Couple 'sold daughters into child porn ring'

Couple 'sold daughters into child porn ring'

Three young girls found with rotting teeth were allegedly sold to a pornography ring by their parents.

Allegations against Connie Sue McCall, 40, and her husband Ronnie Lee McCall claim the girls, aged 12, 15 and 17, were sold and forced to perform sex acts, the Huffington Post reported.

Another girl, four, was found with "several if not all of her teeth rotted" and has been taken into care by authorities in Johnson City, Tennessee.

The claims arose after the parents were being investigated for child neglect.

One of the girls had "both head and body lice, flea bites, ring worm and rotten teeth".

The true horror of the girls' alleged situation came to light when the girls were taken in for questioning, District Attorney Tony Clark said.

He said: "There was money that changed hands between the individuals that were taking pictures and the parents.

"The children said that they had been taken to various locations and performing sex acts with an adult.

"When you have parents allegedly making money off their kids through pornography and exploitation, even after 20 years, it's one of the worst cases I've ever seen."

A man linked to having sex with the girls has reportedly committed suicide, local media reports.
