A nursery worker from Lanarkshire who
was jailed for eight years for filming himself abusing young boys has had his
prison term cut by appeal judges.
Alexander Mortimer, 28, admitted assaulting the boys, taking indecent photographs of children, and possessing indecent images.
His lawyers successfully argued he was not given a large enough sentence reduction for his early guilty plea.
Appeal judges reduced his prison term to five years and 11 months.
