Sex Offender Jailed for Machete Incident and Exposure

A sex offender who ran into the street naked while brandishing a machete has been jailed.

Witnesses reported that Trevor Evans, 46, of Mendip Way, became aggressive after being asked to turn down music coming from his flat in Little Stanion near Corby on 15 December.

Evans pleaded guilty to possession of a knife and exposure with the intention of causing alarm or distress at Northampton Crown Court on 24 May. He was sentenced to 16 months in prison.

Northamptonshire Police said Evans discarded the machete in a plant pot, where it was later recovered by officers.

Evans had previously been given a three-year community order at Nottingham Crown Court on 6 November after being found guilty of sexual activity in the presence of a child.

PC Hayley Wollacott stated that the judge in Evans' previous case had made it clear that any further criminal activity or breach of his sentence conditions would result in imprisonment.

She described Evans' reaction to being asked to be more considerate of his neighbours as "the most extreme of ways."
