Leeds nursery paedophile to be returned to court on fresh fraud charge
He was jailed earlier this year
A paedophile who landed a job at a nursery with false documents is to be returned to court on a new charge.
Kristian Parry was jailed earlier this year for forging references to obtain employment.
The case caused outrage among parents who demanded answers as to how the 27-year-old pervert was able to get through the nursery’s vetting undetected.
He will now be returned to Leeds Magistrates’ Court on October 2 after being charged with a fraud relating to June 2025.
Parry, of Sissons Terrace, Middleton, was handed a two-year sentence in March after admitting fraud by false representation and four counts of possessing indecent and prohibited images.
Leeds Crown Court heard that he had fabricated two references to land the job at the nursery, where he had been working for 10 months prior to his arrest.
He had been sacked over his drinking from another Leeds nursery in June 2024, and landed the new job just two months later, the court heard.
His Samsung phone was analysed and found to contain 871 Category A images and videos.
There were also 1,187 Category B, 3,263 in Category C and 52 prohibited images.
Many were of young babies and toddlers.
The court heard there was no evidence that any children at the nursery, that the Yorkshire Evening Post chose not to name, were victims of abuse.
Following the sentencing, angry parents said they had been “left in the dark”, having only found out about Parry’s sickening crimes through his publicised sentencing.
