Trevor Pearce was he subject of a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) for 10 years and put on the sex offenders’ register after being convicted of previous indecent images of children related offences in 2021.
Essex Police Management of Sexual Offenders and Violent Offenders (MOSOVO) team were making a routine visit to the 63-year-old’s home last year when they discovered indecent images of children.
Officers checking his devices found a number of indecent images of children.
Yesterday, at the same court, Pearce was sentenced to three years in prison, as well as placed on the Sex Offenders' Register indefinitely.
“Today’s jail term reflects the seriousness of his offences, and I hope acts as a deterrent to other perpetrators.
