Pleading guilty to possessing 49 “prohibited images of children, between February 19, 2019, and August 4, 2020,” according to Sunderland Echo, a news outlet serving the city of Sunderland in northeast England, Moon initially faced three years behind bars and a spot on the sex offender registry for his possession of the drawings.
