Paedophile posing as pupil admits abduction

When 19-year-old James Chester used a fake birth certificate to pose as a schoolboy, no one noticed for three weeks. He befriended 14-year-olds in his class, until social workers were alerted to his real age and he was expelled.

A year later, aged 20, he tried to get into another school but staff became suspicious when an adult who was not his parent phoned to vouch for him.

Last year Chester abducted a 13-year-old girl from Portsmouth, after visiting her family home while dressed in school uniform. A major police hunt which ended when the pair were found three days later in Northern Ireland.

This is the baby-faced paedophile who posed as a schoolboy to kidnap and have sex with a girl of 13.

James Chester, 22, duped teachers for weeks while sharing classes with teenagers.

The brute then wormed his way into the affections of his victim's family - fooling them he was an innocent 16-year-old.

He eventually abducted the girl for three days and sexually abused her before he was hunted down hundreds of miles away.
