US soldier put nude snaps of Brit girl online

- BY CHRISTOPHE­R BUCKTIN US Editor

A US military policeman who put nude pictures of a British schoolgirl online has been jailed for 15 years.

Christophe­r Fox first talked to the girl, then 12, on photo-sharing app Snapchat in August 2016.

The girl, who cannot be named, swapped naked pictures with Fox, 21.

He threatened to put her photos on the net unless she sent more. She refused.

Fox, based at Wheeler Army Airfield in Hawaii, then posted them online and they circulated at her school. Her family reported him. He admitted five charges including sexually exploiting a minor.

Judge J Michael Seabright told the court in Honolulu: “Saying his actions were wrong is a grave understate­ment.”
