From pastor to pedophile

This one comes from the U.K. The son of a vicar found his father's stash of nasty child porn. His son turned the movies over to the local police. Now Paul Battersby is a disgraced former pastor. How does one go from a pastor to a pedophile? How does one do both at the same time?

A Lancashire vicar's facing jail after admitting watching an Internet clip of a schoolgirl being tied up and raped by a pedophile.

Reverend Paul Battersby, who worked at St Ambrose Church in Leyland was arrested in April - and had his computer seized.. after his son spotted the shocking images.

There were pictures of a 12 year old girl naked - the worst though - a 10 year old being tied up and attacked. That's classed as level five -the most serious of child porn offences.

Battersby faces some serious jail time. He will have to wait until January to find out how long.
