Milford Haven man jailed for exposing himself to woman

A Pembrokeshire man has been jailed for 29 weeks after exposing his genitals to a woman and sending her a grossly offensive message.

Uwen Watts, aged 20, of Coombs Drive, Milford Haven, committed the offences on the same day in February this year. He sent the woman links to pornographic material and exposed himself to her by being naked from the waist down.

In mitigation, defence barrister David Singh told the court that his client had taken Valium on the day of the offences and that this contributed to his behaviour.

Judge Huw Rees addressed Watts in court and said: “These are disgusting offences and you should be hanging your head in shame. I hope you are concentrating on what I am telling you. You tried to seduce this woman sexually. She was vulnerable.”

Judge Rees said the offending would have caused a “deep if not long-lasting effect” on the victim, and that there was “no alternative” to imposing an immediate custodial sentence.

Watts was sentenced to a total of 29 weeks in prison. He will also be subject to notification requirements in line with the Sex Offenders Register for a period of 10 years.
