However, the court heard fresh charges were brought after US authorities located photographs of Voigt and Andrews involved in sex acts with the children. The photos were passed on to Queensland police who re-interviewed each of the defendants, resulting in new confessions. Henderson admitted to taking many of the photos and being involved in procuring sex acts between the children but was not represented in any of the pictures. Judge Milton Griffin extended each of the men's sentences, handed down in 2005, by 18 months.
