He had been sentenced to 33 months in prison by Guernsey’s Royal Court in December 2016 for indecent assaults and making threats to kill a 14-year-old with whom he had fathered a child.

He was then transferred from Guernsey to HMP La Moye in February 2017 and released on licence on 28 March 2018. In the days that followed, he spent time with a 13-year-old girl and did not attend at the shelter where he was supposed to sleep.
He was jailed for two years for the breaches after Deputy Bailiff Tim Le Cocq noted Paton didn’t have “any respect for the orders of the court, which are made to protect vulnerable children from you.”
Paton appeared in the Royal Court again on Friday, facing one charge of grave and criminal assault for an attack he committed on another man in January while inside HM Prison La Moye.
His lawyer, Advocate Luke Sette, entered a guilty plea to the charge and asked for a psychiatric report to be complied.
Paton will now be sentenced in the Royal Court on 21 June.
