Perth Paedophile Avoids Jail Despite Possessing 18,000 Obscene Files

Darren Adams, also known as Derek Jones, has avoided jail for breaching a court order, despite possessing 18,000 obscene photos and videos and a self-written paedophile manifesto.

Adams, 52, argued that his "minority group" was being discriminated against, questioning why he should respect laws that don't respect him.

He had been placed on the sex offenders register following a police raid at his Midlothian home during the 2020 lockdown.

Last month, at Perth Sheriff Court, Adams admitted to violating his Sexual Offences Prevention Order when police found he was using an internet-capable Blu-Ray player at his home in Alyth.

The article concludes with a call for further investigation into the case and a demand for justice for victims of child abuse.
