The 210 victims of Lewis Edwards were all aged between 10 and 16 years old. The team that brought him to justice say they continue to investigate so they can identify all of his victims.
Lewis Edwards blackmailed young girls into sending him indecent images of themselves. For the vast majority of that time, he was a serving officer with South Wales Police. His 210 victims were all aged between 10 and 16 years old - and Edwards has now been handed a life sentence, with a minimum term of 12 years. The team who led the investigation into his crimes say there are many more victims they are yet to identify.
'As a police officer, there would be a position of trust as with anybody who holds such a position of responsibility. 'But anybody who deliberately targets vulnerable children is abusing some level of position and it's important that they're all brought to justice.' 'I have my GCSE tomorrow' During the three-day sentencing hearing, Cardiff Crown Court heard powerful testimony from some of Edwards's victims.
