My story on Tinder predator went live - then my phone rang him.

Christopher Harkins was jailed for 12 years after six years of victimising women.

He was a fraudster and rapist who had targeted 20 women in the UK .

He promised to give her the money back if she put a stop to the story - but didn't actually make a move to return the cash.

Christopher Harkins was found guilty of 19 offences including rape, assault, recording an intimate video without consent, threatening and abusive behaviour.

He also admitted defrauding nine women out of more than 214,000 .

The delays were intensely stressful to the women involved in the case but they were determined to see it through.

As he was handcuffed to be led to the cells, he turned to look at me in the gallery and said, 'This is because of you".
