Worcester Crown Court heard that the 56-year-old played a major role in an online group that paid for baby monkeys to be taken from their mothers, then tortured, and killed, for pleasure.
Orme, from Upton Upon Severn, Worcestershire, was charged with publishing an obscene article and intentionally encouraging or assisting an offence, namely causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.
Ormes will be sentenced at Worcester Crown Court on 25 October, alongside another woman, Holly Le Gresley, 37, from Kidderminster, who also admitted being part of the group.
