A convicted paedophile had another two years added to his sentence after engaging in ‘predatory’ behaviour towards another inmate.
Robert Odlin was already serving a two-year sentence at Hull Prison for sexual offences when he attempted to make another prisoner his ‘sexual slave’, referring to him as his ‘b***h’ while bullying and intimidating him.
Odlin, 45, admitted sexually assaulting the other prisoner during a hearing at Hull Crown Court and was told he ‘couldn’t care less’ about the other inmate’s feelings.
The offences included touching and rubbing the prisoner from behind and other acts of humiliation.
During one incident, he ordered his victim to perform a sexual act on him and told him ‘you’re not a good b***h’ when he refused.
Odlin had previous convictions and had been jailed at Grimsby Crown Court for two years in April 2021 for sexual offences.
During a previous incident, he admitted to police that he had fantasised about snatching a young boy from the streets and forcing him to be his sex slave.

A judge heard in 2021 how Odlin had confessed to having an interest in young children and had communicated with other paedophiles to request their help in kidnapping a young boy for him to rape.
A 10-year sexual harm prevention order had been imposed that day. He later committed an offence of exposure after his early release from prison.
Julia Baggs, mitigating, said Odlin himself brought the matters to the attention of the authorities.
‘He made it clear that he wanted to confess and that he knew he needed some help,’ said Miss Baggs.
‘He knows that he needs assistance to move on from this type of behaviour. He has similar troubling offending on his record.
‘He has been using his time in custody wisely. He wants to change and better himself.’
Dad-of-three Odlin, from Grimsby, had previously worked in retail and warehousing. Judge Sophie McKone told Odlin: ‘You humiliated him. You groomed him.
‘It must have been obvious to you from his demeanour and his vulnerability that he did not want to engage in this sort of sexual behaviour with you.
‘But you couldn’t care less and you couldn’t care less that he was clearly scared of you.’
The offence was deemed ‘predatory’ and Odlin was branded a dangerous offender. He was jailed for two years and will be on extended licence for two years after his release from prison.
He was given a sexual harm prevention order for life and will have to register as a sex offender.
