Gorleston sex offender lied to police about having phones

A convicted sex offender named Liam Latore, aged 25, who resides in Gorleston, has admitted to child sex offences after initially misleading police during a search of his property in February. Police found two phones on his premises, one of which contained indecent images of children, contrary to his initial claims of having no devices. Latore has previously been convicted for child sex offences and uploaded indecent images to online platforms. He also admitted to possessing an extreme pornographic image. Latore was found breaching a suspended sentence order from 2023 that had been imposed for engaging in sexual communication with a child. He was due to be sentenced on September 15, but the hearing was postponed for further reports and additional information, with the judge seeking more details about his offenses. The case details were presented in Norwich Crown Court, and the offender is represented by Matthew McNiff.
