EDINBURGH, Scotland, June 23 (UPI) — A Scottish woman has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for a “grievous breach of trust” — participating in the sexual exploitation of her daughter.

Caroline Dunsmore of Edinburgh pleaded guilty to the rape of her daughter, admitting that she participated with her husband, William King. King has since died.

A friend of King, John O’Flaherty, also received a 12-year sentence, The Scotsman reported. Another man, Morris Petch, who allegedly organized the pedophile activities, faces a possible life sentence.

Dana Fowley, Dunsmore’s daughter, ran out of the courtroom during the Friday sentencing hearing. She has allowed her name to be used in news accounts of the case.

“It was a justified sentence,” she said. “My whole life has been hell. Going through a trial has been hell and today has been hell.”

Fowley was sexually abused from the age of 6 to 15, while the defendants molested at least one other girl. Dunsmore’s father, William Dunsmore, who received a 5-year sentence last year, was also involved.
