ALFIE FISHER, PETERBOROUGH SEX OFFENDER, JAILED AFTER BREACHING COURT ORDERS IN PETERBOROUGH AND SKEGNESS
In December 2018, a serious breach of court-imposed restrictions led to the incarceration of Alfie Fisher, a known sex offender from Peterborough.Fisher, aged 54 and residing at Brynmore, Bretton, Peterborough, was found to have violated multiple conditions set by the court, prompting a swift legal response.
Fisher voluntarily surrendered himself at Thorpe Wood Police Station on October 28 after becoming aware that law enforcement officials were actively seeking him.
His surrender followed revelations that he had engaged in relationships with two women, both of whom had children.
These relationships directly contravened the notification requirements stipulated under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, which aim to monitor and restrict the movements and associations of convicted sex offenders.
During police interviews, Fisher admitted that he had failed to notify authorities about his relationships, which had begun in January of that year.
He expressed a desire to lead a normal life, which he claimed motivated his decision to keep these relationships undisclosed.
However, his breaches extended beyond just relationships.
Fisher also confessed to going on holidays to Skegness and Devon in August without informing the police, actions he justified by stating that everyone deserved a holiday.
Notably, his trip to Devon was with a family who had known him for ten years but were unaware of his background and the legal restrictions he was under.
When questioned about his decision to travel without notification, Fisher explained that he liked Devon and did not want to risk being denied permission to visit.
His disregard for the legal requirements was further evidenced by his possession of bank cards without proper notification to authorities, constituting additional breaches of the court orders.
Fisher had previously admitted to four breaches of the Sex Offenders Register requirements during a prior hearing, highlighting a pattern of non-compliance.
The culmination of these violations resulted in a court appearance at Peterborough Crown Court on December 3, where Fisher was sentenced to 12 months in prison.
The judge’s decision underscored the seriousness of his breaches and the importance of adhering to court-mandated restrictions designed to protect the community from potential harm.
