A registered sex offender has been denied bail in provincial court.

35-year-old Matthew Twyne appeared for his bail decision today via video link from Her Majesty’s Penitentiary.

Judge Lois Skanes delivered her ruling just after 2 p.m.

Twyne was arrested in Mount Pearl earlier this month for failing to obey court orders to stay away from places where children under 16 are known to be.

Twyne has over 100 convictions on his record for exposing himself to women and children, as well as other offences including assault, thefts and repeated breaches of court conditions.

He’s due back in court September 3.
