Former RAF sergeant, 60, revealed as transsexual named Foxy Roxy is jailed for offering kinky sex with boy
A transsexual former RAF sergeant has been jailed for eight months after he was discovered offering sex services with a 15-year-old boy.
Martin Shaxted, 60, who used the name Foxy Roxy, appeared at Canterbury Crown Court yesterday to admit a charge of keeping a brothel and three counts of making and showing 32 indecent images.
The court heard that police officers had raided his home in Cliftonville, Kent, in December 2010 and discovered the boy.

But the prosecution accepted that Shaxted believed the boy was 19, rather than his real age of 15 after he confessed to police.
The youngster also admitted smoking cannabis and taking 'legal highs and poppers' and engaging in sex.
Police who raided the home also found child abuse pictures on Shaxted’s computer and took away objects including sex toys.
During the hearing Oliver Saxby, prosecuting, told how Shaxted had advertised his services online

He admitted meeting the youngster at a bar but denied encouraging him to take part in sex with other men.
Diaries revealed his services had earned him annual totals of £5,620 in 2008, £5,180 during 2009 and £5,955 in 2010.
The court heard Shaxted was a former RAF sergeant but no details were given of his military records, apart from the fact he served for 23 years.
John O’Higgins, defending Shaxted, said: 'He became associated with a person who masqueraded as a much older person.
'He took up escort work five years ago. But he did not entice this young man into providing the services.
'He is not in the best of health and is now a recluse and is very embarrassed.'
Judge Adele Williams rejected a call from the defence to suspend the sentence because 'of the kind of experiences he could expect in prison'.
Judge Williams then sentenced him for eight months after telling him: 'The mischief here is this, that even though you believed him to be 19, he was in fact 15 at the time.
'You are 60 years old. You allowed a very young man to be providing these services. But I accept you did not exploit him'
Shaxted was also ordered to sign the Sex Offender’s Register.
