Sex Offender Caught With Illegal Content on Phone

Aaron Ryan, a sex offender subject to strict conduct requirements, was found in possession of pornography on his phone after causing a disturbance at a Tesco store in Montrose. Ryan's actions violated the terms of a seven-year sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) imposed in 2021, which prohibits him from possessing internet-capable devices without permission.

This incident highlights the importance of adhering to the conditions of SHPOs and demonstrates the ongoing efforts to monitor and manage the risk posed by sex offenders.
