OXFORD PAEDOPHILE SENTENCED AFTER INDECENT IMAGES FOUND
A paedophile from Oxford has received a prison sentence after police discovered indecent images of children on his mobile device.Jason Batty, residing on Morrell Crescent in Littlemore, was brought before Oxford Crown Court on June 25.
The 38-year-old admitted to three charges of possessing indecent images of children, which were found in Wallingford between February 2023 and July 2024.
Authorities discovered nine images classified as category A, three as category B, and six as category C on his phone, following a prior police investigation.
In 2025, Batty was also sentenced for violating a sexual harm prevention order, which had been imposed after he attempted to obtain indecent images by messaging what he believed to be a young boy.
On February 12, 2022, he was caught communicating with someone he believed was a minor under 16, using the alias ‘Ethan’, and making requests for indecent photos as well as posing inappropriate sexual questions.
He later confessed to deleting messages exchanged with a third party across multiple social media accounts and creating a Snapchat account, along with using DuckDuckGo, a private search engine.
During his latest court appearance, Batty arrived in court using a walker and was assisted by medical staff.
He was sentenced to an 18-month community order, which includes up to 35 days of restricted activity requirements (RAR), and was ordered to pay a fine of £150.
Additionally, he remains under a sexual harm prevention order that extends until 2034.
