41-Year-Old Man Jailed For Child Sexual Abuse
A 41-year-old man has been jailed for four years after pleading guilty to a number of child sex abuse offences at Blackfriars Crown Court.
Allan Wright, from Surbiton, was charged with seven offences in July 2014, including arranging or facilitating the commission of a child sex offence and making and distributing an indecent image of a child.
Wrights crimes were discovered by the National Crime Agency (NCA), when he was identified as using a website to contact women with possible access to children.
A forensic digital analysis of Wright's computers, and found chat logs containing explicit sexual messages. Wright had sent these to a person he believed had access to a three year old child.
At trial in March 2015, Wright entered a guilty plea to three offences, which was accepted by the Judge. The other charges were left on file.
Matt Long from the NCA’s CEOP Command said: "Allan Wright is a prolific child sex offender. All the evidence suggests had he not been identified, he would have gone on to commit even more serious crimes than those he has been sentenced for today."
