David Brown, a secondary school teacher in the area of Lytham St Annes in Lancashire, started abusing the girl — a pupil at his school — in July 2024, Lancashire Constabulary said. The force said Brown, 35, “brazenly groomed” the victim using his school email account, before beginning to message her on social media. He also communicated with her via video calls, including once when he was dressed just in his underwear. Lancashire Constabulary said after Brown kissed the girl in December 2025, his “campaign of sexual abuse” continued and he would drive the victim to secluded areas before engaging in sexual activity with her on some occasions. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2239498/paedophile-teacher-jailed-grooming-engaging ▫️Revealed: The rural Irish area where three convicted child abusers lived just minutes apart A small rural area in Co Monaghan has become the focus of a disturbing coincidence after an Irish Mirror investigation found that three convicted sex offenders have lived within just a few kilometres of each other. Sickos Joseph Johnson (72), Gerry Harte (73) and now deceased Christopher Mooney (60) were each convicted in separate cases involving sexual offences against children. Their crimes were unrelated, their cases were dealt with separately and there is no suggestion the men had any connection to one another. But an Irish Mirror investigation examining their past addresses has revealed that all three men lived within a four-kilometre radius around the Castleblayney area of Co Monaghan. https://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/crime/revealed-rural-irish-area-three-37497504    @ENDHUMANTRAFFICKING
