A SEX offender who made indecent pictures of children and installed illegal software was told by a judge “boredom and loneliness” was no excuse for his “depraved” behaviour.

Christopher Daniels, 51, of Alyn Road, Buckley, admitted making the images of children - including a baby girl. The pictures were in the most serious category A as well as categories B and C.

Mold Crown Court heard Daniels had been given a sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) for ten years in January 2017.

Terms prohibited him from file sharing or using anonymity software on any device capable of accessing the internet.

However, on November 3, 2022, police searched his home and he was arrested on suspicion of making indecent images of children.

Officers examined devices and found 147 indecent images in category A, 74 indecent images and one moving film both in category B, and 113 category C indecent images.
