A GP who was convicted of having more than 200 indecent images of children has been sentenced to 75 hours of community service. Alan Trevor Campbell, from Silverbrook Park in Newbuildings, County Londonderry, was also handed a two-year probation order.

The photographs and videos found on six of Campbell's devices were classed as category A, B and C - with A the most serious, denoting images involving sexual activity or sadism. At Downpatrick Crown Court on Tuesday, Judge Geoffrey Miller KC told the court 40-year-old Campbell has "lost his career, his marriage, and likely this will impact on the direct access to his child".

Standing in the dock Campbell was told if he breached the terms of his sentence he could face nine months in custody. He pleaded guilty to 11 charges relating to possessing and making indecent images and videos of children. Judge Miller said during his sentencing remarks that Campbell told police that he had been having problems in his marriage and struggling with fertility when he turned to pornography to try to help him.

However, he said that "pushed past what was decent". He said Campbell was "disgusted with himself" and that he accepted responsibility but denied having a sexual interest in children.
