William Levy admitted taking, or permit to be taken, indecent images of children at his home in Tranent, East Lothian, over a 17-month period.

Levy also pleaded guilty to possessing extreme pornographic images depicting sex acts between humans and animals over a three-year-period.

Levy admitted the two charges during an appearance at Edinburgh Sheriff Court today.

A plea of not guilty to a third charge of possessing indecent photographs of children was accepted by the Crown.

Levy pleaded guilty to taking or permit to be taken, or make, indecent photographs or pseudo-photographs of children at his home address between 31 October 2012 and 25 March 2014.

He also admitted possessing extreme pornographic images depicting in an explicit and realistic way bestiality between 28 March 2011 and 25 March 2014 at his home address.

Sheriff Michael O’Grady QC placed Levy on the sex offenders register and deferred sentence on the 49-year-old to next month.
