January 2017 Coventry paedophile wore children’s clothes while performing sex acts with appalling child sex images A COVENTRY paedophile bizarrely wore children’s clothes while performing sex acts looking at appalling images he downloaded, which| included babies being sexually abused. Police found on his computer a staggering 14,300 indecent images of children. They also found the children’s clothes which James Bingley bizarrely wore during his perverted activities. Bingley was told by a judge at Warwick Crown Court that despite his ‘streaks of decency,’ he had to go to prison. Bingley (35) who lived with his vulnerable older brother in Cherrybrook Way, Bell Green, Coventry, was jailed for 18 months and ordered to register as a sex offender for ten years. He had pleaded guilty to three charges of making indecent images of children, three of distributing them, and one offence of possessing cannabis. Prosecutor Ian Speed said in August last year, acting on information, the police went to Bingley’s brother’s home. When they spoke to Bingley, who was his brother’s carer, he immediately accepted there were images on his computer, for which he was solely responsible. The computer was seized, and on it officers found images including many showing children being subjected to penetrative sex acts by adults. Judge Richard Griffith-Jones observed that the images had also been distributed through a file-sharing system on Bingley’s computer. Posecutor Ian Speed said: “In his favour, he was completely open throughout the interview, even concerning the worrying finding in his bedroom of clothes he had bought from a catalogue, children’s clothing he would wear”, while viewing the images. Judge Griffith-Jones, who said he accepted he had ‘streaks of decency,’ told Bingley: “These offences are very serious for reasons which you and everyone must understand. “Real children are abused horribly so these pictures can be presented for people’s sexual gratification, and you did this on a scale and for a period of time that makes a custodial sentence inevitable.”
