June 2010 Mature student who downloaded child porn banned from accessing indecent images A MATURE student who downloaded child porn on a college computer was yesterday banned from accessing any online indecent images for five years. Robert James Kenneth May, 42, was spotted by staff at Coleg Llandrillo in Abergele surfing certain websites and acting “furtively”. They became suspicious, police were called in and he was arrested. Officers found May had 78 indecent images, including some of children in swimwear, on his computer’s pen drive. He told them he had been “stupid”. May, of Berthglyd, Abergele, admitted five counts of making indecent images of children on the campus between July 30, 2006, and March 11, 2009, at an earlier hearing. District Judge Andrew Shaw gave May a three-year supervision order and ordered him to pay £85 costs. The judge also imposed a five-year Sexual Offences Prevention Order under the Sexual Offences Act. Under it, May is prohibited from taking, making, possessing, distributing or downloading pornographic or indecent images. He is also prohibited from preventing police officers from accessing his digital media and computer equipment or any he uses and allowing the police to examine them. May is banned from installing software which could wipe material from computer equipment. The judge ordered the forfeiture and destruction of May’s Acerlaptop, integral memory stick and three pen drives.
