Britain’s worst female paedo Vanessa George who abused 64 kids to be FREED as Parole Board rule she’s not a ‘significant risk’ to children

BRITAIN’s worst female paedophile Vanessa George has been granted parole - because she isn't a "significant risk" to children.

The monster, who was jailed for abusing 64 babies and sharing vile videos with her pervert lover, will be freed from jail in September.

A spokesperson for the Parole Board said: “The Parole Board has directed the release of Vanessa George, following a parole review that was concluded in July 2019.

“Parole Board decisions are solely focused on whether a prisoner would represent a significant risk to the public after release. The panel will have carefully looked at a whole range of evidence, including details of the original evidence and any evidence of behaviour change.

“This is done with great care and public safety is the number one priority.”

SICK PAEDO RING

Special needs coordinator Vanessa George took pictures on her phone of her abusing babies and toddlers at a nursery in Plymouth.

She was jailed in 2009 for a minimum of seven years.

Her trial heard she sent pictures to paedophile Colin Blanchard after meeting him on Facebook.

When arrested she did little to help identify the victims.

Blanchard, of Rochdale, said to be the “hub of the paedophile wheel”, was later jailed for a minimum of nine years.

He traded the photos to members of a paedophile ring, including prostitute Angela Allen, of Nottingham, who was jailed for at least five years.

The child abuser, from Plymouth, Devon, was jailed for a minimum of seven years in 2009 after taking pictures of herself harming up to 64 babies and toddlers at the Little Teds nursery.

She will be released in September but restrictions include a ban on going anywhere near Plymouth where the offences happened.

George has been housed at HMP Send near Guildford, Surrey, where she made a bid to be freed.

She had an oral hearing before a parole panel, before they determined she can be released.

'WORBOYS WORRY'

Her ex-husband Andrew had told friends he feared his former wife would "manipulate" the panel which decided her fate.

She had originally been expected to be freed in November - and blamed the outcry over black cab rapist John Worboys being granted freedom last year for the delay.

The Parole Board had agreed to release him from jail as he "no longer posed a risk to the public" - but were forced to overturn the move after a public outcry and a landmark legal challenge by his victims and The Sun.

He has since admitted to a string of further offences relating to four more women.

'PAEDO WHORE MUM'

It emerged last year that George has changed her name in prison, reverting to her maiden name of Vanessa Sylvia Marks.

She followed in the footsteps of Tracy Lyons - one of the four members of the paedophile ring led by George's online lover Colin Blanchard.

Lyons, who was jailed in 2011 for sending sickening child abuse pictures to Blanchard, changed her name after she was released just nine months later.

Mum-of-two George, whose two daughters have publicly disowned her, described herself to Blanchard as a "paedo whore mum" in vile exchanges between the two.

SICKENING ABUSE

George earned the grisly title of Britain's worst female paedo in 2009 after she was caged for taking 64 pictures of herself harming babies and toddlers.

The sickening abuse took place while she worked at the nursery in Plymouth - with pictures of the attacks sent to Blanchard.

She admitted to a total of seven sexual assaults of young children and six counts of distributing and making indecent pictures of children.

Blanchard's other online lover, ex-prostitute Angela Allen, was given the same sentence, while Tracy Dawber, who was in a year-long relationship with the paedo ringleader, was caged for four years for abusing a two-year-old boy and letting Blanchard film it.

Blanchard - described as "the hub of the paedophile wheel" at his sentencing - was given a minimum term of nine years in 2011.

Sentencing George, Mr Justice Royce said she had “plumbed new depths of depravity” and warned she may spend the rest of her life in prison.
