A “predatory” transgender paedophile Naomi O’Brien has been imprisoned for encouraging a man to sexually assault a “vulnerable and innocent” small young boy.
Naomi O’Brien (31/01/1992) of Ashton-under-Lyne, Tameside, was found to have instructed a man from Wales to rape, torture and sexually assault the four-year-old in March 2023.
Manchester’s Minshull Street Crown Court sentenced the 31-year-old to just four years and three months after she was found guilty of five counts in another embarrassing travesty of justice.
Greater Manchester Police declared the youngster had gone through a “terrible ordeal”.
Using what the force claimed to be a “tenacious and lengthy investigation of 1,865 messages,” Naomi O’Brien’s crimes were shown to show her talks with the man were “not simply a case of role-play or fantasy”.
South Wales Police said in July “calculating and deviant” Jonathan Walker, of Pontsticill, Merthyr Tydfil, was sentenced to 13 years in jail for sexually abusing the 4-year-old along with engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child and possession of obscene photos.
Det Insp Zoe Marsden of GMP’s Online Child Abuse Investigation Team said Naomi O’Brien, of Ashton-under-Lyne, knew Walker had “an interest in sexually abusing a young boy on the direction of her”.
She was found guilty of three counts of purposefully encouraging and assisting another to commit a sexual assault against a child and two counts of purposefully encouraging and helping another to engage in sexual activity in the presence of a child.
Following her imprisonment, Naomi O’Brien was also put on the sex offenders registry for life and received a four-year, four-month sexual harm prevention order.
Det Insp Marsden said it was a “significant result” for this case and also “other children in the community who could have been subject to similar offending by a predatory female who was inciting others to commit acts of sexual harm”.
