Man who sent '12-year-old girl' messages jailed
West Briton (Truro and Mid Cornwall)
|June 26, 2025
A YOUNG man who asked a child to touch herself and sent explicit sexual messages asking her if she was “all his” has been jailed.
Scott Ford, 22, thought he was speaking to a 12-year-old girl when he sent the sick messages.
Ford, of Green Lane in Redruth, appeared at Truro Crown Court for sentencing on Tuesday, June 10, having pleaded guilty to two charges, one of attempting to engage in sexual communications with a child and one of attempting to cause/incite a girl under 13 to engage in sexual activity.
Messages include those requesting she send nude images to him using an online platform. He had known her age the entire time but later discovered that the girl, who he thought was called Hannah, was actually an undercover police officer.
