Timmy Duggan and the woman who sold him pictures of her children naked are both to remain indefinitely on a sex offenders register.
Duggan pleaded guilty to paying mothers to get access to their young sons and daughters for his sexual gratification.
He admitted twice sexually assaulting a young girl, encouraging mothers to produce and supply him with naked pictures and videos of their children, possession of “child pornography”, and engaging in a sex act with a mother in the presence of her young child.
A mother of three - who cannot be named - pleaded guilty to seven charges relating to the sexual exploitation of her children.
Judge Elva Duffy said Duggan had engaged in disturbed, depraved, and obscene conversations with a mother in relation to planning to access her child for his sexual gratification.
The judge said the mothers’ actions were a fundamental breach of trust and that instead of protecting their children they were offered up to Duggan for financial reward.
