He was subsequently arrested on Sunday 1 October after officers conducted a warrant at his address on Broad Oak Road, in St Helens.
During questioning Brennan refused to answer any questions, but he subsequently pleaded guilty on his first appearance in court.
He has been released on conditional bail and is set to appear at Chester Crown Court on Monday 30 October.
