A MAN has appeared in court charged with making hundreds of indecent images of children – as well as possessing an image of a person having sex with a dog.
Stephen Flint, of Milford Court, Sedgefield, appeared at County Durham and Darlington Magistrates’ Court this morning.
The 23-year-old faced a charge of possessing an “extreme” pornographic image and three charges relating to making hundreds of category A to C images of children between January 2013 and September 2016.
He was also charged with possession to show or distribute an indecent photograph of a child and possessing a prohibited image of a child.
Mr Flint entered no formal plea and was released on unconditional bail.
He is next due to appear at Teesside Crown Court at a date yet to be confirmed.
