He stored copies on his own devices which were also found to contain indecent images of children
. He also changed the login details on the accounts so the woman - which he knew - was unable to access them.
The 30-year-old, of Cecil Street, Lytham, was sentenced on Friday at Preston Crown Court for a number of offences, including Hacking offences under the Computer Misuse Act, s170 Data Protection Act and Making Indecent Images of Children.Partington was given 29 months imprisonment following the investigation by Cumbria Constabulary's Cyber and Digital Crime Unit. The investigation forms part of Operation Alliance; the force's ongoing response to serious and organised crime.
Detective Constable Jon Hill from Cumbria Constabulary's Cyber and Digital Crime Unit said: “Sam Partington used technology as a weapon to exert control. Given our growing reliance upon technology, cases of digitally-enabled domestic abuse are becoming more prevalent. However, they do remain under-reported.
“I hope that this result sends a clear message to victims, and would be offenders, that digitally- enabled domestic abuse will not be tolerated and the police will use all powers at our disposal to bring offenders to justice. “I would urge anyone who has been a victim of any type of domestic abuse, to report this matter to the Constabulary via any of our reporting channels.”
