Macauley Webb was arrested in a supermarket car park after he travelled there to meet what he believed was a 12-year-old schoolboy.
The 24-year-old paedophile, from Newport, was caught in a police sting during which an undercover officer posed as a child under a fake profile.
He was arrested at Morrisons in Cwmbran after going to the car park to meet the ‘boy’ for the opportunity of having sex with him.
Webb was handed an eight-year extended jail sentence.
