Offender Jailed for Breaching Sex Offender Register Requirements

A 34-year-old man, Robert Dooley, has been jailed for breaching the terms of the sex offender register. The register contains details of individuals convicted, cautioned, or released from prison for sexual offenses against children or adults.

The incident occurred in Warrington on June 24th, 2023. Dooley failed to comply with the notification requirements of the register by not registering his new address or disclosing that he was of no fixed abode.

Dooley, whose address was listed as no fixed abode but from the Widnes area, was subsequently charged with failing to comply with notification requirements. He admitted the breach when he appeared before Chester Magistrates Court.

Magistrates sentenced Dooley to 26 weeks in jail. They stated that the offense was serious enough to warrant a custodial sentence, particularly considering the defendant's disregard for court orders.
