A PAEDOPHILE from Dalton has been jailed after pleading guilty to a string of offences.
Nathan Brian Parker, 23, of no fixed address and formerly of Dalton, appeared before Preston Crown Court yesterday.
The 23-year-old pleaded guilty to three offences.
He admitted making 259 indecent movies and photographs of children between August 14 2015 and April 2016, possessing an extreme image which portrayed intercourse with a horse, and possessing a prohibited image of a child.
Parker was given a 14-month jail sentence for the first offence, a four-month jail sentence for the second offence and another 14-month jail sentence for the third offence.
The judge, His Honour Judge Altham, said all sentences would be served concurrently.
