County Derry man previously sentenced for possessing indecent images jailed after breaching probation order


Gary North (39) of Killycor Avenue in Claudy had been convicted after police found images and videos on his devices they had seized on May 31, 2018
A man who was sentenced to nine months in prison and given an enhanced combination order for voyeurism and possessing indecent images charges has been jailed at Derry Crown Court after breaching his probation order.
Gary North (39) of Killycor Avenue in Claudy had been convicted after police found images and videos on his devices they had seized on May 31, 2018.
Judge Philip Babington said that North had 'behaved fairly appallingly' during the course of the order.
The court heard that an assessment of North maintained he was now a high likelihood of re-offending.
Defence counsel Sean Doherty said that his client had completed the community service aspect of the order.
He said that the new offences were not sexual in nature and added that North had 'found himself something of a pariah' since his conviction.
Judge Babington said North had been given an opportunity and revoked the enhanced combination order and sentenced him to five months in prison.
