A pervert who preyed on teenage girls walked free from court after admitting to a string of child sex offences.
Kieran Keyworth, 20, preyed on nine teenage girls online between December 2019 and February 2021, sharing his vivid sexual fantasies about them and encouraging them to send him sexually explicit pictures of themselves. Five of the nine girls, aged between 13 and 15-years-old, were tracked down by police, while the other four were presumed to be "decoys" from online vigilantes.
He also gathered a large collection of child abuse images, including 39 serious Category A images.
