For the 2 offences of making indecent photos, Shuttleworth was given no separate penalty.

Absolutely shocking to hear about such heinous crimes in our community. Justice has been served, but we must continue to protect our children and educate them about online safety.
At one time, the real men in Oakfield would have decided and given the sentence themselves, I guess they are all too busy living the high life now on tax credits to care.
So different when it was a real community, it had it’s hard nuts, but now a mis match of non local vile it seems.
