Robert Mauger, 31, pictured, had pleaded guilty to five counts of making indecent images of children, before being sentenced at Royal Court, relating to a total of 350 movies and 130 pictures.

Back in March 2013 Mauger was convicted for 11 counts of making indecent images and sentenced to a term of three-year in prison imprisonment.

Advocate Samuel Steel, representing Mauger, read out part of a letter to the court from the defendant, in which he said he felt worthless and ashamed.
