A PAEDOPHILE received a suspended sentence after being caught with 16 indecent images of children.
Clive Jones, 53, of Stanley Road in Chingford, pleaded guilty to eight counts of making the images but was convicted of a further eight at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Friday.
He also pleaded guilty to one count of theft and has been sentenced to a four-month prison sentence suspended for two years.
In legal terms, making indecent images of children includes printing or downloading them on a computer.
Jones was convicted of possessing level one and level three images. Level five is the most serious.
