The unnamed BBC presenter is now facing two sets of allegations.The first accusations were made by the parents of a young person, who approached The Sun newspaper.
They claimed the male presenter had first requested images in 2020, when the young person was 17, and that a series of payments were made over the years. They said there was"no truth" to the story in The Sun and that the front page article was"inappropriate", adding the mother and the young person are estranged.This afternoon, the BBC reported a second young person had made allegations against the presenter.
The new claims are that the presenter sent threatening messages to a young person who hinted they would reveal their identity online. It's not yet clear if there is any criminality involved, but Brunt says there is a potential crime of malicious communication. We don't yet know the details of what the messages contained. Media law consultant David Banks says the presenter facing a series of allegations will be"looking very carefully" at the information being reported.
