Each of these defendants have been jailed for their crimes, after pleading guilty to sex offences including attempted sexual communication with a child, attempting to make a child watch a sexual act, attempting to engage in a sexual activity with a child, and attempting to cause a child to watch an image of sexual activity.

They all believed they were sending sexual messages to, or arranging to meet up with, real children; but they were, in reality, speaking to members of a so-called paedophile hunter group or undercover police officers posing as children.
