Description
A man from Bradford has been jailed for 5 years after admitting to breaching a sexual harm prevention order and making indecent photographs of a child.
Bradley Ashton-Fearnley aged 50 of Manningham Lane also known as Trevor Emmett, pleaded guilty to seven counts of making an indecent photograph of a child and two counts of breaching a sexual harm prevention order at Bradford Crown Court on 21st May.
He was arrested in January of this year by officers from the Bradford District Public Protection Unit and all his devices were seized.
A number of indecent images were found on them along with communication between other people where he requested these images.
He plead guilty to all the charges and was sentenced to 5 years in jail, the sexual harm prevention order was made indefinite and he was ordered to pay £228 in costs.
Detective Constable Katie Jones of Bradford District’s Online Child Abuse Investigation Team said:
“Ashton-Fearnley is a prolific offender, he has a long history of offences involving illegal images of children and has persistently breached orders put in place to prevent his offending.
“We hope that this sentence will serve as a warning to others that offences of this nature are taken very seriously by West Yorkshire Police and anybody caught facilitating the abuse of children by looking at indecent images of anybody under the age of 18 can expect to face the consequences of their actions.”
