Man found with more than 50,000 indecent images of children given suspended sentence

Wojciech Trybicki (38) was linked to an IP address downloading indecent images of children in January last year.

A warrant was carried out at his house near Littleport on January 16 last year and a number of items were seized, including his computer, hard drive and a mobile phone.

The relevant seized items contained about 2.8 million images. Those images were then carefully reviewed and categorised by the Paedophile Online Investigation Unit.

In total, they found 53,722 Category C images, 405 Category B and 252 Category A - the most severe category.

When interviewed Trybicki admitted to downloading and addictively collecting the indecent images of children.

On Tuesday at Peterborough Crown Court he was sentenced to nine months in prison, suspended for two years, and ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid work after pleading guilty to two counts of making indecent photos of children.

He was also given a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for 10 years and placed on the Sex Offender’s register for 10 years.

DC Neal Holdsworth said: “Trybicki had a vast quantity of disturbing indecent material on his devices and it was a challenging task to review and categorize the content.

“Child protection is a force priority and we are working hard to keep young people in the county safe.”
