Pervert's bid to 'practise kissing' with 'girl aged 14'

A MAN arranged to meet a decoy posing as a 14-year-old girl to 'practise kissing' after sending her lewd videos.

John Dunbabbin had been speaking to somebody he believed was a child online, sending them increasingly vile messages.

He sent an explicit image of himself and asked her for intimate pictures and videos. Dunbabbin, from Salford, sent the 'child' a video of himself performing an indecent act.

Days later he arranged for them to meet, but instead was met by members of the Confronted and Caught group. He has since pleaded guilty to attempting to cause a child aged 13 to 15 to watch/look at an image of sexual activity; attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child; and attempting to meet a child following grooming.
