A dentist who bombarded a teenage girl with depraved sexual messages has failed to have his jail sentence cut. ‌

Steven MacMillan, 53, contacted the 13-year-old on social media and told her he was a dentist from Scotland. ‌

The pair began to chat and she told him her age before the conversation became highly sexualised . ‌

She sent him a picture before he began sending her a string of sickening voice notes between February and March 2023.

The disturbing messages were discovered by the girl's mother who contacted an online paedophile vigilante group . They confronted him at his home in Strathaven, Lanarkshire, and police were called in.

‌MacMillan appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court and admitted communicating indecently with the youngster.
