A 19-year-old man from Eastleigh in Hampshire has been sentenced to 28 months in prison after grooming a 14-year-old girl through the children's gaming platform Roblox.
Carlo Tritta was 18 when he first contacted his victim on the app. He built her trust gradually until she believed they were in a relationship. The grooming then moved across other platforms before shifting offline entirely. He began sending her gifts and takeaways at her family home in Manchester.
