A man who defied a court order by continuing to download thousands of indecent images is back behind bars.
On Tuesday 22 May 2012, Geoffrey Baker (49) formally from Crewe was sentenced to two years at Chester Crown Court for breaching his Sexual Offences Prevention Order and making, possessing and distributing indecent images.
He pleaded guilty to the offences at an earlier hearing.
Officers were alerted by West Midland′s Police to the fact Baker was using an online file sharing site to access indecent images.
On 16 January 2012 officers executed a warrant at an address in Winsford which Baker had been visiting at and seized a mobile internet dongle, CDs, a USB stick and laptop. They then arrested Baker for breaching his order. He was later charged with the further offences connected to indecent images and was remanded in custody.
As they examined the items seized they discovered 3,412 images, 785 of them had been made available for distribution via the site.
DC Rick Deakin from Cheshire Police′s Paedophile Unit said: "Baker had been convicted of having and making indecent images in 2010 and had been subject to an order which prevented him from doing this again or having any contact with children.
"He ignored the order and is now paying the consequences.
"We will continue to work with other forces to ensure that Sexual Prevention Orders are upheld in order to protect children and young people.
"Anyone who takes part in this deviant and depraved behaviour should think again. We will come knocking at your door."
