Dudley child porn addict jailed over 33,000 indecent images
A man 'obsessed' by young girls has been jailed for 18 months after he downloaded more than 33,000 indecent photographs of children.
Steven Eaves, 42, from Pensnett, was also placed on the Sexual Offenders List for the next 10 years.
Judge Barry Berlin said it was clear Eaves, of Dreadnought Road, used the material which showed children as young as two being abused.
He said Eaves had been addicted to the images he downloaded adding: "You have an unhealthy obsession with young girls."
The judge said: "These are utterly grave and disgusting images that fuel what is an utterly grave and disgusting industry."
Eaves admitted possessing the indecent images and another charge of voyeurism.
He was also made the subject of an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order by the judge at Wolverhampton Crown Court.
Miss Ruby Ghinday, defending, said Eaves had been unhappy with his life at the time of his offending which had started out as 'curiosity'. She said he wanted to put his life back in order.
