Two women from Strafford are now awaiting trial for their role in allegedly helping to produce child pornography for nearly a decade.
Prosecutors say 40-year-old Mallory Bunch and 34-year-old Jessica Pickett were involved in a conspiracy to produce child pornography by sexually abusing children, alongside Mallory’s husband Thomas Bunch.
The report alleges the conspiracy took place between September of 2016 and May of 2024.
According to investigators, Bunch was in a polyamorous relationship with both women, prior to his passing earlier this year.
The five-count indictment accused Bunch and Pickett of sexually abusing two children for the purpose of producing child pornography, which included hundreds of photos and videos of the two children being abused.
The two women are also accused of distributing child pornography.
