A s*x offender who groomed a young boy and sent him photos and videos of naked men has been jailed.

Martyn Fryatt groomed the child over the course of a year, sending him s*xually explicit messages and images and videos of naked men and young boys.

The 71-year-old repeatedly told the boy to delete the photos so that his parents wouldn’t find them.

Fryatt, a former Christian missionary, was arrested after the boy’s mum discovered the images and messages on her son’s phone and called the police.

The phone was analysed by specialist officers who uncovered numerous s*xually inappropriate WhatsApp messages that had been sent by Fryatt, along with images and videos of men and young boys exposing themselves.

Fryatt, of Burnopfield, was charged with several offences, including making indecent images of a child, possessing a prohibited image of a child, and engaging in s*xual communication with a child.

He admitted the charges and appeared at Durham Crown Court last Thursday (August 20) where he was jailed for a year and two months.

He was also made subject to a S*xual Harm Prevention Order and placed on the s*x offender register, both for ten years.

Detective Constable Graeme Whitfield, from Durham Constabulary, led the investigation. He said: “Fryatt showed disturbing levels of predatory behaviour towards a young boy and groomed and manipulated him for his own s*xual gratification.

“He showed no consideration for how his behaviour would have affected the child, who has shown strength beyond his years during the police investigation.

“I would also like to pay tribute to the boy’s mother, who had the courage to report her concerns about Fryatt to police.

“Fryatt is manipulative, controlling, and a danger to young children – this sentence and the orders imposed upon him on release will ensure that he no longer has access to children.”

If you have suffered s*xual abuse, please come forward and report it to police – either on 101, or in an emergency by calling 999.

Kidnapper who abducted girl, six, died of drug overdose at HMP Northumberland

Joseph Davies was found unresponsive in his cell, kneeling by his bed, surrounded by empty packets of medication last year

A kidnapper who abducted a young girl and molested her killed himself by taking an overdose in prison.

In 2019, Joseph Davies was given an extended 10-year prison sentence after he kidnapped, imprisoned and molested a six-year-old girl as she played in broad daylight. The pervert abducted the girl - who was in her school uniform - and took her to an empty house where he s*xually assaulted her and locked her in a back garden.

He initially gave a false alibi but later admitted kidnapping, false imprisonment, s*xual assault and offending with intent to commit a s*xual offence.

Davies, who committed the terrifying offences in Teesside and was from Billingham, was serving his sentence at HMP Northumberland, a category C men's prison. But four years into his sentence, on February 12 last year, Davies was found unresponsive in his cell, kneeling by his bed, surrounded by empty packets of medication.

Staff tried to resuscitate him and, having recovered a pulse, paramedics took him to hospital. However, the 27-year-old died later that day, with a pathologist concluding that he died as a result of mixed drug toxicity of his prescribed medication.

Following his su***de, an investigation was launched by the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman, who recently published their report. The report found that the clinical care provided to Davies at HMP Northumberland was of a high standard. However, the risk assessment which allowed Davies to keep his prescribed medication did not follow procedure and important risk information was not considered.

The report found that the non-clinical care provided to Davies was of a good standard overall. His risks were identified and managed effectively by staff, who took a "compassionate approach". There was "no evidence that they could have foreseen an imminent risk of harm on the day Mr Davies died", the report says.

On January 9, 2019, Davies received an extended determinate sentence of six years imprisonment and four years on licence in the community. He was transferred to HMP Northumberland where he continued to see the mental health team with support from a psychologist, speech and language therapist and mental health nurse.

The recently published report says: "They assessed that he had a learning disability and traits of autism, and worked with him to help him cope with this in prison. He was twice monitored under ACCT procedures, once after saying he had overdosed on his antidepressants." In September 2022, Davies was discharged from the mental health team.

Davies told staff that "he was happy at Northumberland and did not want to be considered for early release by the Parole Board". In November, a nurse assessed that Davies could keep seven days’ worth of antidepressant and epilepsy medications in his cell and self-administer.

The report adds: "On February 12, 2023, Mr Davies went to the visits hall in the morning for his first visit since being at Northumberland. His sister did not bring the correct identification so the visit was cancelled and Mr Davies was taken back to his houseblock. Staff said that he did not seem distressed. He went straight back into his cell, choosing not to mix with other prisoners on the houseblock.

"At lunchtime, Mr Davies was found unresponsive, kneeling by his bed, surrounded by empty packets of medication. Staff tried to resuscitate him and, having recovered a pulse, paramedics took him to hospital. Mr Davies died later that day. The pathologist concluded that Mr Davies died as a result of mixed drug toxicity of his prescribed medication." Davies was the 17th prisoner to die at HMP Northumberland since February 2020.

The report also made a recommendation that the Head of Healthcare should ensure that all staff who undertake Medication in Possession Risk Assessments (MIPRA) follow the Spectrum Medicines in Possession policy and review the prisoner’s medical record as part of their assessment.

The most recent inspection of HMP Northumberland was in August and September 2022. Inspectors found that safety and respect had improved at the prison since their last inspection in 2017. However, inspectors were concerned that the number of self- inflicted deaths at Northumberland was higher than at most comparable prisons. Assessment, Care in Custody and Teamwork (ACCT) documents for prisoners at risk of su***de and self-harm were poorly completed and prisoners said they did not feel supported.

A taxi driver who preyed upon a drunk passenger by driving her to a beach and ra**ng her has been jailed.

Ian Phillips clocked off from his shift in the early hours of February 12 last year and disabled his in-car camera, before waiting around outside the bars and pubs of Sunderland city centre.

Following the report, an investigation was swiftly launched by police, and Phillips, of Noble Street, Easington Colliery, was found guilty of r**e by a jury at Newcastle Crown Court.

He was sentenced to 12 years behind bars at the same court last week, and will be subject to strict licence conditions for a further five years.

He was also given a life-long order to sign the S*x Offenders’ Register and a restraining order.

Pa******le who groomed and threatened girl jailed

A pa******le who told a girl he would "knock her head off" if she told anyone about him abusing her has been jailed for more than seven years.

William Clowes, 66, was caught after his victim's mother recognised his hand tattoos in a graphic picture she found on her daughter's phone, Newcastle Crown Court heard.

Clowes, from Whickham, Gateshead, admitted multiple s*x offences involving a child under the age of 13.

Judge Tim Gittins said Clowes used "cynical manipulation" and a "sickening blend of grooming and threatening" the girl.

A restraining order was issued by the judge banning Clowes from contacting the girl or her parents.

Judge Gittins also warned any of Clowes' "supporters" who might seek "intimidation or revenge" against the victim or her family would be "dealt with most severely by the courts", adding it was "completely misplaced loyalty".

'Unwanted'

The court heard Clowes called his victim, who was not related to him, "baby girl" and gave her sweets, money and a mobile phone.

Prosecutor Glenn Gatland said Clowes then incited the girl to send him pictures and videos of herself performing s*x acts while he also sent her images of his ge****ls.

Clowes called the images "lovely", but when the girl said she wanted to tell her mother "he threatened if she told anyone he would knock her head off", Mr Gatland said.

One of his images was discovered by the girl's mother when she looked through her daughter's photos, Mr Gatland said.

Police seized his phone and laptop where they found 148 indecent images of children, including 24 in the most serious category, some of which featured the girl.

Clowes admitted to detectives that he sent the girl n**e images of himself, but said the ones she sent him were "unwanted", Mr Gatland said.

The prosecutor said Clowes, who had 13 previous convictions for 36 offences but none of them s*xual, had used "grooming and threats" to control his victim.

In a statement read to the court, the girl said she had been left feeling suicidal, unable to eat and with post-traumatic stress disorder.

In mitigation, Susan Hirst said it was "difficult to explain" Clowes' behaviour and he was "struggling to acknowledge" what he had done.

She said he was married for a long time but became "lonely" after the relationship ended about 10 years ago.

Ms Hirst said he had suffered from depression for several years and took an overdose in 2021 shortly before he started offending against the girl.

She said he was "not in good health" and prison would be "more difficult" for him than most.

'No remorse'

Judge Gittins said it was "preposterous" for Clowes to claim the girl had sent him the pictures "without any instigation" from him, adding: "You had the gall to suggest an innocent young girl was seeking to corrupt you rather than the other way round."

The judge said the offending had caused "significant psychological damage" to the girl, while discovering what had happened to their daughter "must have been heart stopping and stomach flipping" for her parents.

He said Clowes threatened the girl with "serious violence", adding he was "intimidating her to keep the dark secret between you and her" and had shown "no remorse".

The court heard there had been several delays in the case progressing through court as Clowes had been on multiple holidays, including a trip to Gambia.

Clowes admitted two counts each of causing or inciting a child under 13 to engage in s*xual activity and making indecent photographs of a child, and one count each of having s*xual communications with and taking an indecent photograph of a child.

He was jailed for a total of seven years and two months, made subject to an indefinite s*xual harm prevention order and ordered to sign the s*x offenders register, with the judge telling him he remained a "danger" to young people, especially females.

Bus driver had s*x with child days before he was due to be jailed for s*xual activity with her

Married George Willis, of Wallsend, was on bail awaiting sentence for s*x offences on the teenager when he picked her up from school and they had s*x

A bus driver had s*x with an underage girl after picking her up from school just days before he was due to be sent to prison for s*xual activity with her.

George Willis was on court bail with conditions not to contact the 15-year-old but “didn’t care” about the risks of continuing his illegal affair.

The married 53-year-old picked the teenager up from school six days before he was due in court to be sentenced for four s*x offences against her.

A court heard he took her back to his home in Wallsend and had s*xual in*******se with her before driving her home.

The contact continued and four days later he wrote her a letter referring to her 18th birthday being their “day of freedom” and told her he would keep a diary in prison to show her what he had to put up with.

Even on the day he was being sentenced, last May, he was in telephone contact with her, saying he would not be in prison for long and would see her shortly.

Willis was sentenced to 32 months on that occasion for three counts of s*xual activity with a child and one of inciting a child to engage in s*xual activity.

Now, after evidence of his further wrongdoing while on bail emerged, he has been hauled back before Newcastle Crown Court on a video-link to prison and jailed for an additional 23 months.

David Lamb, prosecuting, told the court: “The offence on the current indictment happened six days before sentence, while on conditional bail.

“While the defendant’s wife was at work he (had s*x) with (the girl) who at the time was 15 years old.

“On May 24 it came to the attention of her mother, who was devastated by the revelation that she and the defendant were still in contact and had in fact met one another.

“The defendant met her from school, picked her up in his car and drove to his home address.”

The court heard the girl, who said she loved Willis, had told her dad she was going to be late home that night due to an after school activity.

She later said Willis had got back in touch with her on a new mobile phone in an effort to avoid anyone finding out what he was doing.

Mr Lamb said: “The defendant asked if she would like to meet.

“They spoke about how risky that was because he was on an electronic tag and could be traced. He said he didn’t care.

“She said he picked her up from school and took her back to his home address. He said to her there was something he wanted to show her in the bedroom and he showed her his DJ kit.

“They sat on the bed and kissed and it progressed to full s*xual in*******se.

“She told the police it didn’t bother her as they had done it before. She said she knew what they were doing was wrong but they continued to contact one another thereafter.”

The court heard two days before his sentencing hearing last year, he wrote the girl two letters, also in breach of his bail conditions.

“He referred to her 18th birthday being their day of freedom and said while he was in prison he would try to keep a diary to show her what he had to put up with,” Mr Lamb said.

“Then on the day of sentence, he phoned her saying that would be their last chance to talk.

“He said he would not be in prison for long and would see her shortly.”

In a victim impact statement, the girl said she went off the rails a little and said she wanted to focus on her exams.

Mr Lamb said of her mother: “She said her daughter became withdrawn, argumentative and aggressive at school and at home and she feels this defendant’s behaviour has made her feel inadequate as a mother.

“She feels as if she needs help to stop the relationship once and for all.”

Willis, of Ridley Avenue, Howdon, Wallsend, pleaded guilty to s*xual activity with a child. As well as the 23-month prison sentence, which runs consecutively to the 32 month sentence imposed last year, which he is still serving, a s*xual harm prevention order made on the first occasion continues and he must keep signing the s*x offenders register for life.

Judge Edward Bindloss told him: “You were a bus driver in your 50s and you met a 15-year-old schoolgirl and started grooming her.

“You found out what gym she was in and joined as well, you broke down her barriers, spoke about her and her relationships, she confided in you about her boyfriend.

“She has written that she was in love with you but the law is here to protect 15-year-old girls from themselves and from people behaving in a grooming way as you have.”

Peter Schofield, defending, said: “Apart from this area of his life he has been the subject of no criticism at all.

“This has been quite devastating to him and those close to him.

“He is loyally supported by his wife and partner in the public gallery, who is determined to provide a home for him on his release.”

The court heard Willis has been hard-working, has diabetes and is using his time in prison well.

Mr Schofield added: “He is remorseful for where he is in respect of this situation.

“He understands he, as the adult, had the obligation to make decisions appropriate to the situation. He has been weak and has not been able to do that.

County Durham predator who arranged to meet underage teen for s*x jailed

Joseph Lee, 46, has been locked up for four years after he travelled to Framwellgate Moor to meet a 15-year-old girl - but police were waiting

A predator who arranged to meet an underage teen for s*x has now been sentenced – after a joint North East police investigation.

Joseph Lee, 46, is now behind bars after he travelled to Framwellgate Moor to meet a 15-year-old girl he arranged to have s*x with online. However, what he didn’t know was that officers from the North East Regional Organised Crime Unit (NEROCU) and Durham Constabulary would be waiting to arrest him instead.

NEROCU detectives worked alongside officers from Durham Constabulary’s Online Child Abuse Investigator Team, to carry out their operation on April 26 last year, and thanks to their partnership, Lee is now no longer a danger to children.

When interviewed Lee, of Drum Lane, Chester-le-Street, offered no explanation of why he did what he did and offered no guilty plea. However, due to the extensive evidence file compiled by officers, a Jury found Lee guilty of arranging/facilitating the commission of a child s*x offence earlier this year on October 27 at Durham Crown Court.

He appeared at the same court on Monday, November 20 and was sentenced to four years' imprisonment, a ten year S*xual Harm Prevention Order and will be placed on the s*x offender register indefinitely.

Speaking after the sentencing, NEROCU Detective Inspector Leonard, said: “This is another great example of police partners working together to protect children from predators like Lee.

“This type of work will not stop here and under the banner of Operation Sentinel we will continue to work with our partners to tackle online child abuse and s*xual exploitation and would urge anyone who has been a victim of this type of offending, or has concerns about someone’s behaviour, to come forward and talk to police.”

Fake fireman in lurid s*xual chat with two bogus 13-year-old girls

Online pervert Steven Drury, 42, asked to meet the fictitious teenagers, not caring about their young age, but it stayed 'in the realms of fantasy'

A fake fireman caught by pa******le hunters as he sent lurid s*xual messages to two phantom schoolgirls has avoided prison.

Online pervert Steven Drury, 42, thought he was talking to two underage girls.

In reality, they were two women who set up the voluntary group "Geordie Catchers" to identify internet child groomers.

He was only saved from jail by the fact that his twisted behaviour stayed "in the realms of fantasy".

He started talking to the two fictitious girls via social media in July last year, using the name John and used a profile picture of a man half his age.

He went on to use his true name and reveal his true age, and when they told him they were 13, he said he did not care.

He told one girl he was a fireman and he loved her, and told the other he wanted her to be his girlfriend.

He asked one: "Can we meet today? It'll be our secret... I'll find another girl if you don't want to meet and let me be dirty with you."

He sent them both explicit photos of male genitalia and asked for "dirty pics". When reminded of one girl's age, he said: "I know."

He told other non-existent girl: "You are s*xy. Can we flirt? I'm not bothered how old you are."
He asked to meet her and stay at his place and said he wanted to have s*x with her in graphic messages.

He also instructed her on how to search for p**n and how to carry out a s*xual act.

Arrested last November(2018), Drury produced his knife "from the ceiling" after claiming it would be under his bed.

He confessed to his activity but denied arranging or going to a meeting.

Drury admitted two charges of attempted s*xual communication with a child, one of attempting to incite a child to engage in s*xual activity and one of attempted grooming, offences which took place in Middlesbrough .

In a record of 28 offences including burglary, theft, battery and arson, they were his first s*xual offences.

Drury, was given a one-year jail term suspended for two years with a s*x offender treatment programme and 30 days' rehabilitation activity.

He was given a s*xual harm prevention order governing his contact and communication with children and his use of the internet, devices and images of children, and will be on the s*x offenders' register - both for 10 years.

He will be barred from working with children.
