An Abbots Langley man who discussed sexually abusing children with his co-defendant has avoided a prison sentence.
Prosecutor Timothy Harrington told Birmingham Crown Court that their conversations were “shocking, repulsive and alarming” and also included “vile” racism about black children as well as claims they had themselves committed sexual offences against children.
Seekings pleaded guilty to four counts of making indecent images of children and one count of publishing an obscene article, while Kent admitted six offences related to indecent or prohibited images of children. “He has had to move far away, he has abstained from drinking and using the internet for frivolous things.
Defending Kent, Rebecca Da Silva said her client wanted to apologise “profusely” to the victims, the court and his family.“He doesn’t wish for me to excuse his actions, I simply ask your honour to take into account his guilty plea and the fact that he was a man of good character before this came to light.
