A SEX offender who had a collection of 101 indecent images of a child has been told he cannot delete his internet history.

He admitted three counts of possessing indecent images of children at Colchester Magistrates’ Court.
He was ordered to sign the sex offenders register for five years and was made the subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for the same period.
As part of the order, magistrates stated Barber cannot possess any device capable of accessing the internet unless it has the capacity to retain and display its browser history.
