A 26-year old Warrington man has been jailed for eight years after pleading guilty to inciting a child under 16 to engage in sexual activity.
David Loughhead (pictured), from Warrington, also pleaded guilty to nine breaches of his Sex Offenders’ Prevention Order when he appeared at Chester Crown Court.
The court heard how Loughhead had taken his victims on day trips and sent explicit messages to them via social media.
After the hearing, Constable Allan Wolff said: “Loughhead targeted vulnerable children and displayed no victim empathy at all. He was placed on the Sex Offenders Register 10 years ago and was issued with a Sex offenders’ Prevention Order of which he was fully aware of the conditions, yet chose to completely disregard them.
“Today’s sentencing has shown that Cheshire Police will do everything in their power to fully investigate cases of this nature and seek the strongest possible punishment for people who choose to commit them. The public can be reassured that sex offenders who break their conditions will be dealt with accordingly by the police, who will bring them to justice.”
Loughhead was under a Sex Offenders Prevention Order relating to offences back in 2004.
He received a four year custodial sentence and a four year extended sentence for inciting a child to engage in sexual activity and three years custodial sentence to run concurrent for breach of Sex Offenders’ Prevention Order.
Loughhead was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life and given a restraining order.
