Gordon Frow, 37, whose address was given as c/o College Close in Lincoln, was jailed for two years after showing an indecent photograph of himself to a nine-year-old girl.
Lincoln Crown Court was told that the still photograph showed Frow performing a sex act.
The girl’s reaction was to cover her eyes and to tell him to get the photograph off the screen.

Anthony Hayward, 33, of Princess Street, Lincoln, was jailed for six years after pretending to be a female university student during online conversations and encouraging a 12-year-old boy to strip.
Hayward also admitted to taking 27 photographs of another young boy, whose mother told the court she believed her son’s “innocence had been taken away.”
The images were found after police executed a search warrant at Hayward’s then home in Woodhall Drive, Lincoln, during March last year.

As people prepare to go out more in the run up to Christmas, a Lincoln woman who created the globally renowned Ask For Angela not-for-profit scheme is proud to have made the county, and the world, a safer place.
The scheme, launched by Hayley Crawford (pictured above) in 2016, aims to ensure that anyone who is feeling vulnerable or unsafe is able to get the support they need. This could be on a night out, a date, meeting friends and other situations, and it is available to everyone of all genders to help them feel safer.
