FRANCIS TURNER FROM BAMBER BRIDGE SENTENCED FOR ONLINE GROOMING OF SCHOOLGIRL
In February 2016, a disturbing case of online grooming resulted in the imprisonment of a 48-year-old man from Bamber Bridge, identified as Francis William Turner. Turner, who previously worked as a baker at the local Sainsbury's, was convicted of attempting to meet a minor under the age of 16 for sexual purposes after engaging in a series of online conversations with a 14-year-old girl.Over a span of three months, Turner systematically groomed the young girl through various digital communications. The court proceedings revealed that Turner had sent numerous sexually explicit and highly inappropriate messages to the teenager, demonstrating a clear intent to exploit her for sexual contact.
Following the conviction, Turner was sentenced to serve 18 months in prison. Additionally, he will be required to register as a sex offender, a measure that underscores the severity of his actions and aims to monitor his activities post-release. The case highlights the ongoing concerns about online grooming and the importance of vigilance in protecting minors from predators operating through digital platforms.
