This is the moment when paedophile John Sewell, who intended to instruct a schoolgirl in engaging in sexual activities with men, gets apprehended by paedophile hunters.
John Sewell believed he was conversing with a 14-year-old named Ellie when he mentioned that he had “instructed several timid virgins” previously.
He transmitted obscene videos and provided graphic descriptions before coordinating a meeting at a Metro station.
In fact John Sewell had been communicating with a decoy profile set up by vigilantes Geordie Chasers.
And when he turned up hoping to meet the youngster at Hebburn Metro Station last January, the paedophile hunters and police were waiting for him.
The now 33-year-old, John Sewell, of Dene Road, South Shields, was jailed in 2019 for two years and eight months.
