| Red Rose Database
Newburgh Child Abuser
Jayme Williams, a 31-year-old resident of Newburgh, appeared before Aberdeen Sheriff Court following disturbing revelations uncovered by law enforcement officials. The police had executed a search warrant on May 20 at Williams' residence and seized his mobile device, which subsequently revealed a troubling collection of child abuse material. The investigation uncovered more than 118 images depicting minors, many of which were classified as the most severe category, indicating the explicit and exploitative nature of the content.
Williams, who had previously been convicted of similar offenses just last year, did not deny the possession of these illicit images. During the court proceedings, he admitted to having these images stored on his phone. The forensic examination of his device confirmed the presence of 52 images categorized as Category A, 30 as Category B, and 36 as Category C, all featuring underage children in exploitative situations. This discovery was particularly alarming given his prior conviction in March of the previous year, which resulted in him being placed on the sex offenders register for a period of two years.
His solicitor expressed deep regret over the situation, highlighting that Williams was caught with more illegal images less than four months after his initial court appearance. The legal representative also emphasized the significant impact this has had on Williams' personal life, including the loss of employment for both him and his wife. The court was informed of the seriousness of the case, with prosecutors outlining that Williams' actions appeared to be deliberate and motivated by personal gratification rather than accidental possession.
In sentencing, the sheriff ordered a community payback order with supervision, requiring Williams to complete 300 hours of unpaid work. Additionally, a sex offender protection order was imposed for a period of three years, which includes monitoring of his electronic devices and mandatory participation in a sex offender program. The court acknowledged that Williams' repeated offending points to underlying issues that need addressing, and the sentence aims to both rehabilitate him and safeguard the public from further harm. The case underscores the ongoing challenge of dealing with repeat offenders in such serious and sensitive crimes.
