    ANDREW ROBERTS FROM CROMER ADMITS TO POSSESSING INDECENT CHILD IMAGES IN NORWICH COURT

    In November 2014, a man from Cromer, identified as Andrew Roberts, faced serious legal charges after admitting to possessing a significant number of indecent images of children. The case was heard at Norwich Crown Court, where it was revealed that Roberts had downloaded a total of 582 such images over a span of five years. The police investigation was initiated when authorities executed a search warrant at Roberts' residence on Salisbury Road in Cromer.

    During the search, law enforcement officials discovered the illicit images stored on Roberts' computer. The images were located within a specific folder on his device, prompting immediate concern and subsequent legal action. Prosecutor Chris Youell outlined that the majority of these images fell into the less serious category, as Roberts claimed his primary interest was in viewing 'naturist pictures' of underage individuals. Roberts admitted that he had been viewing these images over a period of five years, asserting that his actions were driven by curiosity rather than any sexual intent.

    Roberts, aged 50, explained to the court that he downloaded the images out of curiosity and did not believe his actions were illegal, citing the ease of access to such material online as a contributing factor. He further stated that he was unsure why he had engaged in this activity, indicating a lack of clear motive or understanding of the severity of his actions.

    In sentencing, Recorder Guy Ayers acknowledged Roberts' admission and the nature of his interest, noting that while most images were in the lower categories, there were a few more graphic images kept in the file. Roberts was sentenced to four months in jail, but the sentence was suspended for two years, allowing him to avoid immediate incarceration under certain conditions. Additionally, Roberts was placed on the sex offender’s register for a period of seven years and was subject to a sexual offences prevention order. This order requires him to permit police monitoring of his internet activity to prevent further offenses.

    During the hearing, Recorder Ayers emphasized the importance of rehabilitation and supervision, ordering Roberts to attend an internet sex offender’s treatment programme. The judge expressed hope that this intervention would help ensure that Roberts would not reoffend in the future. Roberts' legal representative, Andrew Oliver, defended his client by stating that most of the images fell into the lowest category of severity and that Roberts had been honest with police about his activities. Oliver stressed that Roberts had not distributed any of the images nor attempted to share them with others, asserting that his actions were solely for personal curiosity and self-interest.

    Overall, the case highlights the ongoing concerns surrounding the possession of indecent images of children and the measures courts are taking to address such offenses, including monitoring and mandatory treatment programs aimed at preventing future harm.
