Man jailed for animal porn and child sex images

A man found in possession of extreme animal pornography and indecent images of children has been jailed.

Cameron Greaves, 21, was handed a 10-month jail sentence at Durham Crown Court on Tuesday after admitting five offences.

Greaves, of Crook, County Durham, will have to sign the sex offenders register for 10 years and will serve his sentence concurrently with a two-year and two-month jail term he is already serving.

Durham Police said among the 1,500 images found, were recordings made of others "without their knowledge".

Det Con Liam Padget, of the force's online child abuse investigation team, said the defendant had "deep-rooted sexual perversions."
