Young mum jailed for sick child sex crimes
Nasty offences exposed
Nichole Pratt, 25, from Foster Crescent, Leominster, has been locked up for seven-and-a-half years. She pleaded guilty to abusing two children under 13. The sick incidents happened between October 2023 and August 2024.
Damning evidence sealed her fate
The vile crimes came to light after police got an anonymous tip-off. Officers found videos of Pratt sexually abusing the vulnerable youngsters on her phone and a USB stick. The footage included the most serious category A abuse material.
Although Pratt initially denied the offences, she caved under overwhelming evidence and changed her plea at a hearing in September 2024.
Crown prosecutor reacts
“This was a truly harrowing and disturbing case. Nichole Pratt systematically abused two vulnerable young children in what can only be described as the most serious form of sexual abuse,” said Angela Trafford from the Crown Prosecution Service.
“The children trusted her, but she showed a blatant disregard for that trust for her own gratification.”
“The sentence sends a clear message: police, prosecutors, and courts will not tolerate such crimes.”
Pratt also slapped with sexual harm prevention order
Alongside her prison sentence, Pratt was hit with a sexual harm prevention order to restrict her future contact with children.
