A man from Scarborough is due to be sentenced at crown court after admitting two breaches of the sex offenders’ register.

Marcin Derewecki, aged 42, was arrested by North Yorkshire Police on 7 February 2021.

The force says specialist public protection officers were able to prove that Derewecki had been using another name online and another email address which he had failed to notify the police about.

This is a requirement under the terms of the sex offenders’ register.

He was charged with both offences and appeared at Scarborough Magistrates’ Court earlier this month where he pleaded guilty.

He was remanded in custody and will be sentenced at York Crown Court next month.

Police say Derewecki received a suspended prison sentence in 2016 in relation to indecent images of children offences.
