    and no more re-runs of Not the nine o'clock news or In the thick of it
    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        He's appeared on the News quite a lot. Should they ban that too?

              Don't forget all the news items on the internet and newspaper archives.

                Send out a message that downloading this stuff is as good as actually taking part in it. That way you will stop all the "I was only looking not doing" mob from underwriting the continuation of such abominations. Castration would also make a good follow-up tactic for any repeat offenders.
                You know it makes sense, and for those on here suggesting a softly softly approach to these perverted animals, shame on you.

                  He did seem to be making desparate excuses:

                  1) Research for a TV programme.
                  2) He was trying to exorcise the demons of being abused himself as a kid.

                  Both are implausible individually, but together seem like he was just clutching at straws.

                  At the end of the day, he did download images of child abuse onto his computer, and he's got to expect punishment for that.

                  B or C.
                  He also paid for some of the images, which is how the police got onto him, and in doing that he benefited and further "incentivised" (shudder) the people taking and peddling the images and God knows what else in the first place.

                  To me that is significantly worse than just hanging on to a few dodgy images that happened to come his way, or perhaps any illegal images found while surfing (although I wouldn't condone even that).

                    Possession of such material does not necessarily mean that the owner would act that way. He was found not guilty on the abuse charge.

                    So I’ll go for option A.

                    As long as we pander to these predators and their followers & supporters, we place our children in danger.
