Back in 2018, the Offender Database reported that Jacinta Brooks, the Transgender Winchester Paedophile, was sentenced to 11 years in prison for impersonating a boy in an attempt to groom a girl.
Jacinta Brooks, 41, solicited indecent images from a 12-year-old girl, marking the third instance of her targeting minors.
Jacinta Brooks, who identifies as female and was once known as Duncan Smart, has already encountered legal proceedings for engaging in sexual relations with a minor and for child abuse.
The mother of the most recent victim stated that she would be tormented for the remainder of her life by ‘this contemptible individual’ and had been compelled to depart due to the profound anguish.
Judge Nicholas Rowland characterised Jacinta Brooks as a ‘threat to children’ at Southampton Crown Court.
Prosecutor Berenice Mulvanny stated that law enforcement discovered screenshots of the dialogue with the girl, in addition to several images depicting child exploitation.
Jacinta Brooks refrained from commenting during a police interview but conceded that she ‘couldn’t dispute’ her attraction to children.
Miss Mulvanny stated: ‘Jacinta Brooks was aware that the girl was underage yet transmitted her sexual communications.’ The defendant initially claimed to be a 14-year-old boy but subsequently confessed to her actual age.
The court was informed that Jacinta Brooks’ victim was compelled to withdraw from school and was experiencing trauma following the event. In a victim impact statement, the girl’s mother expressed, ‘The inability to shield my daughter from this contemptible individual will torment me always.’
Jacinta Brooks, from Winchester, Hampshire, confessed to three charges of enticing a minor to participate in sexual activity and three charges of possessing obscene pictures.
Jacinta Brooks was freed from incarceration two years ago, having completed nearly 13 years for assaulting a child under the age of 16 in 2003.
Judge Rowland mandated that Jacinta Brooks must inform the police of any future social media and email account creations and must provide the officers with the corresponding passwords.
Jacinta Brooks’s attorney, Robert Harding, asserted that significant changes had occurred during his client’s incarceration, and she had found it challenging to comprehend social media and internet networking.
