A SHOTTON ‘predator’ who was exposed live on the internet has been jailed.
David McCullough, 47, of Rowden Street in Shotton appeared at Mold Crown Court on December 17 for attempting to cause a child to look at images of sexual activity, distributing and making indecent photographs of a child and possessing extreme pornographic images.
The court heard how two members of a child activist group had set up an online trap for offenders who seek contact with children on social media for sexual purposes. These members posed as a 14-year-old and a nine-year-old.
In reference to the distribution offence, prosecution barrister Simon Mintz said a download of McCullough’s phone found he had been chatting to two unknown males.
