 Costi arranged to meet the girl at a train station |
A sex offender who was caught through an anti-paedophile website has been warned by a judge he faces a lengthy jail sentence. Lee Costi, 21, has appeared at Nottingham Crown Court where he admitted grooming schoolgirls for sex.
Costi, from Haslemere in Surrey, was caught when a Nottingham girl told her mother about his chatroom messages.
She contacted a police website known as the Virtual Global Taskforce who then tracked down his other victims.
The judge warned Costi he is facing a significant jail term after he pleaded guilty to charges.
Costi admitted meeting three girls, aged 13 and 14, following sexual grooming.
He also admitted three counts of sexual activity with a child, two counts of making indecent images and the possession of 41 indecent images of children.
The judge adjourned Costi's sentencing for psychiatric reports.
