Convicted sex offender with intellectual disability avoids jail for having child rape video
Stage: Sentence
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: He said the court had considered whether it would be just in the circumstances of the case and in light of Flynn's personal circumstances to impose a custodial sentence. "It seems it would be unfair and unjust to imprison such a man," the judge said, nothing that Flynn has "serious deficiencies" and intellectual and physical difficulties. He imposed a two-year prison sentence, suspended in full on strict conditions, including that Flynn place himself under the supervision of the Probation Services for one year.
