In 2016, he was given 22 life sentences after admitting 71 charges of sex abuse of children aged between six months and 12 years, between 2006 and 2014.

Huckle's trial at the Old Bailey in 2016 heard that investigators who checked his computer found more than 20,000 indecent pictures and videos of his assaults. These were shared with paedophiles worldwide through a hidden website on the so-called dark web.
He presented himself as a practising Christian and first visited Malaysia on a teaching gap year when he was 18 or 19. He went on to groom children while doing voluntary work. In online posts, Huckle had bragged: "Impoverished kids are definitely much easier to seduce than middle-class Western kids." Huckle's encrypted paedophile manual was found on his laptop ready for publication on the dark web.
It is understood he was attacked on Sunday in his cell at Full Sutton Prison, near York, with what was described as a makeshift knife.
