The judge said Andrew Thomas Hayler caused 'profound harm' to friends, colleagues and housemates by creating and sharing images on the site.
A Sydney bartender who took photos from a string of women's private social media accounts and shared them on a pornography website has been jailed for nine years. Andrew Thomas Hayler, 38, posted photos of close friends, colleagues and housemates and encouraged people to share fantasies about the victims alongside his desires to sexually assault the women.
During an earlier hearing, Hayler said he published the women's names as he found it empowering, but he also thought his offending resembled "a tree falling in the forest". Judge Jane Culver dismissed any notion that Hayler had not caused a huge degree of hurt through his actions. "The widespread degradation of females could not have been lost on the offender," she told Sydney's Downing Centre District Court during his sentencing.
