A man from Yaxley has been jailed for four-and-a-half years after pleading guilty to engaging in sexual communications with a child and inciting a girl to engage in sexual activity.
Mickey Boots, who's 28-years-old, added a 13-year-old girl from Lancashire on Snapchat claiming he was 17-years-old.
He also added her on Whatsapp and encouraged her to send inappropriate images of herself and to save his number as "daddy" in her phone.
Boots sent inappropriate images back and called her while touching himself.
A Cambridgeshire police spokesperson said: "Mickey Boots, of London Road, Yaxley, began speaking to the victim from Lancashire on 18 March 2023
"The conversations ended on 21 March 2023.
"The victim reported Boots to Lancashire Police and Cambridgeshire officers attended his home to arrest him and seize devices.
"In interview, Boots became agitated and accused officers of “antagonising” him when phone recordings of him speaking to the victim were played.
"On Monday (23rd June), at Peterborough Crown Court, Boots was jailed for four-and-a-half years. He was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register indefinitely."
Detective Inspector George Neal said: “Boots took advantage of the victim to send horrific photos and pressure her into sending photos of herself, which is absolutely vile.
"Abuse, such as this, can have lasting and serious implications for victims, especially children, so I’m glad that this sentence will deter others from committing such offences.”
