Adam Johnson was arrested for possession of animal porn but will not face action after he was jailed for SIX YEARS for grooming and abusing 15-year-old fan. Disgraced footballer Adam Johnson was arrested over possession of animal pornography, it can be revealed for the first time today after he was jailed for six years. Johnson's phone and laptop were seized after his arrest at home in County Durham in March last year. The 28-year-old was then re-arrested on suspicion of possessing extreme pornography but was not charged with the offence as the police investigation focused on his meetings with the girl. He has since been told he will not face action over the bestiality images, as he prepares for jail for the more serious child sex offences. The former £60,000-a-week Sunderland winger showed no emotion today as Judge Jonathan Rose handed him the six-year sentence. Details of Johnson's stash of animal porn images could not be reported during his trial, but were revealed today after the case concluded. It can also be revealed that medication for sexually-transmitted diseases was found at his home during a police search. Searches of his computers also revealed that Johnson regularly visited a website called 'Nice Young Teens', which shows pictures of girls just over the age of consent. He also joked about having sex with women on the bonnet of his Range Rover. Sentencing Johnson today, the judge said the footballer had shown no remorse for what he had done, adding: 'This will be your first prison sentence, this is all entirely your fault.' The judge said the offence was aggravated by the fact Johnson took the girl to a dark place, tried to conceal his crimes and the impact on his victim, who now suffers 'night terrors' and needs therapy. The judge added: 'You are trusted by young fans to behave properly... You were a respected Sunderland footballer, that is why you were able to commit these offences.' Johnson, who sat chewing gum during the hearing, will serve half of his sentence in prison before being freed to spend the rest on licence. He will be on the sex offenders' register for the rest of his life. Johnson sprinted into court to avoid cameras this morning ahead of a sentencing hearing, which heard he felt he had a 'right to sex' and put this victim's age 'out of his mind'. The judge said the victim had been a Sunderland fan who would wait after matches to take pictures of her 'favourite player', Johnson, who had known her age. He said: 'That was known to you - to put it another way she had only just turned 15 when you began grooming her, because as you were to admit you found her sexually attractive.' Speaking after Johnson was jailed, Detective Inspector Aelfwynn Sampson, of Durham Constabulary, said: 'This girl should have been safe but she was used by the public figure she looked up to most. 'I hope today will bring some closure for her and her family. 'This case demonstrates that victims of these crimes will be taken seriously and perpetrators will be dealt with robustly.'
