A man has been jailed after grooming a 14-year-old girl he met on the online gaming platform Roblox. Carlo Tritta, 19, confessed to multiple sexual crimes, among them the creation of sexually explicit images of a minor and participating in sexual communications with the young person. He was handed a 28-month prison term, as Roblox declared itself "saddened" and committed to implementing protective measures.
