Extreme Child Pornography Found in Northern Ireland and Scotland

A Belfast, Northern Ireland school caretaker who was caught with almost 1,000 indecent images and videos of children has been jailed for nine months.

Mark Moan pleaded guilty to 14 counts of making indecent indecent images and seven charges of possessing extreme pornographic images.

Unfortunately, this report does not explain very well how Moan could make child pornographic images without abusing any children, but it would appear to be the case. Consequently, the sentence is probably quite appropriate.

Belfast Crown Court heard police found images of children as young as six being abused when they raided his home. The 43-year-old's address cannot be published for legal reasons.

A prosecution lawyer told the court that PSNI received information in September 2011 that somebody at Moan's home in Belfast was involved in "making indecent photographs of children" through computer activity.

She said that she could not divulge how police had uncovered Moan's activities but said that it was "connected to other people".

The judge heard that a computer was seized from a bedroom that was found to contain 187 pictures and video files.

Moan admitted possessing the images on dates between 5 July, 2011 and 9 September, 2011.

The prosecution lawyer told the court: "A second computer was seized in the living room and police recovered 746 pictures and video files depicting extreme pornographic images."

She added that some of the images were in two of the most serious categories of child sex abuse images.

A defence barrister said his client has been suspended from his post as a school caretaker and would now lose his job. He told the court that Moan had started looking at the images for his own "sexual gratification" after the breakdown of his marriage and was drinking heavily.

However, the defence lawyer denied that Moan was part of any 'ring' or was involved in distributing the pictures and videos to others.

A probation report stated that Moan would need to go on a sex offenders awareness programme for three years.

The judge said: "This is a bad case. No child should be subjected to what I have viewed."

Moan was sentenced to two years, with nine months to be spent in custody and a further 15 months on licence following his release from jail.

A paedophile was found to have downloaded more than 30 hours of disturbing footage of child sex abuse.

Andrew Forbes, 36, of Logiealmond, (Perthshire, central Scotland) was caught after police received confidential information about the nature of the material on his laptop.

Perth Sheriff Court heard that 212 video files of abuse were found, with the majority featuring the worst kind of sado-masochistic abuse.

Forbes was placed on the sex offenders register. He will be sentenced later.

He admitted two charges relating to child pornography between 23 March and 3 October last year.

Fiscal depute John Malpass told the court that confidential intelligence had been received about child porn being downloaded by Forbes.

He said Forbes' Dell laptop was examined and found to have one active user profile in the name "Andy" and within this were three folders of illicit material.

The prosecutor said 92 of the files found were at level five - the most serious level of abuse, 79 were level four, 19 were level three, eight were level two and four were in the lowest category, level one.

"They were found to be of children - predominantly boys - from infant age to approximately 16."

He added: "The video files had a combined running time of one day, six hours and 56 minutes."

Mr Malpass told the court. Forbes was interviewed by police and admitted downloading the material.


Sentence on Forbes, whose address was given as Cottarton Cottage, Logiealmond, was deferred for background reports.
