A 29-year-old man from Bradford has been locked up for more than two years after police caught him sharing indecent images of children via a private messaging app.
Guiseppe Bottone, of Stone Street, was tracked down thanks to a tip-off from another police force. This led officers to an online group exchanging child abuse material.
Disturbing Cache of Images Found at His Home
Bradford District’s Online Child Abuse Investigation Team raided Bottone’s home, arrested him, and seized multiple electronic devices. Investigators uncovered thousands of vile images.
“Bottone is a dangerous online sexual predator,” said Police Constable Scott Tyson. “He possessed more than a thousand images of the most disturbing child abuse material.”
