In 2023, the Offender Database recorded that David Fulleylove, then 56, of Weddington Road, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, was jailed for 40 months for a series of predatory online offences. On appearing at Warwick Crown Court, Fulleylove admitted seven charges related to the grooming and exploitation of children. The court reported that the defendant used the pseudonym “Dangermouse69” to target victims as young as 12 years old.
The investigation established that Fulleylove operated on a popular online chat forum where he was explicitly informed of the children’s ages. Warwickshire Police reported that despite knowing his victims were under 16, he responded with comments such as “mmm nice” and “I like young girls.” The prosecution reported that he pressured a 14-year-old girl to send indecent images, exposed himself on camera to a 12-year-old girl, and sent explicit messages requesting that children perform sexual acts on themselves.
Judicial Findings and Investigative Detail
The court reported that a search of Fulleylove’s home on Weddington Road led to the seizure of multiple digital devices, including mobile phones and a computer. Warwick Crown Court heard that the defendant pleaded guilty to four counts of an adult attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child. The judge noted that the evidence from his “Dangermouse69” profile provided a clear record of his intentions and his disregard for the ages of the victims.
The judge noted that the 40-month sentence reflected the persistent and predatory nature of his communication. For his actions in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, Fulleylove also admitted to making indecent photographs of a child. The court heard that he had attempted to incite girls both under 13 and between 13 and 15 to engage in sexual activity, demonstrating a broad and dangerous range of targeting.

- Custodial Sentence: 40 months in prison.

Monitoring and Public Protection
Fulleylove is managed under Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements (MAPPA) by Warwickshire Police and the National Probation Service. Due to the “predatory” nature of his online grooming in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, his management is subject to the highest level of oversight by the Public Protection Unit.
As a member of the Sex Offenders Register, Fulleylove must comply with notification requirements regarding his residence for the rest of his life. Authorities state that his lifelong SHPO includes strict prohibitions on his use of social media and dating websites. Given reports of his recent activity on Facebook and other apps, any unsupervised digital access or failure to register these accounts constitutes a breach of his order.
