Mother in Camarines Sur Arrested for Pimping Her Underage Children Online
A mother in Camarines Sur was arrested after allegedly forcing her six underage children to perform indecent acts online.
Authorities from the National Bureau of Investigation – Violence Against Women and Children Division (NBI-VAWCD) received information about a woman who was producing and selling explicit content over the internet to foreign viewers.
According to the NBI, the children revealed that since 2024, their mother had been making them participate in live online shows. The shows involved the children undressing and performing inappropriate acts, sometimes with their mother also involved. These sessions were broadcast to paying clients abroad.
“Pinaghuhubad, live na nag-huhubadan silang magkakapatid kasama ‘yung nanay, Based din sa mga disclosures ng mga bata, 2024 pa daw sila ginagamit ng kanilang ina para ibenta online sa mga foreigners,” NBI-VAWCD chief Atty. Yehlen Agus said.
During an entrapment operation, the woman was caught in the act while preparing to go live. Following her arrest, authorities served a warrant and seized five mobile phones containing explicit photos and videos of her children.
It was discovered that the suspect earned about $100, or roughly P6,000, per show. Both parents were unemployed, and the mother allegedly turned to this abusive setup as their source of income.
Among the rescued children was a two-year-old boy, who is also being examined for possible abuse.
The impact on the children goes beyond physical harm. Authorities say this kind of abuse causes psychological trauma. Content uploaded online can spread uncontrollably, and the emotional scars can last a lifetime.
The mother now faces several serious charges, with no option for bail. All six children have been rescued and are now under the care of social workers, where they are receiving support, counseling, and protection.
Investigations are still ongoing to uncover the full extent of the exploitation and ensure that the children are safe from further harm.
