Pervert tried to move house without telling police after showing 'child' his naked body

A pervert who showed a '14-year-old girl' his naked body was jailed after breaching the terms of the Sex Offenders Register.

Richard Murray, 53, was spared jail in January 2021 after being snared by multiple paedophile hunter groups. Murray thought he had been sending obscene messages to a child and showed his naked body to a ‘14-year-old girl’, who was actually an adult, posing as the girl on Facebook.

At Liverpool Crown Court in January 2021, it was explained that Sharon Robson was posing as a 14-year-old girl called Jade Charles and "engaged in Facebook chats with the defendant". Murray had been charged with three counts of attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child.
