Daniel Rodriguez
Age: 36
Town: London
Convicted: 29/07/2016
Paedophile rapper who groomed schoolgirls on social media.
Paedophile rapper jailed for 16 years after grooming schoolgirls online.
Daniel Rodriguez, known as Grymey D, was sentenced to 16 years in prison for exploiting young girls. He used social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Blackberry Messenger to contact his victims, inviting them to his home where he filmed himself engaging in sexual acts with them.
The 28-year-old, from Hackney, north London, was found guilty of 15 counts of sexual offenses. Judge Joanna Greenberg QC stated that Rodriguez deliberately targeted young girls to fulfill "deviant sexual fantasies." In one instance, he filmed himself having sex with a 14-year-old girl who arrived at his home in her school uniform.
Judge Greenberg expressed that Rodriguez's actions clearly showed his attraction to young girls, and his expressions of remorse were deemed insincere. She emphasized the severity of child sexual exploitation and the significant risk Rodriguez poses to young girls.
An NSPCC spokesperson condemned Rodriguez's actions, calling them "appalling" and highlighting the dangers of online grooming by predators.
