William Beale, 38, appeared in the Knysna Magistrates’ Court yesterday for sentencing, but the case was postponed to 30 June.
His lawyer requested to make additions to the psychologist report for sentencing purposes.
In February, Beale, who was linked to an horrific international baby pornography network, entered into a plea agreement which saw him plead guilty to 18 644 charges of possession of child pornography and a single charge of possession of dagga.
This, more than two years after his high-profile arrest by international police during a raid of his seaside home on 13 January 2015.
Beale, a Plett computer engineer, was the first South African to be bust as part of Operation Cloud 9.
The operation involved cooperation between South African and Belgian police responsible for cracking down on a child pornography ring linked to a cyber meeting space for paedophiles whose fetishes seem to be the sexual abuse of babies.
Some of the images included the torture and murder of babies only a few days old.
