💨 Abstract

A man named Jay Lang, 24, from Canvey Island, Essex, posed as a 16-year-old girl on social media to blackmail young boys into sending indecent images. He would then use these images to blackmail the boys for more content or money. Lang targeted boys aged 11 to 16 and used a screen-recording app to save the images. Essex Police launched a large-scale investigation after a victim reported the abuse.
