Karl Shuttleworth, 60, has been locked up for three years and banned for life from working with kids after a chilling child sex offence probe.
Shocking Charges and Guilty Plea
Shuttleworth, formerly of Poulshot Road, was admitted to trying to lure a young girl into sexual activity, attempting to get a child under 13 to view explicit images, arranging a child sex offence, and sexual communication with a child—all in December.
On February 23, Salisbury Crown Court sentenced him to three years behind bars.
Lifetime Ban & Hefty Costs
- Shuttleworth was slapped with a 10-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
- Ordered to pay £1,000 in CPS costs plus a £228 surcharge.
- Forever barred from working with children or vulnerable adults.
