Description
A man has been jailed after he was convicted of nine child sexual offences.
John Davies, 45, from Stoke-on-Trent, was sentenced to 20-years behind bars at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court yesterday (Tuesday 27 May).
He pleaded guilty in May 2024 to attempting to engage in sexual communication with a child, distributing an indecent photograph of a child, three counts of making an indecent photograph of a child and three counts of breaching a sexual harm prevention order (SHPO). A jury later found him guilty of arranging / facilitating the commission of a child sex offence – rape / assault by penetration of a child under 13.
Our Public Protection Unit carried out an investigation after we received intelligence that Davies had breached a SHPO in April 2024.
