A 17-year-old boy pleads guilty to engaging in a sexual act with a 12-year-old girl, according to court reports. The charges relate to sexual activity involving a child and are described as taking place when the accused was 15.
Court accounts cited by outlets say the boy had unrestricted access to digital devices. The reports indicate that this access is raised as part of the wider circumstances considered during the case, though the sources do not describe specific online content or the direct mechanism linking device use to the offence.
Both outlets focus on the guilty plea and the alleged age difference between the accused and the complainant. They also align on the detail that the court is told the teenager had broad access to devices, framing it as a factor brought up in proceedings.
