Previously avoided custody is jailed for three years for having child porn.

A DEGANWY man, who had changed his name to hide his vile past, was caught with child pornography once again, including a video of a six-month-old baby being horrifically tortured, a judge said.

Owain Jones, 34, of Vardre Avenue, who had set up a weed control business, was jailed for three years after he admitted distributing an indecent image and possession of child porn.

Caernarfon Crown Court heard that 516 indecent images were recovered by officers, including original filth not on the police database.

Prosecuting barrister Sion ap Mihangel said: "The defendant admitted he was sexually aroused by indecent images of children. In 2007 he received a suspended sentence because of indecent images."

Jo Maxwell, defending, said Jones had changed his name and was keen to seek help for his behaviour.

Judge Timothy Petts said that in April 2018, police had seized computer equipment and found images of child abuse, some described in court in hideous detail so the full nature of his depravity could be seen. Images had been graphic and disgusting.

A ten-year sexual harm prevention order was made, and Jones must register as a sex offender indefinitely.
