GARETH BRADBURY, FORMER BEDWORTH AND KINGSWINFORD RESIDENT, JAILED FOR SENDING SEX TEXTS TO GIRL
Gareth Bradbury – also a special constable with Warwickshire Police – tried to coax a 14-year-old girl into having sex with him by sending sick text messages.
He started by sending messages complimenting her and saying he wanted to kiss her.
The messages grew more sexual, with Bradbury saying: ‘I want to undress you and touch you,’ ‘I want to have you in three positions,’ and ‘I am going to see you naked one day’.
He even sent the girl a topless picture of himself and another of the lower half of a man’s naked body.
Bradbury, formerly of Bedworth now Kingswinford, was arrested earlier this year.
He pleaded guilty to inciting the girl to engage in sexual activity but avoided immediate jail, receiving a three-year community sentence, three years supervision, and told to participate in a sex offender group work programme.
He was also ordered to pay £2,500 compensation to the victim.
During sentencing, the judge condemned Bradbury’s actions as predatory and manipulative, noting he acted in an overtly predatory way, with the intention to groom the girl for sexual intercourse.
