- Court of Appeal
The Court held the starting points adopted by the District Court for both the objectionable publications offending and the Philippines live‑streaming sexual exploitation offending were within the available and appropriate range given the serious Category A material (penetrative acts, bestiality, sadism), the appellant's directing role, and the presence of other serious unrelated offending; the six month totality reduction was adequate; therefore the appeal against sentence was dismissed.
