A MAN HAS been jailed for 18 months for attempting to communicate with a child for the purpose of sexual exploitation four years ago in what a judge described as “grooming”.
Imposing sentence today, Judge Martin Nolan said Rogers’ actions were “very wrong” as he “believed he was going to meet a young child to make certain demands of them”. The judge noted that Rogers was involved in communication with a person he thought was a child aged around 11 or 12 years old. However, Rogers was actually speaking with individuals pretending to be a child.
“A person can attempt to do the impossible and be guilty of criminal behaviour,” he said, adding that he would impose a sentence on Rogers for his attempted behaviour. He said Roger’s behaviour could be characterised as “grooming a young child”.
