Nursery Assistant Avoids Jail After Sitting on Twin Babies for Sick Fetish Videos
A former nursery assistant, Gemma McFee, was spared jail after being caught on video sitting on 16-month-old twins. She made the videos to cash in on a sick fetish request – all to fund a holiday.
Exploited and Naive, Says Judge
The 28-year-old was described by the sheriff as “naive” and “manipulated” by a man with a disturbing fetish for women sitting on babies. McFee sent seven video clips to Andrew Kerr, an RAF serviceman who recruited her through Facebook.
The clips showed her placing a cushion on the babies and sitting on them with “significant” pressure. The terrified twins were seen crying and struggling to breathe as she sat on them.

Prosecutor Kirsten Letford revealed Kerr posed as a film stuntman and initially paid McFee to stand on him for a supposed film. He then pushed her to sit on the babies, providing “detailed instructions” and paying her for the clips.
“From the conversation between them, she was a willing participant, for financial gain.” – Mrs Letford
On June 18, 2018, Kerr messaged: “You can do it on the floor but usually easier to start on the bed or sofa, that way you can apply your full weight.” He even suggested she smother the babies and sit on their heads.
Desperate for Cash, McFee Wept in Court
At the time, McFee was unemployed and struggling financially. Bank statements backed this up. She openly wept in court as the sick clips were shown. In one message, she admitted: “He really really didn’t like that last one. I’ll have to stop and give him a breather.”
She said she was making the videos to fund a holiday: “Yeah will do. I’m due a holiday so let’s see if I can make as much as possible.”
Community Service For Assaulting Twins
McFee, a mother-of-two from Barry, Angus, pleaded guilty to assaulting the twins at a house in Arbroath in June 2018. She was sentenced to 200 hours’ community service, an eight-month restriction of liberty order, and three years under social work supervision. She was also banned from having contact with any child under 17.
The case verdict was delayed from being reported until Kerr’s proceedings were resolved. Kerr, 35, pleaded guilty to inciting McFee and attempting to incite another woman to commit similar offences, as well as possessing child abuse images.
His sentence is pending after social workers review a psychosexual therapy report. Sheriff Jillian Martin-Brown judged that McFee’s non-custodial sentence would serve punishment, societal disapproval, and give her a chance for “effective rehabilitation.”
