The first arrest occurred on September 9, 2023, and a second on December 21, 2024, with a sentencing date set for August 15, 2025.
Recognition is given to Luna for her role in the initial arrest, and to COST, Fleetwood Enforcers UK, TOOK, and Children’s Voices for their contributions.
Charges included online grooming, inciting a child to carry out sexual acts, causing a child to view such acts, engaging in sexual communications with a minor, and attempting to obtain an indecent image of a child.
Poole was detained in September 2023 after communicating sexually with FEUK, the online child protection unit of Fleetwood Enforcers UK.
He pled not guilty in July 2024.
He then re-offended, leading to his re-arrest in December 2024 following evidence from the COST team.
He received a sentence of three and a half years in prison in August 2025, along with a 10-year SHPO and indefinite registration on the sex offender register.
The case involved the efforts of FEUK, COST, CV, and TOOK, with mentions of Manchester.
