Paedophile committed a string of sex offences
A paedophile from Kidderminster has been jailed over a string of sex offences.
Lee Greenhill, aged 46, of St Cecilia Close, was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to six separate offences.
They included attempting to engage in sexual communication with children, possessing indecent images of children and possession of images portraying sexual acts with an animal.
Greenhill was arrested on January 17 of this year after West Mercia Police received information he had engaged with two girls on the internet, both under 16.
During the conversations, Greenhill used photos of other young men and pretended that he was a rich businessman, West Mercia Police said.
He showed the children photos of luxury yachts and cars telling the children that he would take them on them.
The conversations included that Greenhill intended to have sexual intercourse with the children and included the sending of explicit pictures and videos to them. Following his arrest, examinations were carried out on all his devices, which provided further evidence.
Greenhill was charged on January 18, despite denying the offences during his police interview. He later pleaded guilty to:
-
Three counts of attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child
-
Possession of indecent images of children
-
Attempting to cause a child to look at images of sexual activity
-
Distributing an indecent photograph of a child
-
Possession of images portraying sexual acts with an animal
-
Breaching a sexual harm prevention order
