Prosecutor Kim Whittlestone presented evidence at Carlisle Crown Court describing how Ian Loxam, a 47-year-old former council worker, attempted to engage sexually with a person he believed was a 12-year-old girl through Snapchat, not realizing he was communicating with an undercover police officer. Loxam pleaded guilty to attempting to incite a child to engage in sexual activity and was sentenced to a suspended custodial term with community service and added to the Sex Offender Register.
