A man who tricked four teenage girls into sending him sexual images and videos by masquerading as a teenage boy online has been jailed for four-and-a-half years.

The 49-year-old Dubliner sexually exploited girls in the UK and the US, an unidentified girl with an Irish name and his own stepdaughter, collecting over around 2,000 videos of the children masturbating or in sexually explicit poses.
