David Harvey confessed to raping a girl after law enforcement uncovered his disturbing dialogues with guys fantasising about the assault.
The paedophile groomed and subsequently molested the young child, instructing her: “Sometimes you must engage in activities you do not desire.”
The 59-year-old, David Harvey, thereafter communicated online with an individual, suggesting he might imitate his victim in perverse sexual games—addressing him by the girl’s name—while asserting that this was merely “role play.”
The paedophile entrepreneur, David Harvey, residing on Blackcap Walk in Birchwood, Warrington, was apprehended following the revelation of the abuse in June 2020.
David Harvey, lacking prior convictions, subsequently confessed to rape, three charges of sexual assault, and two counts of inducing a juvenile to participate in sexual behaviour.
He was classified as a “offender of particular concern” and sentenced to ten and a half years in prison, followed by an additional year on license.
