A Stockton man was arrested at his partner's house after he lured “a schoolgirl" into a sexually explicit online chat.
-
Andrew Ford, 47, went into a chatroom for 13 to 19 year olds - and pretended he was 18.
He began talking to “Ava” who told him she was 12, and asked if “that was OK?" Ford replied that that “was fine” before asking for a photo of the girl.
