A depraved sex beast who claimed being a paedophile didn’t bother him has been locked up.
Jordan Yardley was given an extended prison sentence of 39 months, which means he will serve 27 months in custody before being subject to 12 months post release supervision.
The 22-year-old was also told his name will remain on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely and he faces being returned to prison if he breaches any of the supervision conditions.
Yardley, from Livingston, West Lothian, was serving a community sentence and was already a registered sex offender when he started ‘grooming’ a person he thought was a 12-year-old girl on social media.
He was snared for the new offence after he sent indecent sexual messages to a decoy who was pretending to be an underage schoolgirl.
In reality his Facebook friend was actually a member of the paedophile vigilante group “Wolf Pack Hunters”.
When the decoy told Yardley online that she was only 12 he replied that ‘age was not an issue’.
He offered to take her to the woods and teach her how to kiss and told her he would ‘teach her about sex’ when she turned 13.
He gave the ‘youngster’ his mobile phone number during chats on Meet4U and WhatsApp and told her that his real name was Jordan and that he was 20-years-old.
He repeatedly asked her to send him naked pictures of herself, but the adult woman really conversing with him told him she couldn’t because her “little brother” had broken the phone’s camera.
He arranged to meet the youngster for sex but instead was confronted by members of the group who streamed the encounter live on the internet.
When he was quizzed on camera about his motives for meeting a young girl for sex Yardley confessed that being a paedophile “didn’t bother him’.
Livingston Sheriff Court was told Yardley’s previous conviction in 2016 was for possessing indecent images of children being sexually abused.
Andy Aitken, defending, said reports by social workers and a psychologist “alarmingly” assessed Yardley as being at high risk of reoffending.
He said: “Unless the root of his offending is treated he will continue to be a risk.”
He said medical experts believed Yardley had an autistic spectrum disorder or schizoid personality disorder, either of which significantly affected his ability to understand his offending and the level of risk he posed.
Passing sentence, Sheriff Peter Hammond told Yardley: “The factor not in dispute is that you do have a sexual interest in children which is persistent and appears to be escalating.
“The concern of the court must be to protect the public and deter others from behaving in the same way.
“In particular the court is concerned to protect young people from this kind of predatory and reprehensible behaviour.
“It is not clear you have an appreciation of remorse or any insight into your offending or its impact on those who could be affected by it.
“In all the circumstances I take the view that only a custodial sentence would be appropriate.”

Convicted sex offender who told paedo hunters it ‘doesn’t bother him’ that he is a paedophile
A convicted sex offender told paedophile hunters it ‘doesn’t bother him’ that he faces jail after he groomed a decoy he thought was a 12-year-old girl on social media.
Jordan Yardley, of Norman Rise, Livingston, West Lothian, was remanded in custody yesterday after he pleaded guilty to repeatedly sending indecent messages to a child for his sexual gratification.
A court heard that the decoy told him she was only 12 to which he replied that ‘age was not an issue’.
Yardely offered to take her to the woods and teach her how to kiss and told her he would ‘teach her about sex’ when she turned 13, Livingston Sheriff Court heard.
The 21-year-old told the ‘youngster’ during chats on Meet4U and WhatsApp that he was aged 20, told her his real name was Jordan, and gave her his mobile phone number.
Yardley showed no remorse when online peadophile hunters filmed the moment they quizzed him about his actions.
A man can be heard asking: ‘Why do you to feel remorse about talking about sex with a 12-year-old old girl?
‘You genuinely don’t care that you’re apeadophile? That you are going to go on the sex offenders register? That you might go to jail?’
To which Yardley shook his head and replied: ‘No. That doesn’t bother me.’
A court heard how Yardley would regularly ask the decoy to send him naked pictures of herself but she claimed that her little brother had broken the camera on her mobile phone.
Jim Robertson, prosecuting said: ‘The accused was keen that the conversations between himself and this profile remained secret and he said he didn’t want anything discussed with her friends or parents.
‘On one occasion he asked her: “Have you told any of your friends about me?” and she replied: “No because you said it was a secret”.’
He said the accused had told her not to tell her mum about conversations they had about him being her boyfriend, kissing and hugging him and being naked with him.
He revealed that Yardley had been snared by a group called Wolf Pack Hunters UK, which targets people who used social media to try to communicate with children under 16.
He said: ‘They appear to be a well-organised group with people playing roles such as decoys and administrative personnel.’
The group used an image of a young child provided by a member of the public who has already reached the age of 18 and has granted permission for their image to be used, the court heard.
‘In this case a lady in her capacity as a decoy used a profile she created of a 12-year-old girl on the chat application called which states that its users must be 18 or over.
‘But when she was contacted by anyone she was 12 as soon as there was communication.’
A court heard the 21-year-old paedophile was serving a community sentence for downloading indecent images – including hardcore pictures of bestiality (sex with animals) – when he committed the new offence.
He was also still on the sex offenders’ register as a result of the June 2016 conviction when he repeatedly contacted the person he thought was a schoolgirl called ‘Amy’ between 23 February and 3 March this year.
Yardley’s not guilty plea to attempting to meet a person aged under 16 in Livingston on 3 March with the intention of engaging in unlawful sexual behaviour was accepted by the prosecution.
Andy Aitken, defending, admitted there was a ‘significant element of public interest and public protection’ in the case but suggested that the risk Yardley posed could be better judged while he was still at liberty.
Sheriff Martin Edington disagreed and revoked Yardley’s bail.
He told the accused: ‘This is a serious charge, but the most serious aspect and the biggest aggravating factor is your previous conviction and the fact you were already under supervision and subject to the requirements of the (Sexual Offences) Act.
He added Yardley’s name to the sex offenders’ register for the second time and remanded him in custody until 24 December for background reports and an expert assessment of the risk he poses to members of the public.
