Overlooking the fact that this story is nearly three weeks old, the individual concerned was NOT a councillor. It's important to get these facts right when commenting on such serious issues. He was actually a legal executive employed by the council, not an elected representative.

Well I'm glad this story has been posted although slightly inaccurate, I wasn't aware of it and unfortunately this man is one of my neighbours. I will warn my children to stay well away.

steve - thank you, noted and amended title and yes it is three weeks old but still very relevant.

for those who have been following this, here is an update. Let's hope this man is locked up very soon: http://www.hertsandessexobserver.co.uk/Bishops-Stortford/Former-Herts-County-Council-legal-chief-admits-child-porn-charges.htm http://www.hertsandessexobserver.co.uk/Bishops-Stortford/Former-Herts-County-Council-legal-chief-admits-child-porn-charges.htm

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-13133508 So it seems our friendly neighbour who fantasies about having sex with 7 year olds still gets to live a few doors down from Morgans school, while living off his generous council pension, simply has the inconvenience of attending some sex meetings! Gosh life is hard for our local perv!

@ Jaycee There's this : http://www.kidshield.co.uk/sex_offenders_uk.htm Not sure if the police can give out info under the FOIA, wiki does mention a request under FOIA to Greater Manchester Police "In response to a Freedom of Information Act request in 2009, for example, Greater Manchester Police reported that of 16 people in their area placed on ViSOR since 2007 on their initiative and not as a result of a conviction, 4 (25%) had not been convicted." http://www.kidshield.co.uk/sex_offenders_uk.htm Might be worth asking PC.
