Massinger Walk, Swindon, SN3
Description
A Swindon man who poses a significant risk to vulnerable sex workers has been jailed.
Sean Morris, 59, of Massinger Walk, Walcot, appeared at Swindon Magistrates’ Court on 13 June, where he pleaded guilty to breaching his sexual risk order (SRO).
Morris has been subject to an SRO since 16 February 2023. He was arrested in August last year after breaching the terms of that order. On 12 June this year, he was arrested again for further breaches of his bail conditions. He was charged and remanded in custody ahead of his court appearance the following day.
On Saturday (13/06), he was sentenced to 20 weeks’ imprisonment, placed on the Sex Offenders Register for seven years, and ordered to pay a £154 victim surcharge.
PC Katie Owers said: “Morris has repeatedly shown that he is unwilling to comply with the strict conditions put in place to protect vulnerable people. His behaviour poses a clear risk to sex workers in our community, and the court’s decision to impose a custodial sentence reflects the seriousness of his continued offending.
“We will continue to take robust action against anyone who breaches Sexual Risk Orders, and we hope this sentence provides reassurance to those who may be affected by his actions.”
