A paedo with a nappy fetish went to nurseries to get freebies to fuel his sick fantasies, a court heard.

Anthony Jackson, 35, was convicted previously for possessing indecent images of children. But he then contacted two nurseries in the Pudsey area giving a false name and claiming he wanted to send his children there.

He asked them about getting free nappies and other items. The sicko was jailed for two years at Leeds Crown Court, but Judge Richard Mansell KC said he wasn’t convinced by the fetish claim and suspected it was to mask his attraction to children.

He said: “A probation officer believes you are hiding behind the nappy fetish. It gives me considerable concern that you are a registered sex offender and you are attending places like that.

“You are an accomplished liar who will say anything to portray a wholly false image of yourself. You have a sexual interest in children and you are plainly in denial. I consider you are hiding the truth of what motivates your nappy fetish.”

He first contacted the nursery last year by email, saying he had three children and was interested in sending them there, the court heard.

On October 18 he visited the nursery and he inquired about obtaining baby items, such as nappies. He was then referred to a children’s centre, but the nursery staff were suspicious of him.

Jackson, of Merton Avenue, Farsley, then contacted another nursery with a false name and said he wanted to send his kids there. He then claimed he was struggling financially, so the nursery gave him a bag of supplies, including nappies.

The sicko returned in December and again told them he was struggling, but this time they said he should contact a food bank. He told a primary school a similar story and they also gave him baby supplies. Concerns were later raised and the police were contacted.

Jackson was arrested on January 27, and police found an iPhone and HP laptop at his address.

Police discovered 281 prohibited computer generated images of kids, some as young as two being raped.

During his police interview Jackson claimed the nursery visits were to fuel his fetish for being an “adult baby” and to get “freebies”.

Jackson was given a sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) in an effort to curb his internet use after he was caught with indecent images of children before.

Appearing in court from HMP Leeds, where he was being held on remand, he admitted two counts of fraud, two of failing to comply with the sex offender register, a breach of his SHPO and possession of prohibited images.

Mitigating, Stuart Field said Jackson claimed to not have any kind of sexual arousal with the nappies, but that it was a “comfort thing”. He said Jackson suffered as a child because of abuse and neglect.

The perv said he was in a relationship with a woman, but that ended largely due to his arrest. He said Jackson had worked in waste management but was now unemployed and that he had ADHD.

Judge Mansell also gave Jackson a new SHPO which will last for 10 years alongside his jail sentence.
