Man Pleads Guilty to Altering Porn Images

ESTON, England – A man accused of tampering with porn images has pleaded guilty to deliberately making models look younger and less physically mature.

Using a variety of graphics software, Stafford Sven Tudor-Miles confessed in front of a Teesside Crown Court judge that he reduced breast size and the appearance of the models’ genitals to make them look pre-pubescent, in addition to on occasion digitally dressing them in school uniforms.

Tudor-Miles faces fives counts of creating “indecent” photographs of underage models and one count of possessing child porn images, according to the BBC.

Tudor-Miles is a registered sex offender who, prior to a raid on his home, had asked to be medicated to “reduce his urges,” the BBC reported.

He will be sentenced on Sept. 8. and, according to the Teesside Crown Court judge, could face prison time.

In the U.K., the Protection of Children Act makes it an offense to distribute or share indecent photographs or “pseudo” photographs of children. Children include those under the age of 16 and those giving the impression that they are under 16.
