Man faked online profile to meet girl

A man who had sex with a 15-year-old girl he met after using a fake social media profile to chat with her online will be sentenced early next year.

Conor O’Keefe, aged 26, set up a profile as a teenage girl called ‘Julie’ on the website Tagged.com and started chatting with his teenage victim.

He later claimed he was ‘Julie’s’ older brother ‘Adam’ and persuaded the girl to get a taxi to his house in the early hours of the morning, where they had sex.
