Man charged over mother, child sex plot
A man from Sydney's northern beaches arranged online to meet a woman so he could have sex with her and her 13-year-old daughter, police allege.
They say sex crimes detectives were working undercover on an adult social networking site late last year when they discovered him in conversation with a woman and making sexually explicit and inappropriate comments.
It is alleged he arranged to meet the woman and her daughter so he could have sex with them both.
On Thursday morning, detectives arrested the 40-year-old at a cafe in Newtown, in Sydney's inner west. They also raided his home at Manly and another property at Coogee.
He has been charged with using a carriage service for child pornography and granted conditional bail to appear at Newtown Local Court in July.
Police say the investigation is ongoing.
