The police seized a personal computer from the Defendants home.  An police inspection of the computer found numerous images that appeared to have been obtained from the Internet.  The Defendant was charged with making indecent images.

Defence counsel requested that an appeal judgement regarding images in the browser cache (Atkins vs. DPP, 2000) should be taken into account during preparation of the report.

The CPS decided not to proceed shortly after receiving this report.
