She was jailed for five years after being convicted of sexual assault by penetration, sexual assault by touching and causing actual bodily harm, after a three-week trial at Wood Green Crown Court.

Detective Sergeant Myles Bossman, who led the investigation, called O’Neill a "highly dangerous individual".

"She subjected a young female to significant violence without any remorse for her actions," he said.
