'Normal 21-year-old' from Bishop Auckland with 'good job' downloaded sickening child abuse images

A pervert who was described as a "normal 21-year-old" with a "good job" has avoided jail after downloading sickening child abuse material.

William Goodall was found in possession of 244 indecent images of children, 35 of which were in category A, the worst kind. The 21-year-old had also downloaded 49 extreme porn images which involved animals and was caught after police searched his home.

Goodall, of Dan's Castle, Tow Law, Bishop Auckland, appeared at Durham Crown Court on Friday to be sentenced for making indecent images. He had pleaded guilty to the charge at a previous hearing.
