Police find hundreds of vile images showing abuse of children, animals

Key points

  • Police found nearly 750 files showing children aged one to 10 and 12 videos of animal abuse after raiding his home in August 2025. Because he had already spent longer than his sentence in custody, he was released to serve a two-year community corrections order.
