Summary of Case:	"Charles James Dyer (aka David Beavan) was a co-defendant of Alan Hedgecock and Robert Mayers. All three men were convicted in February 2007 of conspiracy to commit rape of two underage girls they chatted with online. The men never did anything other than chat with the girls online. The three men were sentenced to indeterminate terms of imprisonment, with Dyer given an 11 year minimum because of a previous conviction. On November 26, 2007 the Criminal Court of Appeal for England and Wales quashed the conspiracy convictions of all three men on the grounds that they did nothing to further a conspiracy -- they simply chatted online."
