Christopher Thompson

Christopher Thompson, a 33-year-old former police staff member from Doncaster, was sentenced to six years in prison at Grimsby Crown Court. He was found guilty of attempting to arrange sexual activity with a child under 13, two counts of making indecent photographs of a child, and sending a communication conveying a threatening message. Following his arrest, investigators seized devices containing indecent images of children.

In addition to his custodial sentence, Thompson was placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life. The court also imposed a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and indefinite restraining orders regarding two victims. Misconduct proceedings were initiated by West Yorkshire Police following his arrest, with the aim of barring him from future roles within policing.
