Emails she had supposedly been getting from a solicitor about The House buy were from Roberts.
The 'solicitor' also asked about her sexual history, suggested there were cameras in her flat which had recorded her being unfaithful.
Still pretending to be a lawyer, Roberts told her there were ongoing criminal proceedings against men who had sexually abused her.

" He exploited all my insecurities, " She Said .
Sentencing him to two years imprisonment, suspended for two years, Judge Niclas Parry said he accepted Carwyn Roberts struggled with his own " vulnerabilities" but said his behaviour had been " cruel and despicable".
