Former Premier League referee Coote gets suspended sentence for indecent image

Coote, 43, previously pleaded guilty to making an indecent moving image of a child of the most serious kind. Coote's arms and hands trembled as a sentence of nine months, suspended for two years, was passed at Nottingham Crown Court. Prosecutors said the two-minute, 11-second video found on his laptop showed the boy undress until he was completely naked, before performing sexual acts on himself. The court heard the clip was found after a separate probe into derogatory comments he made about ex-Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp in 2020.
