Lyndsay Mobey, then aged 34, of Downing Street, Bulwell—now known as Lynsey Partridge for her protection (Nottingham/Barry)—was sentenced to two years and one month’s imprisonment (25 months) at Nottingham Crown Court in 2023 after an international FBI investigation uncovered her sexual abuse of a child.
The inquiry was initiated after the Federal Bureau of Investigation placed a chatroom on the Kik messaging application under covert surveillance and detected video footage of a young child being sexually abused.
Investigating officers from the National Crime Agency and Nottinghamshire Police positively identified Mobey through a distinctive wrist tattoo visible on the video recording.
The court heard Mobey carried out the physical sexual assault while her partner, Christopher Binch, filmed the incident and shared it with other offenders online.
Defence counsel stated that Mobey had learning difficulties and an extremely low level of intellectual functioning, asserting that she acted at the behest of Binch to please him rather than for her own sexual gratification.
The child was safeguarded early in the investigation.
Two days before her trial was scheduled to commence, Mobey entered a formal guilty plea to:
- Sexual assault
Judge Mark Watson acknowledged that Mobey involved herself to please her partner and lacked the tools to say no, but emphasised the severe nature of the abuse against a young victim.
The judge handed down a custodial sentence of two years and one month’s imprisonment and ordered Mobey to remain on the Sex Offenders Register for five years.
Release Calculation: Under UK sentencing legislation governing sexual offences, Mobey was required to serve two-thirds (16.6 months / 1 year and 4 months) of her 25-month sentence in prison custody before becoming eligible for statutory release on licence, with the remaining 8.4 months served under community supervision.
