questioning, and the boy was interviewed.<\/p>\n
Prosecuting, Mark Hollier said: ‘In a very ordinary voice, he described an incident to the police officers about how his mother had given him a sex lesson in the main bedroom of the family home and this was observed by [the partner] via a webcam and computer link.’<\/p>\n
The mother – who cried through much of the hearing – denied ‘volunteering’ to have sex with her son.<\/p>\n
She was charged with engaging in penetrative sexual activity with a boy under 13 which she admitted.<\/p>\n
The court heard that her two sons were taken into care by social services and are now living with a foster family.<\/p>\n
The abusive partner is still abroad and police are liaising with authorities in that country – which can’t be named for legal reasons – to bring him to justice.<\/p>\n
Defending, Fiona Elder, said it was an ‘extremely unusual’ case and the mother was acting on instructions from her ‘highly destructive’ partner.<\/p>\n
She added: ‘She’s absolutely devastated by the loss of the children and what she has done.’<\/p>\n
A psychiatric report found the woman had a personality disorder which made her susceptible to being in abusive relationships and would become dependent on abusive partners.<\/p>\n
Judge Longman imposed a Sexual Offences Prevention Order and ordered the woman to sign the Sex Offenders’ Register indefinitely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
