Maidstone Crown Court, where Force appeared

by Julia Roberts

A man from Dartford has admitted having pornographic images depicting sex acts with an animal.

Thomas Force, 22, from Temple Hill, pleaded guilty to possessing six extreme pornographic images between May and June 2010.

Force also admitted 10 offences of making indecent photographs of children between February 2008 and September 2011.

Maidstone Crown Court heard the images ranged across all categories of seriousness.

Force, formerly of Carlisle Road, Dartford, was released on bail until he is sentenced on January 21.

He was told by Judge Michael Carroll he must sign on the sex offenders' register with immediate effect, and will be made subject to a sexual offences prevention order at his next hearing.
