Prosecutor Holly Fagan said searches revealed videos of dancing girls aged 10 to 12 in bikinis. ‘There was evidence he downloaded images and videos of young girls,’ she added.
The prosecutor continued: ‘There was no explanation why the accounts were not registered with police. He admitted to having Snapchat for two years and knew that messages were deleted after 24 hours.’
Howard Barrington-Clark, defending, said: ‘(Frost) is isolated, he lives alone and leads a lonely lifestyle.’

Judge, recorder Benjamin Newton, said Frost ‘could not explain why he had not registered the accounts’ and said he had a ‘history of disobedience to court orders’ which had landed him a fine and a community order last year and in 2021. The judge added: ‘This has to stop.’
Recorder Newton continued: ‘You have significant health difficulties with kidney failure. Probation say you are engaging and very open and honest. You clearly present a degree of risk but the nature of the breaches are not of the most alarming variety.’
Frost was spared immediate jail and was instead handed an eight-month prison term suspended for 18 months. He was also given 10 rehabilitation days and must continue to sign the sex offenders register indefinitely.
