'''Chantelle Johnson''' is an English teenage [[Korephilia|korephile]] who pretended to be a boy in order to sexually abuse young girls. 

This case is similar to other British cases like [[Gemma Barker]] and [[Sebastian Pritchard-Jones]], who were also cases of women pretending to be men in order to romance other women.

Johnson, 19 when convicted, was a footballer for Middlesbrough FC Ladies.<ref name=tele>[http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/05/19/female-footballer-posed-boy-trick-young-girls-sex-acts-court/ Female footballer who posed as boy to trick young girls into sex acts is jailed] - The Telegraph</ref> She used male personas to contact girls of 12 and 13 in 2015 and 2016.<ref name=necho>[http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/15297897.Former_Middlesbrough_Ladies_footballer_posed_as_a_young_boy_to_lure_underage_girls/ Former Middlesbrough Ladies footballer posed as a young boy to lure underage girls] - The Northern Echo</ref> Her address was Daleville Close, Beechwood, Middlesbrough.<ref name=glive/>

One victim was contacted by Johnson in 2015 when she was 12, the latter posing as a 13-year-old boy called Drew. Johnson sent flattering messages and arranged dates but stood the victim up, then presented her real self as a shoulder to cry on and then sexually abusing the trusting youngster between December 2015 and June 2016.<ref name=tele/>

A second victim was 13 when Johnson used her Drew identity to contact her via Instagram, also flattering her and forming a relationship. Johnson started sending sexual messages and said she wanted to insert her fingers into the victim, but the victim said she was too young for such things. They met up on several occasions with Johnson using a hoodie to disguise herself as she had long hair; they kissed intimately and Johnson put her hand down the girls' trousers during one meeting.<ref name=tele/>

A third victim, 12, sent Johnson pictures of herself in her underwear after being persuaded to do so by Johnson posing as a boy called Nathan.<ref name=tele/> Johnson also created fake personas for family members of Drew including his father,<ref name=necho/> inviting one victim to attend her eight-year-old sister's funeral.<ref name=glive>[http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/chantelle-johnson-warped-teen-could-13064810 Chantelle Johnson: Warped teen 'could have ruined her victim's childhoods'] - The Gazette live</ref> Johnson named her imaginary deceased sister Ellie Mae and met a victim dressed in black, saying he had been to the funeral.<ref name=necho/>
