Former BBC presenter jailed for 'prolific' sex abuse of 33 men and boys
 
Former BBC :
[Benjamin Thomas's youngest victim was 11
and his oldest 34.
As well as the abuse, he made secret videos
when they were showering or using the toilet.]


[The judge - who jailed Thomas for 10 years
and four months - said he would remain
on the Sex Offenders Register for life.]

...despicable beyond words...and a 10 yr sentence, which he may serve around half of...?...there is no justice in justice ...the children will serve life sentences of emotional damage because of his abuse ...horrendous man...

the sentence seems a bit light to me from the sheer scale of what he was up to

He only got 10 years? This pretty much shows the state of our criminal justice system... it’s an absolute joke.

Dirty bastard ..sentence is a joke

Absolutely disgusting, should be in prison for life.

Josy 02-10-2020 05:43 PM

Pathetic sentence

Ammi 02-10-2020 05:46 PM

...it’s unimaginable how the parents must feel...3 months for each offence committed against their children ...and maybe reduced to around 6 weeks for each one..?...pffffttttttt, it’s staggering...

Surely he should be in a secure unit for the rest of his life ??

He’s clearly not going to change his ways when he’s released in 5 yrs ( or less)

Too right. It’s a disgrace that somebody this dangerous has got such a light sentence.

It’s obvious given he’s been offending for THIRTY YEARS . .. they should insist that he lives next door to the judge on his release .
