Grandmother 'abused five-month-old baby while boyfriend took pictures'

A woman sexually assaulted a five-month-old baby and allowed her boyfriend to take photographs on his mobile phone, a court heard today.
Tracy Dawber allegedly let convicted paedophile Colin Blanchard take the photos at her home in Southport, Merseyside, in August 2008 as she assaulted the baby on her sofa, Bristol Crown Court heard.
Dawber, 43, faces one count of sexually assaulting a child and five counts of permitting indecent photographs to be taken
The grandmother-of-two accepts she is in the photographs but denies all charges.
The jury was told that Blanchard, 39, had previously pleaded guilty to taking the photos.
David Morgan, prosecuting, told the jury that Dawber and Blanchard were in a relationship for about a year, ending in September 2008.
They had met either through social networking website Facebook or dating website Plenty of Fish, and then 'saw each other weekly'.
Mr Morgan said that, following a search of Blanchard's property in Rochdale in June 2009, a Hewlett Packard laptop computer was recovered. 'It revealed correspondence between Colin Blanchard and Tracy Dawber that related to a Facebook account. That same day, Blanchard was arrested at Manchester Airport.'
Another laptop was seized which revealed further Facebook correspondence between Blanchard and Dawber, Mr Morgan continued.
He told the jury that on June 11, 2009, a mobile phone was recovered from Blanchard's Volvo and indecent images of children were discovered. Ten were 'of interest' to the police. The first three showed Blanchard in his vehicle, the next five showed images of a young child, and the final two were of Dawber and Blanchard together.
Dawber was arrested on November 17, 2009, and denied ever touching a child, the jury heard.
Mr Morgan told the court that Dawber also owned a desktop computer, on which an expert found specific words relating to child abuse, including 'pre-teen' and 'Lolita', the jury heard. Mr Morgan said a file containing 40 to 50 stories about incest was also discovered.
The computer expert also found that an external hard-drive, named 'Colin', had been connected to Dawber's computer.
Mr Morgan said Dawber thought Blanchard was a 'sociable' person. He continued: 'She said she was disgusted when she heard on the news what he had been involved with.'
Mr Morgan said Dawber accepted she was the person with the child on her lap in the photographs.
He went on: 'Tracy Dawber and Colin Blanchard went much further than she is now prepared to accept.'
Mr Morgan said an expert determined that the photos must have been taken no more than 12in (30cm) away from the child and over a period of 64 seconds.

Dawber on trial.

A paedophile said in court today he was told what to do by his then girlfriend as the pair sexually assaulted and took photographs of a five-month-old baby.

Colin Blanchard said it was Tracy Dawber, 44, who took the lead in the abuse.

Dawber, formerly of Bedford Road, Southport, Merseyside, denies the assault and permitting Blanchard to take the five indecent pictures.

Blanchard, 40, formerly from Rochdale, Lancs, is in custody awaiting sentence after admitting his involvement in the alleged assault by Dawber.

He told the jury at Winchester Crown Court today that Dawber had lifted the child's clothes to show it had no nappy on and he said Dawber told him to look at the child and to take the photographs.

"I was quite passive in the whole thing. I was taking the photographs as instructed," he said.

"I took a photograph and she asked me to show it to her and then I took another and I showed it again and she repositioned the child accordingly."
[...]

During cross-examination by Deborah Gould, Blanchard admitted he was selfish and arrogant, that he lied to police and had tried to blame others.

He admitted he had been involved with many other woman including two named in court as Vanessa George and Tracy Lyons. (That disgusting case is here on D'D too)

He had also sent images of child sex to two unnamed women, he admitted to the jury.

He said before his arrest he had been living a "double life".
[...]

Earlier the jury heard Dawber admitted it was her holding the baby in the photographs but denied the alleged wrongdoing.

In interview Dawber told police she could not remember the pictures being taken, but Simon Morgan, prosecuting, told the jury the Nokia phone always flashed when it took the pictures.

He said some had been taken from only about 9in away on August 20 2008.

"The Crown say the defendant was able to see the phone being used," he said.
[...]

Officers found child pornography on her computer that was the same as that discovered on Blanchard's and search words on her machine linked to child porn such as "Lolita". A PDF file containing stories about incest was also found.

Disgusting. Does anyone know if she can be charged with having the stories on her pc or just for the photos? Is it illegal to read pornographic stories involving children being abused?

**Silvahalo** · October 6th, 2010, 12:54 PM

DV, I remember that case,

He admitted he had been involved with many other woman including two named in court as Vanessa George and Tracy Lyons. (That disgusting case is here on D'D too)

They are the most vile people, all of them look like genetically fuckedup pigs!

These people need to hang, they are completely, and utterly useless.

I hope that baby didn't sustain permanent damage....5 mo. my god.

Also, what is a lolita? I thought it was a loose woman but from reading this story I'm assuming it has a different meaning.. I'm too afraid to google it from work.

**Dakota Valkyrie** · October 6th, 2010, 01:12 PM

Lolita is a novel by Vladimir Nabokov, first written in English and published in 1955 in Paris, later translated by the author into Russian and published in 1958 in New York. The book is internationally famous for its innovative style and infamous for its controversial subject: the protagonist and unreliable narrator, middle-aged Humbert Humbert, who becomes obsessed and sexually involved with a 12-year-old girl named Dolores Haze.

After its publication, Nabokov's Lolita attained a classic status, becoming one of the best-known and most controversial examples of 20th century literature. The name "Lolita" has entered pop culture to describe a sexually precocious girl. The novel was adapted to film by Stanley Kubrick in 1962, and again in 1997 by Adrian Lyne.

Lolita is included on TIME's 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005. It is fourth on the Modern Library's 1998 list of the 100 Best Novels of the 20th century.

Didn't they refer to Amy Fisher as the Long Island Lolita?

**Dakota Valkyrie** · October 6th, 2010, 01:31 PM

Yep - she was 16 (I think) at the time and Joey Buttfucker was an older man. So the moniker worked.

Ahhh gotcha, I didn't realize she was so young. Makes sense....guess I should stop referring to trashy women as Lolitas then, making myself look all ig'nant 'n shit.

**Bohring** · October 6th, 2010, 01:49 PM

Can't they charge the bitch with attempted murder since sexually assaulting a child that young can cause grevious, life-threatening injuries? (work with me)

Sexual assault in the UK doesn't mean penetration. It's the "catch-all" sexual offense charge, where penetration didn't take place or (more usually) cannot be proved. Basically, there are three charges over here:

Rape (male assailant, penetration of pretty much any orifice with penis);
Assault By Penetration (male or female assailant, penetration of vagina or anus by anything other than a penis); and
Sexual Assault (male or female assailant, "sexually touching" without consent).

Vanessa George was originally charged with assault by penetration, but only pled to sexual assault, which means either they bought her story that she only made it look like penetration, or they thought there wasn't enough evidence to prove otherwise. This hambeast, however, seems to have held the baby while Colin Blanchard took photos - there's no suggestion she "assaulted" the baby in the common sense of the word. The assault would lie in the fact that the photos were taken for a sexual purpose and that the baby was too young to legally consent.

That movie was uncomfortable to watch.

These two make me want to vomit.

A community care worker was found guilty today of sexually assaulting a baby and allowing her boyfriend to take photographs of the abuse on his mobile phone.
[...]

Tracy Dawber was found guilty of one count of sexually assaulting a child and five counts of permitting indecent photographs of a child to be taken.

She had denied the charges but Blanchard told the court she had taken the lead in the abuse.

Dawber mouthed 'oh no' as the first guilty verdict was delivered by the foreman.

She then shook and wept as the other guilty verdicts were said in court.

The jury of six men and six women took just two hours to find her guilty.

Mr Justice Royce remanded Dawber in custody for pre-sentence reports.

He told her: 'These are serious offences. A custodial sentence of some length is inevitable.'
[...]

Dawber is the fifth member of Blanchard's paedophile ring to face justice.

This weekend I saw a store in the mall called "Lolitas" and it made me think about this thread. Although it was just a clothing/accessory store, I was too uncomfortable to go in.

They have had their jail sentences, at last. I've updated it in the Vanessa George thread, and included the link here too.
