Matthew Stainthorpe, 23, from Regent Street, pleaded guilty to possessing prohibited images of children at Northampton Crown Court.

A judge sentenced him to a three-year conditional discharge and placed him on the sex offenders’ register for three years.

Stainthorpe was arrested in March 2015 and pleaded guilty in 2016.

After a separate trial on other charges, for which he was found not guilty, Stainthorpe was sentenced last month.
