At the time of sentencing, Justice Royce described his crimes as “plunging into new depths of depravity” and called him a “corrupting influence” with a “complete lack of remorse.” He warned that “any decent person… will experience shock, revulsion and incredulity.”

According to West Yorkshire Police, officers were called to HMP Wakefield on Saturday morning following reports of a serious assault.
