A fetishist who spoke of molesting what he thought was a 12-year-old girl has been jailed for four-and-a-half years.

“Loner” Mathew Carlsson spoke of using sex toys on the girl, which he termed magic wands, and said he would support her financially. He played out his sick fantasies on web chatrooms and in a call to the “girl” and her mother.

Jailing the Lyneham man for four years and six months, Judge Jason Taylor QC said: “In the conversations generally you sexualised the topics, you went into graphic detail, you taught this young girl, about the role of a dominant daddy, saying you would look after her, that would include financial support, but also reassuring her as to your intentions.”
