December 2016 MAN, 55, ADMITS HAVING INDECENT IMAGES OF CHILDREN ON HIS LAPTOP A man has admitted having indecent images of children on his laptop. John Greer, 55, appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court and admitted having the images in his possession between November 3, 2013, and April 7, 2015, at an address in Aberdeenshire. Fiscal Depute Jamie Dunbar told the court on April 7, 2015, police attended at Greer’s workplace. Greer gave permission for them to examine his laptop. When it was analysed, 21 indecent images and six videos were discovered Greer’s defence agent Laura Bell told the court at the time the offences were committed Greer’s marriage was “at the point of breaking”. She went on to say that he had been “drinking to excess” and “felt isolated”. She said: “He deeply regrets his involvement in this offence.” She added he accepted it was “abhorrent”. Sheriff Graham Buchanan told Greer, whose address was given in court papers as Kennishead Avenue, Glasgow, sentence would be deferred until February.
