A 40 year old woman in Sydney Australia has been jailed for at least three years for distributing child pornography.

When police raided the home of Suzanne McDonald they found over 2,000 images and 150 videos on her computer depicting the most vile child abuse available on the internet.

McDonald was using the illegal material to form relationships with men on the internet, she would meet men online and send them the images and videos of child rape claiming that she was the victim in them. At the time McDonald was abusing drugs heavily, and claims she wasn’t even aware the material was genuine and that they were actual images of real child abuse.

McDonald told the court she collected the material to use in conversation with men she met on online dating sites, and said she would pretend to be the children involved. One of the men she tried this with informed the police that she had sent him over 70 illegal images.

Justice Paul Conlon told the court that the material was some of the worst in existence, on a scale of one to ten the material rated easily between eight and ten. Ten being the most violent and depraved.

Justice Conlon said it was “horrific material of the worst kind” and one particularly brutal video showed a young girl fighting as a man dragged her into a bedroom, where she was then tied to a bed and sexually abused. Another image showed a baby being anally penetrated by a man, and one showed a girl performing a sex act on a dog.

He explained to the court that McDonald thought the material was just “harmless pictures” and were simply part of her role playing.

“She never thought her behaviour would amount to criminal behaviour and, because of the amount of drugs in her system, she never gave it a thought.” He said.
