 A paedophile who targeted an 11-year-old on Facebook and was caught when the child’s parents posed as her online, was today beginning a jail sentence.

Thomas Gibbs was snared after the couple logged on as their daughter and discovered he was grooming her for sex.

The 52-year-old was yesterday handed a 16-month prison term by a judge at Oxford Crown Court.

Prosecutors said the family took matters into their own hands when they noticed their daughter was communicating with a stranger online.

Looking over her shoulder as she used her laptop, their suspicions were confirmed and they realised the mystery correspondent was posting “extremely concerning” messages.

Commenting on her profile picture, he told the girl he wanted to kiss her and wrote: “I really like you” and “I want to meet you”.

Jennifer Edwards, prosecuting, said the girl’s mother took the laptop and continued the conversation with Gibbs, pretending to be her daughter.

The family immediately alerted police but maintained contact with Gibbs over the internet.

Each time the concerned mother went online, she found Gibbs was there, ready to respond.

And when he later suggested a rendezvous on April 18, she agreed to meet him – still pretending to be her daughter.

Though Gibbs arrived for the meeting as planned, in Witney town centre at noon, the girl’s mother remained hidden so she could observe the stranger and note his appearance.

She did not contact him but arranged another meeting, the next time he was on Facebook.

This was organised for 7pm in Carterton, Oxfordshire, on April 30 and ended with his arrest.

Gibbs, from Witney, Oxfordshire, admitted two counts of meeting a child following sexual grooming and was ordered to sign the sex offenders’ register for at least five years.

Detective Constable Jon Capps, of Thames Valley Police, said the predator had travelled to both meetings with “the intention of committing a sexual offence” and despite knowing the girl’s age.

And he said Gibbs had specifically asked the girl not to tell her parents where she was going.

“It was only because the girl’s parents became alert to the danger that the situation did not escalate and he was prevented from meeting the girl again,” he said.

“This case highlights the dangers of children being approached on the internet and I would urge all parents to monitor as closely as possible, and as best they can, their children’s activity on the internet and report any suspicious activity.”

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Children are using the Internet to watch YouTube videos, connect with friends on social network sites and look up “sex” and “porn,” according to a study of the top Web searches by youngsters.

Symantec Corp identified the top 100 searches conducted between February and July through its family safety service OnlineFamily.Norton, which monitors children’s and teenager’s Internet use. It found the most popular search term was for YouTube, the video sharing website owned by Google, with Internet star, Fred Figglehorn, a fictional character whose YouTube videos are popular with children, coming ninth in the top searches….    Children use web to watch videos, look up sex: study| U.S.| Reuters

The search engine Google was the second most popular search term and Yahoo came seventh, while social network site Facebook ranked third and MySpace came fifth in the list…..But the words “sex” and “porn” also made it into the top 10, ranked numbers four and six respectively.

….California-based Symantec’s Internet safety advocate Marian Merritt said the list showed that parents needed to be aware what their children were doing online.

“It also helps identify “teachable moments” when parents should be talking with their kids about appropriate online behavior and other issues in their kids’ online lives,” she said in a statement.

The list was compiled after Symantec studied 3.5 million searches made by the OnlineFamily.Norton which lets parents see what children are searching and who they are talking to on instant messaging and what social networks they are using…..via Children use web to watch videos, look up sex: study| U.S.| Reuters.
