Do you know if he’s on a sexual harm prevention order and do you know what being on the sex offenders register entails?
but yes he is not imprisoned I wouldn’t go so far as freedom
Was he not disciplined for gross misconduct? Or just suspended pending court case?
I’ve not read that
Should someone who stops offending before being caught, pleads guilty and shows remorse be treated differently to someone who hasn’t done those things?
Fucking weird comment that, especially for someone that ‘represents’ this forum for the club…..should be bannedNot excusing his behaviour but he’s lost his career, reputation, probably friends and family. Not sure what imprisoning someone adds to the punishment.
absolutely take the point of deterrent and victim having been damaged and risk of reoffending but would imagine he’s on the sex offenders register for a period of time
what’s weird about it?Fucking weird comment that, especially for someone that ‘represents’ this forum for the club…..should be banned

Clearly not just me given he’s been given aYou saying a nonce who’s a danger to children shouldn’t be in jail
Not what the psychologist said in court today about remorse and judge took it as mitigation. I don’t know the guy just quoting what I’ve readH
Edwards was not disciplined - he was off air due to mental health issues and resigned in April which meant he was paid a massive salary for many months after he plead guilty.
He paid a convicted paedophile to send pictures on Whatsapp - he could access free adult images if that is all he wanted. He was only caught when the pervert sending him images was himself caught.
He was a well known figure in a position where he was able to use power and influence.
Despite calls for he to refund the pay received after his plea he has opted to keep his money.
He has shown no remorse and blamed health issues for his behaviour.

Just not got timeYou have bothered to read that but nothing about his resigning and not being accused of gross misconduct? Nothing about taking a pay rise when actually pleading guilty?
How very selective of you.

Send somebody away for shouting at a copper .. but let nonces roam free .
Britain 2024
If his risk of suicide is significant in prison, isn't it significant out of prison?
My view is that as he was classified as medium risk, that alone justified a custodial sentence.
However your statement is daft, that’s just tabloid thinking, it’s not that simple and every case is different.

Agreed and the justice system does throw up bizarre differences in treatment for crimes that don’t seem to match upFair enough , to me he is a bigger danger to society than somebody who shouted hurty words at a copper

Causing death by dangerous driving is always one that doesn’t seem to match
It’s not though as then you’d be treating him in the same way as the person who made the images and who distributed the images.So it's not tabloid thinking as ROS stated .. a man purchased over 40 images of children some showing penetration between the ages of 7 and 9 years old .
He deserves a custodial sentence and to be on the sex offenders register for life
Pretty logical thinking if I may say so
It’s not though as then you’d be treating him in the same way as the person who made the images and who distributed the images.
There’s degrees of criminality and appropriate sentences for each of them.
As I said above you can’t imprison all 750000 of them.
I wonder how many on here have become or are addicted to porn who need help to avoid it escalating who are looking at this thread and thinking suicide is probably a better idea than trying to get help

I think being addicted to porn is slightly different to being a peadophile
Of courseI think being addicted to porn is slightly different to being a peadophile
Interesting questionHow many people who have been convicted of similar offences have you actually met in a world beyond prison Pete?
It’s not and can easily escalate into criminal activity especially in terms of this crimeIt is totally different.
Interesting question
That I know of 5. That I am completely unaware who knows
And a book no doubt.He's fucked.
The chance of recidivism is close to zero.
No need to house him on the public dollar.
There will be an interview with a tabloid in the next year or so though.
Awareness of what?Then you should have more awareness. I had someone who worked for me for 2 years who was sent down years later for downloading images and has been to prison twice - a married man, a pillar of the community - and no surprise to me - and a man who will never be safe around young boys
Awareness of what?
How dangerous people can be?
Definitely should be on the sex offenders register for life.I find it baffling that he has escaped prison and doesn’t even have to register as a sex offender for life.
Justice in this country as ever is apportioned based on power and wealth, not the severity of the crime.
