Record details
A sex offender who breached a sexual harm prevention order has been jailed.
Aaron Cane, of Furness Avenue, Blackpool, admitted four counts of breaching the order and two counts of failing to comply with notification requirements.
Lancashire Police said officers discovered Cane had breached the conditions of his order after a routine check. He was arrested and later charged with the offences.
The 39-year-old was jailed for four years at Preston Crown Court.
Cane's order stated he had to notify police of any address he stayed at or visited where a person under 18 would be living.
He also had to notify police of any other name or alias he may use, to retain the history of his internet use and to inform police of the passwords to his devices.
He is also not allowed to have supervised or unsupervised contact with children under 16, and to not create social media accounts without approval by police.
Det Sgt Kat Knock said:
"Cane had clear conditions of his order, which he was ordered to follow.
"He instead knowingly chose to breach them despite the consequences he knew he would face.
"These restrictions are there for a reason – to protect the public. They are not taken lightly, and anyone found to be breaching them will be brought before the courts."
