A PERVERT caught with indecent images of children in his marital home has avoided jail.
Robert Peacock, 42, was snared with the sick haul at the property in Glasgow's Battlefield on October 5, 2023.
Glasgow Sheriff Court heard that officers entered Peacock's home and detained him as well as his husband.
Peacock's Samsung mobile phone was recovered which was found to contain indecent images on it.
He was arrested and taken into custody while a further examination of the device took place.
Prosecutor Victoria Keel said: "Analysis on the phone found still images of exploitation and abuse of children.
"There was a total of 20 still images of male children aged between 10 and 16.
"These were on an area of the device which is not accessible without specialist software."
It was stated that the images were stored on the phone between December 2022 and August 2023.
First offender Peacock pleaded guilty to being in possession of indecent images of children.
Sheriff Iain Fleming ordered Peacock to do 160 hours of unpaid work.
He was also put under supervision and the sex offenders register for 18 months.
