Catholic Church "Child Protection Chief" caught with 4000 images of child porn!

A child protection official for the Catholic Church has been caught with 4,000 pictures of child porn. Father-of-four Christopher Jarvis was arrested after uploading pictures of children being abused to a website. Married Jarvis, 49, a former social worker, was employed by the church following sex scandals about pervert priests.

His job was to monitor church groups to ensure paedophiles did not gain access to children in the church’s congregations. But he was caught by police in March with more than 4,000 child porn images on his home computer and his work laptop.

He admitted 12 counts of making, ­possessing and distributing indecent ­images when he appeared before ­magistrates in Plymouth and is likely to face jail when he returns to court for sentencing next month. Jarvis, who has been sacked from his job as child safeguarding ­officer, worked the Diocese of ­Plymouth for nine years.

Church spokesman ­David Pond said: “Mr Jarvis was suspended from his position as soon as the diocese became aware in March of the police investigation. The Bishop took that action and since then the Church has worked closely with the police

3. HYPOCRITES are everywhere! Beware of the loudmouths!
It is incredible. The Church is trying to work itself out of the child rapist priests which is costing millions and this pedophile slips under the radar. You have got to be kidding. His poor kids. Hope his wife is heading for divorce court. This guy is going away for a long, long time. Deservedly. He is a child predator and is not fit for society.

4. So, if he was hired to monitor church groups...
To ensure paedophiles did not gain access to children? Was he actually working to hook the paedophiles up with children? I hope they'll be investigating that thoroughly.
