A pervert caught red-handed pleasuring himself to Internet child porn in his bedroom as officers from the Met Police’s Paedophile Unit walked in in was jailed for eight months today.
Batchelor Mark Walter Harrison, 50, of Brookfield Avenue, Sutton was tracked down by police investigating an online child porn community and arrested during a dawn swoop.
The delivery driver pleaded guilty to five counts of possessing a total of thirty indecent videos of a child and fifteen indecent photographs of a child on or about March 18.
Prosecutor Miss Shekinah Anson told Croydon Crown Court: "He was found masturbating in his room to an image of a child on his laptop aged twelve to fourteen years-old."
The laptop's hard drive was examined and police discovered further downloads of child porn featuring young girls from file-sharing sites.
"He is ashamed of what he has done," said Harrison's lawyer Mr. Fraser Croxhall. "When police found him in his bedroom he volunteered what he was doing."
Judge Nicholas Ainley told Harrison: "For these types of offences involving girls of this age I have no option, but to pass a custodial sentence."
The Judge also made a Sexual Offences Prevention Order prohibiting Harrison from accessing file-sharing sites and using the Internet to search for porn for five years.
