Define make…he received was in possession did not distribute …so if anyone asked for images of 25 year old plus and got underage they be guilty too of "making " images. Maybe huw has other skeletons in his closet we shall need to see..
A twelve month suspended sentence for this? Utterly disgraceful and you have to wonder about the judges who hand down the sentences. The BBC has a lot of questions to answer and I’m only glad that I cancelled my licence years ago and that I’m not paying any of their wages!
What is wrong with Men like this pay massive salaries put them in the T.V do what they want..Must hate their Children and Wives, and the other Children. They all protect each other..Deal with the Truth.
you telling me so many sex perverts in one place and they say they didn't know are you for real I will not pay any thing to this cooperation or watch anything again shame on you
How dare he! He's not even royalty!! /s
Pienaar sounds like a defence lawyer, but there again it is one of his BBC buddies who has been caught.
Instigation or not, he liked watching kiddies, period.
377 images should mean 377 years in prison! Zero tolerance. That other fool shouldn't be out on a suspended sentence. We are living in disgusting times.
The behaviour of the BBC is typical; apart from its ideological propaganda it tries to sail close to the wind. Sorry Guys, you lot got caught.
I am afraid there's more high profiles figures out there. And not just the BBC sadly so…but every respectable institutions: Disgusting and sick minded society with no moral-compass we have become,the wealthy and powerful we cannot trust, let alone weirdos criminals on the Street…
BBC Licence must go…..subscription must replace, you can then choose if you want to watch.
It's absurd to use the expression -'making' when they mean possession. The law needs clarity.
I never trusted him. His integrity never existed. He couldn't or wouldn't hide his displeasure when announcing to the nation that Boris had won the election.
And the public literally gave him their money for this.
They are not . Why would you say that . Think before you ink.
We need to stop paying the TV license… why should we pay for these nonces
Mysteriously Williams did not get the VIP treatment as Huw got when he arrived at Court
