Nan weeps as her and ex are jailed for Whatsapp plot to have sex with girl

A nan and her partner plotted for months in an attempt to get a teenager to have sex with both of them.

Amanda Bywater, 48, and Phillip Park, 37 both encouraged each other to have sex with the same girl in a series of messages sent between the pair on Whatsapp. Bywater and Park were both jailed today after a judge at Liverpool Crown Court told them he was sure they had the intention of having sex with the child.

Jonathan Rogers, prosecuting, said Bywater, from Widnes, and Park, from Leigh, met on a swingers' website and soon began messaging each other frequently throughout 2019.
