Mum's Vanessa George protest because nursery paedo won't name her victims

A mum who staged a protest outside the home of nursery paedophile Vanessa George has been warned off by police.

Carol Wheeler, 48, drove 150 miles to the bail hostel housing Britain’s worst female paedophile.

George photographed herself abusing children at the nursery where she worked, horrifying the nation with her depravity.

Last night Carol told the Sunday Mirror: “I’ve got friends directly affected by Vanessa George. It’s disgusting she’s out of prison when she won’t name all her victims.”

Carol unfurled a banner urging George to do that.

Officers are on the alert after details of George’s whereabouts were spread online. Pictures published last week showed her relaxing in the hostel garden.

Carol said: “When I saw pictures of her laughing in the sun it made my blood boil. I just wanted to wipe the smug look off her face.”

Carol, an unemployed former credit controller, said of her protest on Wednesday: “Police turned up in minutes.

I untied the banner and walked away, but they chased me down the road. They told me if I came back I’d be arrested.”

George, 49, jailed indefinitely in 2009 was told to serve a minimum seven years. She was freed from Bronzefield women’s prison in Ashford, Surrey, last month after showing “remorse” and banned from schools, pools, social media and dating sites.

Last night West Midlands Police said: “A member of the public was advised about their behaviour by officers on patrol.”
