Summary:
David John Hughes, aged 36, from Belfast, was arrested after child abuse files were found on his computer. 932 Child abuse images and 51 video files were found. Aside from this, highly disturbing chatlogs in which he fantasized about killing children were found. He was sentenced to 5 years in prison and then 5 in license because the judge decided he posed a threat to children in the future. He will also have to sign the police sex offenders register for the rest of his life and have a Sexual Offences Prevention Order imposed. He is not allowed to have any device which can be connected to the internet, any contact with children without approval from social services, or get a job without approval from a risk manager.
Personal Opinion:
I did not even know that the judge could gie that kind of sentence. They can actually forbid you to have internet? I don’t know if that would help though, because the pervert might get so frustrated by not being able to have his fantasies on there that he might actually try to go and commit the real deal. I don’t think it was a harsh enough punishment, someone like that is clearly not mentally healthy, he should not be in society at all. He should have gotten life in prison.
