A former police constable has been jailed for one year after being found guilty of making and distributing indecent images of children.

Jordan Janssen, 37, of Maryon Grove, Charlton, was arrested by officers from the Metropolitan Police’s Paedophile Unit on July 15 last year after being identified through an online investigation.

He resigned from the police later that month, having previously worked as a police constable in Lambeth.

Mr Janssen was sentenced to one year for distributing indecent images of children and four months for making 183 indecent films and images of children at Southwark Crown Court yesterday.

The sentences are to run concurrent.

Janssen has also been placed on the Sex Offenders Register for ten years and been handed a five year Sexual Offences Prevention Order.

The judge said: “These are serious offences and distributing and making such images are not victimless crimes."

Children are often trafficked and forced into the making of these images and they have to be protected." “Downloading of these furthers the continued demand for these images.”

Detective Inspector Noel McHugh, from the Paedophile Unit said: “This result demonstrates that those who are engaged in the production and distribution of indecent images of children will be discovered, no matter who they are.”
