The 62 year old Welsh journalist is set to return to court today to face sentencing after pleading guilty to a number of child sex offence charges. The disgraced newsreader entered guilty pleas to all charges against him at Westminster Magistrates' Court on July 31, after being charged with three counts of making indecent images of children.
He was arrested in November 2023 and officially resigned from the BBC in April 2024. The offences, alleged to have occurred between December 2020 and April 2022, pertain to images shared on a WhatsApp chat. Edwards stands accused of possessing six category A images, 12 category B images and 19 category C images.
If convicted, he could face a maximum penalty of 10 years imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
