APPLICATION OF REASONING IN R V SMITH [2012] 1 CR APP R(S) 82

October 17, 2013

A sexual offences prevention order should have been drafted to prohibit the offender from contact with girls under 16, rather than girls under 18. Nevertheless, he was still bound by the order whilst it was in force and his breach of it, by sending text messages to a 16-year-old, encouraging her to send naked photographs, and meeting her for sexual activity, merited a sentence of six months’ imprisonment.
