Sydney paedophile Dean Angus Bell back behind bars on child porn charges

A young serial paedophile is back behind bars after allegedly using his mother's iPhone to view images of children in the middle of the night.

Dean Angus Bell, 25, was arrested at his parents' suburban Sydney home on Monday for breaching the strict conditions of a Child Protection Order against him.

He appeared in Campbelltown Local Court on Tuesday where bail was refused. 

Bell has a criminal history which psychologists rate among the top one per cent of international sex offenders.

NSW Supreme Court documents reveal Bell has a record of repeat offending, with some of his acts on children committed within just hours of his release from prison.

Despite this Bell has been allowed to live on the same street as a kindergarten since he last walked out of prison - but is now back behind bars after allegedly taking his mother's phone without her knowledge and using it to view pictures of children.

Police allege that between 12.47am and 3.36am on February 28, Bell committed four breaches of the child protection order he is subjected to.

He is alleged to have accessed his mother's iPhone and visited a photo-sharing website, court documents seen by Daily Mail Australia revealed.

The Russian website is popular among paedophiles who send images of naked children around the world.

Bell was arrested on Monday morning and charged with four offences relating to the alleged breach of his child protection order. 

They include having a password protected phone in his possession, accessing the internet other than to seek employment, access the internet not from an authorised computer and use a mobile device to view images of children under the age of 18.

Bell did not apply for bail and was ordered to remain in custody during a brief court mention on Tuesday.

Bell has been in and out of jail since the age of 18 and an application was last year filed to have him officially listed as a high-risk sex offender.

As part of this application he was ordered to undergo an assessment by psychologists, including sitting the Static 99R test - a tool used to assess sex offenders in Australia, the United States, Canada, and much of Europe.

The test's ten questions focus on the age, number and regularity of the offender's victims. 

Documents revealed that when Bell sat the test, the results were rated 'concerning'.

'Compared to other adult male sex offenders, Bell's score is in the 99th percentile...' Bell's psychologist said in a report.  

Bell (pictured) was granted parole last July but despite being subjected to some of the strictest conditions for an Australian paedophile is living among families in suburban Sydney. Police allege he broke those conditions by using his mother's phone in the early house of February 28

On several occasions Bell (pictured) has attempted to groom children for sex on social media, even offering cash, drugs and cigarettes to one boy if he agreed 'masturbate him'

Bell's offending began in 2013 when the then 20-year-old used social media in an attempt to groom a 13-year-old boy for sex, the documents show.

In September 2014 Bell offended again, contacting a 14-year-old girl and asking her to persuade her friend, another 13-year-old boy, to perform sex acts on him.

Bell offered to give the pair $100, cigarettes and drugs if the boy 'masturbated him'. 

Police also found him to be in possession of child abuse material and saw photos he had taken on his phone of random children at a shopping centre.

Bell was sent back to jail for a minimum of two years and released on June 19, 2017, court documents show.

But just hours after walking out of prison he sent a text message to a contact describing how he 'missed' the same young boy he had asked to masturbate him while in prison. 

He told the person he was 'depressed' at not being able to see the young boy, according to the court papers.
