Paedophile HGV driver Raymond Johnson, who was caught with a haul of indecent images, has been fined £461 after pleading guilty to his second breach of the notification requirements of the Sex Offenders Register.
73-year-old Johnson, now of High Street in Sandown, appeared before the Isle of Wight Magistrates Court on Friday accused of failing to comply with the requirements of the register, which he was placed on for 10 years in 2021.
The court heard that Johnson failed to provide details of a Barclays bank card to the Police within 3 days of receiving it.
Liz Miller, prosecuting, explained that it was back in May that Johnson attended Newport Police Station for his yearly reporting requirement and handed over details as requested. Officers noticed that a bank card in his name had become active 3 months prior, but had not already been registered with the Police.
Details of a previous breach, for failing to supply address details, were given with the outcome recorded as a £30 fine.
Defending, Henry Farley said that his client had to move from his previous address in Wootton due to bullying and that despite being 73 years of age, Johnson was still a HGV driver with his wife. Mr Farley explained that Johnson had made efforts to register things such as his new vehicle and had registered bank accounts with Nationwide and Barclays previously.
Johnson was given a 21-month prison sentence, suspended for 2 years, in May 2021 for making indecent images of children and possessing extreme pornographic images of children. A Police investigation uncovered hundreds of images of children collected over a 4 year period. The 73-year-old was previously been jailed – twice – in the early 1990s for indecent assault.
Magistrates fined Raymond Johnson £461 and ordered him to pay £85 costs with a £46 surcharge – a total of £592.
Disgusting individual lock him away and throw away the key
Why the fook is this guy still out living his day to day life he has been to prison 3 times started in the 90s the police and justice system should be ashamed that they let dirty men like this out on our streets where children are all around he clearly has not learned anything he should be burnd alive in the centre of Sandown for everyone to watch
Wow so a peado gets to walk free but yet a person that sells a bot of weed gets sent down sickening
Disgusting animal – this guy has been jailed twice in the early 1990’s for indecent assault and he we are about 30 years later and he is convicted of having indecent images of kids and still trying to hide things from the police.
this guy has clearly been at this for most of his life and I bet there are far more disgusting crimes he has committed that haven’t seen the light of day yet.
dirty perv needs hounding out of everywhere he goes and into a jail cell, then a coffin.
Hang him!!!!!!!!
Chop of his 73 year old little rotten Willy that he looks at kids with!
Had to move due to bullying !!!!!!
Tough you reap what you sow !!!!!
Filthy scumbags, should be castrated, and I can assure you if I we’re ( cannot write it )
The scumbag would be divorced long ago !!!!!!
All those kids have to live with what has happened for the rest of their lives…..
Age only improves wine not souls.
As with some disabled people or some children, it is human nature to assume they and all elderly are decent humans
Hope the once young pervert now morphed into a dirty old man gets more grief than it has given in its all too long life span
The true fact is that pedophiles get a fine, a prison sentence etc but as a victim of a pedophile I can assure you I have received a life sentence of ptsd and disgusting memories that are hard to rid ! The judicial system in my opinion are lame here in the UK and our government should take advise from the USA or even better the judicial system from the Middle East, this would be a deterrent.
He’s not going to change is he ? I am glad you put his name, age & location, as we can all steer clear of him as it’s only a matter of time before he acts on his vile impulses.
What absolute joke! The British justice system is an absolute joke! That Dirty old man should not be on our streets period…
Why is he still allowed to walk the streets???
Something could happen to a child? He’s a disgusting vile excuse for a human being.
Oh wow. Great. Fined £400. That’s really going to deter him from looking at kiddy porn and abusing children. What a joke
What happened to my comment ?
Why are no comments being put up on this ???
Should be castrated ..
Or in prison !!!!!!
Total scumbag ..
As for wife ????
Wouldn’t couldn’t be with scum like it ….
Shame on them both …
Why are you not putting any comments here ???????
Don’t like to ask the obvious question!!!
Where should this person be??
Yep, thinking the same thing, someone out there must have a lucky number ?
I thought the idea of a suspended sentence was for the convicted to have a chance to correct there ways , but if during that time they mess up , they go straight to jail.
Come on , twice ??????
Seems to be his age keeping him out of prison , no though for the victims , there age didn’t matter .
