A McDonald’s employee thought he was speaking to a 14-year-old girl about cuddling, masturbation and her body.
He was actually talking with a police online child exploitation investigator, and will now be intensely supervised for a year.
Grant Aitken, 40, avoided registration as a sex offender at his sentencing in the Christchurch District Court on Tuesday.
He was charged with exposure of a young person to indecent material after a conversation with an undercover police investigator.
Aitken’s conversation with “Chantelle”, the investigator’s fictitious teenage persona, was detailed in an agreed summary of facts.
