"Things changed in 1997 when he had extensive and life changing surgery for cancer and the side effects caused him to lose his sexual appetite and he experimented with pornography searching for increasingly more shocking images and it spiralled out of control.

"He's remorseful and fully cooperated with the police and no longer has a computer."
