William Lloyd-Hughes, 27, is ordered to complete unpaid work and undergo rehabilitation.
By Chloe Laversuch & PA MediaA former police detention officer who shared "dangerous and vile" content in apparent support of a Northern Irish paramilitary group has been sentenced.
He was sentenced at Westminster Magistrates' Court after admitting an offence under the Terrorism Act. The 27-year-old also admitted an offence under the Communications Act in relation to a racist social media post in which he used a hashtag implying support for killing Black people. Lloyd Hughes also told officers in December that the racist Twitter posts did not reflect his actual views, court documents show.Passing a concurrent community order sentence for the two offences, Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring also imposed a 40-day rehabilitation requirement and said Lloyd-Hughes must complete 100 hours of unpaid work.
