REECE CANNON FROM SWINDON SENTENCED TO 14 WEEKS FOR COMMUNITY ORDER BREACHES

In February 2017, Reece Cannon, a 23-year-old sex offender from Galsworthy Close in Swindon, was sentenced to a 14-week prison term after he was found guilty of breaching his community order.

The incident came to light when a warrant was issued for his arrest due to his failure to attend court hearings, prompting his appearance before magistrates in Swindon.

Reece Cannon had previously been subject to a community order imposed in June of the previous year.

However, he failed to adhere to the conditions of this order by missing two scheduled appointments in November and December.

Additionally, he breached his curfew on three separate occasions, further demonstrating his non-compliance with the court's directives.

His legal troubles did not end there.

In May, Cannon appeared in court again, this time for allowing a girl under the age of 18 to stay with him over the Christmas period.

This act was deemed a violation of his legal obligations, and he was subsequently fined £120 for failing to notify authorities about the situation.

Ultimately, the magistrates decided that his repeated breaches warranted a custodial sentence, and Cannon was sentenced to 14 weeks in prison.

The court's decision underscores the seriousness with which such violations of court orders are treated, especially in cases involving sex offenders and minors.
