Downloading 11,000 indecent images of children.
Redhill, Surrey, RH1
A 32-year-old man from Redhill has been jailed for downloading more than 11,000 indecent images of children in a four-year period.
Andrew Sandrasagra gave his address to the court as Hartley Downs in Purley, but Surrey Police says he lived in Redhill at the time of the offences.
He tried to claim he could not have downloaded the images and changed information on his digital devices to try and deceive police.
However, he was convicted on June 18 of downloading 11,046 images after a trial at Guildford Crown Court ; 108 of the images were in category A, the most serious, while the majority - 10,892 - were in category C.
Sandrasagra was also convicted of attempting to pervert the course of justice in connection with his efforts to cover-up his crimes. Judge Rufus Taylor jailed him for 15 months on Monday (August 5).
Detective Inspector Martin Goodwin said: "This case sends a clear message that you cannot hide your illegal online activity. Sandrasagra claimed that he could not have downloaded the images and attempted to pervert the course of justice by changing information on his personal devices to back up his claims.
"Due to a thorough investigation by both the Paedophile Online Investigation Team and the Digital Forensic Team he was unable to dupe the court and claim his innocence.
"The forensic expertise of the teams working collaboratively has prevented further offending and protected vulnerable children from further harm.
"I hope that this sentence means that whilst in prison Sandrasagra now takes responsibility for his actions to access support and changes his behaviour to avoid future offending."
In addition to his prison sentence, Sandrasagra is subject to a 10-year sexual harm prevention order and must sign the sex offenders register for the next 10 years.
Ex-traffic controller sexually abused two boys in 1990s.
Upper College Ride, Camberley, Surrey, GU15
A former traffic controller from Camberley has been jailed for abusing two boys in the 1990s.
Peter Chiverton, now 53, of Upper College Ride, was sentenced to nine years and six months in prison on Monday (July 15) after he was convicted of abusing the boys on several occasions.
Passing sentence at Guildford Crown Court, Judge Peter Moss said the abuse had left one of his victims with "psychological issues" and the other with feelings of guilt that still affect him to this day.
Judge Moss explained Chiverton had "groomed" the two boys before sexually abusing them. In total, he was convicted of eight separate counts, including one of indecent assault "involving penetration", the judge said.
In mitigation, Chiverton's barrister, Sarah Read, told the court he was a man of previous good character who had worked for 23 years as a traffic controller before retiring due to ill health. One of his former colleagues, she said, described Chiverton as "a caring person; a shy chap whose heart is in the right place".
Ms Read added that he continued to live with health problems, including mobility difficulties, back pain and depression, particularly following the death of his mother and aunt.
Chiverton will serve half of his nine-and-a-half-year sentence in prison and will then be released on licence, during which time he can be recalled to prison if he commits further offences or breaches the terms of his parole.
He has also been made subject to a sexual harm prevention order and must sign the sex offenders' register indefinitely.
Paedophile abused girl as young as six.
Churchill Way Sunbury-on-Thames, TW16
A paedophile has been jailed for 11 years after he was convicted of sexually abusing a girl.
Richard Rowles, 42, of Churchill Way, Sunbury, began abusing his victim when she was just six years old and did so on repeated occasions.
The victim only came forward in October 2017, prompting a police investigation and Rowles' eventual conviction for multiple offences including sexual assaulting a girl under 13 and causing or inciting a girl under 13 to engage in sexual activity.
Detective Constable Sara McDowell, who investigated the case, said: "I would like to pay tribute to the victim for her bravery in not only coming forward in the first place, but then for re-living her ordeal when she gave evidence in court.
"I hope that the fact that Rowles has received a lengthy jail sentence can help her to move on with her life.
"Surrey Police takes all reports involving sexual offences extremely seriously and we would encourage anyone who believes they have been the victim of a similar offence to come forward."
Christopher Manley 56
Possessing extreme pornographic images and making indecent images of a child.
Possessing extreme pornographic images and making indecent images of a child.
Coleford Bridge Road, Mytchett, Camberley, Surrey, GU16
A convicted Mytchett paedophile was jailed again for viewing indecent images of children while on licence for similar offences.
Christopher Manley, of Coleford Bridge Road, used a monitored laptop and a tablet he had hidden from police to look at the images and message girls online.
The 50-year-old googled terms such as "chubby teens" but told police when they visited his home on June 1, 2018: "I was looking at porn but not children, I wasn't searching for that.
"I was looking for teen stuff but nothing younger than that."
He was jailed for three years at Guildford Crown Court in June after admitting to possessing extreme pornographic images, six counts of making indecent images of a child and breaching a sexual harm prevention order (SHPO).
The offences were racked up on two separate occasions, with the second offences being committed while Manley was under investigation for the first set.

Filmed raping and indecently assaulting a boy.
Ewell, Surrey, KT17 - KT19
The National Crime Agency (NCA) swooped on Fox after linking him to horrific footage of child sex abuse online. He was arrested on September 5, 2018 as NCA officers seized his laptop which contained a vast amount of abuse images and videos.
Some showed him raping and indecently assaulting a boy. Fox had posted the footage online for other paedophiles to view and other videos showed him abusing a girl.
The 26-year-old, from Ewell, denied posting the videos online but admitted attacking the children. He was jailed at Kingston Crown Court in March after admitting 19 offences, including seven counts of rape.
He also admitted possession of indecent images of children 4,743 category A images or videos (the most severe), 4,263 category B and 3,995 category C.

Repeatedly indecently assaulting a young girl after grooming her.
Repeatedly indecently assaulting a young girl after grooming her.
Burnt Oak Lane, Newdigate, Dorking, Surrey, RH5.
A man who spent months repeatedly indecently assaulting a young girl after grooming her has been jailed.
Clive Manning was found guilty at Lewes Crown Court on Monday, January 7, of 12 historic counts of indecent assault on the victim, who was under 10 at the time.
Manning, 54, of Burnt Oak Lane, Newdigate, lived in Crawley at the time of the offences.
After months of sexual abuse, he moved out of the area and a chance meeting with the victim led her to finally report it in October 2017.
He was arrested and charged, pleading not guilty to the allegations ahead of his trial. However a jury found him guilty. He was sentenced to 15 years in prison on Wednesday (January 16).
Detective Sergeant Martin Alchin-Gadd, of Sussex Police, said: "The victim was very brave to come forward after all this time.
"She has lived with the abuse she suffered as a child for a long time before deciding to come and speak to us. Now she has seen justice served.
"We will always take allegations of this nature seriously, regardless of how much time has passed since they happened, and a full investigation will take place. Wherever there is sufficient evidence, we will seek to bring offenders to justice."
Sexually abusing a 5-year-old girl.
Lowlands Drive, Stanwell, Staines-Upon-Thames, TW19
A 20-year-old man from Staines has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexual abusing a five-year-old girl.
Tyler Eastley, of Lowlands Drive, was convicted of assaulting a girl under 13 by penetration after a four-day trial at Guildford Crown Court in July 2018.
Passing sentence on Friday (November 2), Judge Alexia Durran described Eastley as "an immature young man" with a history of substance abuse who had engaged in "a degree of grooming" before assaulting his victim.
Reading a statement from the victim's mother, prosecuting barrister Allister Walker said of the victim: "She has become a different child since the incident."
The statement went on to describe the victim's changed behaviour, saying she had become afraid of men in hats and police cars, as she thought Eastley might be in the back of one.
"She felt guilty and that she was to blame," Mr Walker read.
Speaking after the trial, but before sentencing, the mother had already described how the family had struggled to come to terms with Eastley's actions.
She said: "We are devastated by what has happened.
"We feel it is very important for people to be made aware of what he has done to such a young child and we sincerely hope that this will never happen again.
Speaking in mitigation, defence barrister Rupert Hallowes said: "The fact of the matter is this defendant has had a wretched upbringing characterised by violent relationships and perpetual instability.
"He is a defendant who has never managed to form a stable relationship with anyone."
Mr Hallowes went on to say Eastley was "not a hopeless case by any stretch of the imagination" and that "he knows he must take his medicine now".
However, he added that Eastley could well serve his full sentence behind bars "if he doesn't take steps to address his offending".
Judge Durran said Eastley would spend a maximum of nine years in prison and a further period on licence, during which time he could be recalled to prison for any further offences, and that he would serve a minimum of four-and-a-half years before being considered for parole.
She also imposed a sexual harm prevention order, banning him from staying in the same house as or having unsupervised contact with girls under 16, unless their parents had been informed of his offending and consented, and said his name would be placed on the sex offenders register.

Greenhill Way, Farnham, Surrey, GU9
A rapist has complained that he is being ripped off when he buys olive oil and tins of tuna or mackerel fillets in jail after conducting a price comparison survey from his cell.
Adam Marchment, who was jailed for ten years in April last year for raping a 15-year-old girl and sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl, said he was sick of paying higher prices than people pay on the outside.
The 26-year-old carried out research from his cell at HMP Parkhurst on the Isle of Wight which now, along with HMP Albany is called HMP Isle of Wight even getting a family member on the outside to check prices online and at major supermarkets.
Adam Marchment, who was jailed for ten years in April last year for raping a 15-year-old girl and sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl, said he was sick of paying higher prices than people pay on the outside
The 26-year-old carried out research from his cell at HMP Parkhurst on the Isle of Wight. He got a family member on the outside to check prices online and at major supermarkets and compared the prices to those in his prisons canteen
He then compared the prices to how much items cost on the canteen list, which is supplied by DHL.
Writing in this months edition of prisoners magazine Inside Time, Marchment said: Like many others, I am really starting to get frustrated by HMPPS (Her Majestys Prison and Probation Service) responses to the many prisoners complaining about our privatised, over-priced canteen system.
The heavily-tattooed inmate said he tested claims made by prison chiefs that it was not allowed to charge over the market recommended retail price, adding: I tested this theory and had a family member outside do some checks.
On Princes.co.uk they state that the RRP for a tin of mackerel fillets in tomato sauce is 1.45, yet DHL sell them to us for 1.75.
I also had a comparison website checked and none of the top supermarkets had the same item priced at over 1.40.
In fact at most supermarkets you can get 4 tins for 5.
A bag of Nescafe coffee original 150g, is 2.99, yet DHL sells this item to us for 3.99.
The heavily-tattooed inmate said he tested claims made by prison chiefs that it was not allowed to charge over the market recommended retail price
Extra virgin olive oil is 1.99 for 500ml, but DHL sell us 250ml for the same price. Are you seeing the recurring pattern?
He added: DHL continue to rip us off and are getting away with it.
It is about time HMPPS stopped ignoring this situation and realise that prisoners have access to the outside world and will question the utter rubbish they try to feed us.
Marchment, of Farnham, Surrey, was jailed for ten years at Guildford Crown Court in April 2016 after admitting one count of sexual assault on a 14-year-old girl in September 2015 and was found guilty of raping a 15-year-old girl in July 2014.
The court heard how police launched a manhunt for the rapist in October 2014 after he breached his licence conditions.
Marchment was on the run for more than a month, and even taunted cops on social media, putting a video called Man on the Run on YouTube bragging about how officers couldnt catch him.
Marchment is serving a ten-year sentence at HMP Parkhurst (pictured) on the Isle of Wight which now, along with HMP Albany is called HMP Isle of Wight
Speaking on the video at the time wearing sunglasses and a hoodie he said: Hello everyone, Im Adam Marchment and as you all know I am a wanted man. I have now been on the run for 37 days.
Ive got a little message for Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire Police run run as fast as you can, you cant catch me Im the Marchment man.
He was caught soon after posting the video online.
Bosses at the HMPPS said that it was mindful of the need to provide value for money to the taxpayer in all our contracted services.
It said, however, in a response to criticism over canteen prices in Inside Time that all public sector prisons must operate a cost-neutral contract, at no cost to the public.
It stated that prisons must use the National Product List (NPL) in offering items to prisoners, and is not permitted to charge over the market recommended retail price for any of the products sold.
A Prison Service spokesperson said: Products sold through the prison canteen service are never higher than the manufacturers recommended retail price.

A gun smuggler who admitted he was “a bit of a paedophile”.
Cramhurst Lane, Witley, Godalming, Surrey, GU8
A gun smuggler who admitted he was a bit of a paedophile has been convicted of importing illegal firearms through the post.
A National Crime Agency probe found that Aaron Bishop, 39, took a delivery of guns with Martin Beard, 38, via the dark web.
A court heard that police searched Bishops house and found child pornography on a USB drive buried in his garden.
Bishop and Beard were convicted of importing firearms but a jury at Birmingham Crown Court cleared them of importing ammunition.
Bishop also admitted possessing indecent images of children and Beard admitted producing cannabis.
Mark Richards, 38, who delivered guns to the pair, was jailed for five years and four months.
Senior investigating officer Dawn Cartwright of NCAs border policing command, said: Richards used Beard and Bishop to accept the guns because he believed they were off law enforcements radar.
It has been a long wait to put these men before the court and we are very pleased with the jurys decision.
We will continue to target and pursue those supplying illegal guns regardless of how long it takes.
Bishop, of Andover Way, Aldershot, was jailed for four years and 10 months and Beard was sent to prison for four years and six months.
Richards, of Cramhurst Lane, Godalming, admitted conspiring to import prohibited Glock handguns and ammunition.
Convicted of sexually abusing three children under 10.
Merstam, Redhill, Surrey, RH1
Top judges have refused to increase the jail term of a Merstham man who blighted the lives of three children, despite claims the sentence was “unduly lenient”.
Neil Hunter Cameron, 57, committed sex attacks on two young girls and showed an adult film to a teenage boy, whilst talking to him about “manly urges”.
Cameron, of Albury Road, pleaded guilty to three counts of sexual assault on a child under 13 and causing a child to watch a sexual act.
He was jailed for JUST 20 months at Guildford Crown Court on March 18.
That sentence was attacked yesterday as nowhere near tough enough by lawyers representing the Attorney General, Jeremy Wright QC.
Three senior judges at London’s Appeal Court heard Cameron groped one girl and kissed another, whilst making suggestive comments.
He showed the boy part of an 18 certificate “arthouse” film, portraying a sex scene between adults, and talked euphemistically about sex.
One victim complained to her family about what had happened to her and the police became involved.
Cameron then walked into his local police station and confessed to other sex crimes, which had gone undiscovered for almost a decade.
Lawyers for the Attorney General argued that Cameron had got off far too lightly for what he did to multiple victims.
But Cameron’s legal team urged a merciful course, saying he was sorry and that his brother had killed himself last week.
Lord Justice Davis, sitting with Mr Justice Jay and Judge Neil Ford QC, described it as a “sad case”.
“He has not sought to minimise his conduct. His expressions of remorse and shame were undeniably genuine and sincere,” he added.
“There was the fact of the voluntary confession to the police of the offences committed some years ago.”
Refusing to increase the sentence, Lord Justice Davis said: “What good would it do for this offender to spend but a few more months in prison?
“It would do no good. We are not prepared to interfere with the sentence imposed in this case.”

Merstham man jailed for serious sexual offences against children.
A MERSTHAM man has been jailed for serious sexual offences against children.
Neil Cameron, 57, of Albury Road, appeared at Guildford Crown Court today and pleaded guilty to four offences which took place between 2006 and 2015.
These included three counts of sexual assault touching a child under 12 years old and one count of causing a child to watch or look at an image of sexual activity.
Cameron was also given a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) for 10 years and been placed on the Sex Offenders Register for 10 years.
Commenting after the sentencing, Detective Constable Jason Kelly of East Surrey Safeguarding Investigation Unit, said: “I am pleased that the custodial sentence will put this predatory man behind bars – I hope today’s court result will go some way to providing the victims with the strength to put these incidents behind them and move on with their lives.
“This outcome has been made possible thanks to their bravery and having the courage to come forward and report this man’s appalling behaviour.
“Any victim of a sexual offence is encouraged to come forward and report any similar incidents. Surrey Police has a dedicated team that specialises in investigating serious sexual offences and victims can be assured that their welfare will be our priority.”
Raped a sleeping woman.
Avondale, Ash Vale, Guildford, Surrey, GU12
A 27-year-old from Ash has been sentenced to five years in prison after being found guilty of rape.
Daniel Band had been on a night out in Aldershot when he met the victim with a friend on Saturday December 14 2013.
The three ended up at Bands house in Avondale, at about 3am on Sunday December 15, where they had more to drink and the court heard they all fell asleep on the sofa.
During the trial of Band, who denied one count of anal rape, prosecutor Christopher May told the jury at Guildford Crown Court on Monday February 8 that at one point in the evening the victim woke up and went outside for a cigarette.
Mr May told the court that when she came back from having a cigarette, the two men were asleep.
So she went back and sat on the sofa and fell back asleep herself, Mr May said.
There had been, the crown say, no suggestion of sexual talk or foreplay or anything like that prior to this.
The court heard the victims friend left the house, leaving her and the defendant in the living room.
