Elderly Man’s Curiosity Led to Crimes | Glasgow News
Description
A 79-year-old man from Cumbernauld, Dennis Hendry, has been added to the sex offenders’ register after admitting to downloading 37 child abuse images — including 10 of the most severe kind — over nearly two years, starting in January last year. He claimed he was “curious” and was lured into it through a golf and car app, where he was contacted by someone who sent him the images. Police seized his computer in November, and he confessed to actively searching for and deleting the material. The court ordered him to serve a two-and-a-half-year community payback sentence with strict internet restrictions, mandatory social work supervision, and destruction of his computer — all while remaining on the register for the full term.
