Nathan Berry

Nathan Berry, 38, of Llantwit Major, was sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court on August 3, 2026, to 5 years and 4 months imprisonment, with an extended licence period of eight years. Berry pleaded guilty to eight offences: four counts of taking indecent photographs, two counts of making indecent images, one count of possession of prohibited images, and one sexual assault of a child under 13.

The investigation began following the seizure of Berry's mobile phone, which contained indecent images of children. Subsequent examination of the device while Berry was on remand revealed evidence relating to the sexual assault. The court heard that Berry targeted two children due to their vulnerabilities.

In addition to the custodial sentence, the court imposed a Restraining Order and a Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO). Under the terms of the SHPO, Berry is prohibited from having any unsupervised contact or communication with any child under the age of 16.
