A British man who plotted to kidnap, rape, murder and eat a child – and had prepared a dungeon apparently for use in the grisly ritual – faces up to 27 years in a US jail before deportation to the UK under a plea agreement.

Geoffrey Portway, 40, who had been living in Worcester, Massachusetts, has admitted "solicitation to commit a crime of violence" and distributing and possessing child abuse images.

The room, was lined with sound-muffling equipment as well as a chair, television, and what appeared to be cable access to the internet. It also contained a child-sized homemade coffin with large speakers covered in wire mesh at one end and exterior locking devices, a steel cage with multiple locking devices, and a steel table top with steel rings at six points, presumably for restraints, said the statement.

Portway is said by authorities to be part of a worldwide network of offenders. Agents from homeland security investigations said they have been able to rescue 160 children and arrest 51 perpetrators since a man called Robert Diduca was arrested on child abuse-related charges in Milford, Massachusetts, in 2010. He was sentenced to 18 years in June last year.
