Wayne Young, 42, of Headington, has been sentenced to two years and eight months for making indecent images and breaching sexual harm orders.

Wayne Young, 42, of Bernwood Road, Headington, has been sentenced to two years and eight months in prison for two counts of making indecent photographs of a child and two counts of breaching a sexual harm prevention order.

Young committed these offences within a year of being released from a previous jail term for similar crimes. He was first convicted in Oxford Crown Court in April 2023 for having indecent images of children, possession of extreme pornography and attempted sexual communication with a child, receiving a suspended sentence. However, just two days after sentencing, police searched his mobile phone and discovered further indecent images.

Police found Young had been communicating with young children online using a chatroom. He told a 15-year-old girl she was a 'good girl and had a beautiful body' and called another young girl 'sexy'. Some messages sent to the girls asked them to commit penetrative acts. Between August 2022 and July 2023, Young possessed 56 indecent images across categories A, B and C, and made a further 51 images. Between February and March 2023, he was charged with making a further 16 images across the three categories.
