Women accused of 'global monkey torture network'
A Worcestershire woman has pleaded guilty to being part of a global monkey torture network.
37-year-old Holly LeGresley from Kidderminster, was a participant in a private online group that was paying people in Indonesia to kill and torture baby monkeys on video.
She admitted charges of consuming, causing and facilitating the torture of baby monkeys over the internet.
Another woman, 55-year-old Adriana Orme from Upton Upon Severn, also appeared in court.
She chose not to enter a plea at this stage to charges of publishing an obscene article and for causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.
Her next appearance will be at Worcester Crown court on the 5th of June.
Our Midlands investigations reporter Nicola Goodwin has been following the case, and gave Kate Justice the following update.
