Paedo Scots dwarf who dresses as Oompa Loompa for stag parties groomed underage girls & paid them for nude pics
A PERVERT dwarf who dressed as an Oompa Loompa for hen and stag groups has admitted harassing underage girls online and paying them to send him sexual images
Marc Corrieri, 33, groomed a string of teenagers over a six-year period after making contact through social media apps.
He repeatedly sent sexual messages and asked for indecent pictures and videos of them having sex with their boyfriends.
Corrieri, of Motherwell who stands at 4ft 2in, paid one girl £150 and another £40 to send images of themselves in states of undress to him.
He appeared from custody at Hamilton Sheriff Court and admitted to a total of 10 sexual offence charges involving six victims aged between 13 and 17.
He carried out the offences at his home between April 2019 and June 2025.
Depute fiscal Neil Thomson said Corrieri told his victims he had a fetish for tights and stockings as he harassed them to send pictures.
He said none of the victims were known to Corrieri and contact had been started by him on social media.
He said one girl was aged 14 when she was contacted by the sinister sex offender.
He added: “He sent requests to send images wearing tights and offered to pay for videos of her having sex with her boyfriend.
“She felt threatened and asked him to stop but he continued until she blocked him.”
The prosecutor told how another 14-year-old victim was contacted before he sent her £150 on PayPal.
He added: “He said he had a fetish for stockings and feet.”
Sentence on Corrieri was deferred until next month for background reports and he was remanded in custody.
Sheriff Kevin McCallum KC told him: “This is a very concerning set of circumstances with no obvious options other than a custodial sentence.”
Corrieri previously worked for an events firm and dressed as a £150-an-hour Oompa Loompa from Roald Dahl‘s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
However, he quit after he was previously caught pestering schoolgirls for sex.
He was ordered to perform 240 hours of unpaid work and put on the sex offenders’ register for three years in September 2014.
Earlier that year, Corrieri gave an interview about his job, detailing strict ground rules he imposed to preserve his dignity.
He said: “I get paid to go out and party with different lads.
“We get a lot of attention from the ladies and I get to enjoy myself. I dress up for them as Superman or as an Oompa Loompa but I draw the line at dressing up as a woman.”
His rules for the parties included no picking up or throwing him, no tampering with his drink, not saying ‘midget’ and no police involvement.
Ilkeston man jailed for sexual abuse of children
An Ilkeston man has been jailed for more than two decades for sexually abusing three children.
Ralph Fletcher, 35, of Barclay Court, Ilkeston was found guilty of 14 sexual offences against the children during a trial in May this year.
The offences included rape, assault by penetration, and sexual touching.
Ronald Fletcher, 37, of Welwyndale Road, Sutton Coldfield was also found guilty of two counts of sexual touching against one of the children, during the same trial.
A third defendant, Zoe Upchurch, 30, of Walpole Street, Derby was found guilty of four counts of child cruelty.
All three were sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court on 20 August.
Ralph Fletcher was jailed for 24 years, and Ronald Fletcher was jailed for five years.
The pair were also handed lifetime Sexual Harm Prevention Orders and will remain on the sex offenders register for life.
Upchurch was handed a three-year community order, with rehabilitation requirements.
All three were also given lifetime restraining orders in respect of the three children.
Detective Constable, Natalie Fletcher, officer in the case said:
“I want to thank the three victims in this case who have been unbelievably brave in telling us what happened to them.
“This courage, alongside the support of other witnesses, has meant that we have been able to seek justice and ensure that those responsible were held publicly accountable for their despicable crimes.
“The sentence handed to Ralph Fletcher who was the ringleader of this abuse, is telling of what a dangerous individual he is.
“Nothing can take away the trauma that Ralph and Ronald Fletcher, and Zoe Upchurch inflicted upon the victims, but I hope that they can go on to rebuild their lives in peace.”
Fresh jail sentence for serial child sex abuser
A former teacher who is already serving a 23-year prison sentence for child sex offences has been sentenced again for further historical child sex abuse.
Keith Lockwood was jailed in May 2024 after being convicted of 23 offences against boys under the age of 16 in the 1970s, 80s and 90s in the Kirklees area.
One of his victims, who travelled from North America to give evidence, had told the latest trial Lockwood was "solely responsible for taking my childhood away".
At the end of the trial in July, Lockwood, formerly of Park Lane, Keighley, was found guilty of one count of indecent assault committed between May 1979 and May 1981 against a victim aged 14 to 15.
He was also found guilty of three counts of indecent assault committed between March 1988 and March 1991 against a second victim who was aged 12 when Lockwood first abused him.
'Lived with trauma'
Speaking after sentencing, Det Con Gilly Hodds, of Kirklees District Police, commended the victims who had come forward.
"I would like to praise the courage and resilience of both victims, who are now in their 50s and 60s," she said.
"They have lived with the trauma of this abuse for decades and were then forced to relive their experiences during a trial because of Lockwood's refusal to accept responsibility.
"West Yorkshire Police remain committed to protecting the most vulnerable members of our communities and bringing offenders to justice."
Lockwood's name was already on the Sex Offenders Register and would remain so for life, a force spokesperson said.
