| Red Rose Database
Cirencester Bromsgrove Child Sexual Abuser
In October 2015, a disturbing case emerged involving Nathan Green, a man with connections to both Bromsgrove and Cirencester, who was found guilty of possessing and distributing highly illegal images depicting child abuse. Despite the severity of his actions, Green was handed a suspended prison sentence, raising concerns about justice and the ongoing threat posed by such offenders.
Green, aged 25 at the time, was employed at a shop located within the Duke of Gloucester army barracks in South Cerney when police apprehended him. His arrest was the culmination of an investigation triggered by intelligence suggesting he was sharing paedophile images online. During the police operation, officers discovered that Green had been actively involved in the online child exploitation community under the alias 'Crazer49.' His profile explicitly stated, 'Young Incest Fun. Have child on the way. Will share,' revealing his disturbing intentions and mindset.
At the time of his arrest, Green's partner was pregnant with their child. As a direct consequence of his online activities and the explicit communications he engaged in, his newborn was taken into foster care immediately after birth. The police found a significant collection of illegal images on Green's computer hard drive, including 41 still images and two videos classified as the most severe Category A. Additionally, there were 62 images and two videos in Category B, along with 202 still images and two videos in Category C, indicating a wide range of illegal content.
Green was interviewed twice by law enforcement but chose not to comment on the charges or his actions. Prosecutor James Bromige detailed the extent of the evidence, highlighting chat logs where Green asked other paedophiles about their preferences for young children. In one exchange, he inquired, 'Do you like child?' and in another, he asked, 'Are you into young children?' These conversations underscored his active engagement in the online child abuse community.
Green admitted to possessing and distributing illegal images at the highest level of severity, Category A, as well as lesser categories B and C. Despite the gravity of his offenses, he maintained a previous good character and showed no remorse or willingness to assist authorities in identifying other involved individuals or the victims depicted in the images.
His defense, presented by Jonathan Lewis, included references from Green's family and partner, emphasizing their continued support despite his offending. The defense also noted that Green had been forthcoming about his perversions and was already participating in a sex offender treatment program. His partner and father had also undertaken courses aimed at helping him address his issues, which they attributed to feelings of loneliness and social isolation that had led him into this online community.
Judge Michael Harington addressed Green directly, condemning the nature of the images and the acts they represented. He described the images as 'revolting' and emphasized that such material is only produced through actual children being subjected to abuse. The judge acknowledged the seriousness of the offenses but decided to suspend Green's two-year prison sentence for 18 months, ordering him to complete a community sex offender group program and a 30-day rehabilitation activity. The court also imposed a ten-year registration on the sex offender register and a sexual harm prevention order to monitor his future conduct.
In conclusion, the case of Nathan Green highlights the ongoing dangers posed by individuals involved in online child exploitation. Despite the legal measures taken, questions remain about the adequacy of sentences and the effectiveness of rehabilitation efforts for offenders involved in such heinous crimes.
