Chesterfield man jailed for explicit messages to underage teenage girl
He was first arrested after the messages were uncovered in July 2024.
A Chesterfield man who sent explicit messages to a teenage girl and demanded he send her naked photos has been jailed for 28 months.
29 year old Kaylam Prince, of Gloucester Road in Stonegravels, appeared on Friday (August 29) for sentencing at Derby Crown Court.
It's after he admitted to three charges against him: sexual communication with a child, and two counts of sexual activity with a child.
He was first arrested after the messages were uncovered in July 2024.
The judge also handed him a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and a 5 year restraining order.
PC Eloise Cooper, of Derbyshire Police, said: “Kaylam Prince knowingly began a sexual relationship with a child who was well below the age of consent.
“He encouraged her to send sexual images of herself and incited her into engaging in sexual activity.
“Throughout this case the victim, who is still a young girl, has shown real courage when speaking with officers and has provided key evidence which has helped to secure this conviction.
“Her family have also been extremely supportive of the investigation and have ensured that we have been able to do everything our power to ensure that Kaylam Prince is brought to justice.”
