The guest was Stephen Bear, a Celebrity Big Brother winner wanted by Nolan for his TV show. “I want Bear!” Nolan wrote in one message, saying in another: “If I don’t get Bear tomorrow night, I’m sending more Bear photos.”

One recipient of the images, which showed Bear’s penis, said they were “beyond the pale” in an internal complaint to the BBC, according to the Irish News.

What the absolute fuck??!

 

[Looby]

Jeez! Stephen Bear himself convicted now of sharing images of his ex partner. What a fucking mess.

I once worked at a place where a top exec was asking for a golden handshake. He was being greedy. Then some emails came in, from his wife's email address to him and his teams. Of him wearing really bad womens sexwear with a dildo up his arris. And some other 4 some stuff which was really the stuff of nightmares. Imagine if the teams on bullseye had an orgy.
But yeah I think he resigned and dropped his haggling.


I was asked to do the forensics on the issue.

Were they actually from his wife or did go, umm, deeper?

Ha. I’ve never liked Nolan. There was always something a bit fishy about his hectoring, moralising, super Ernest shtick.

His wife didn't send it - it came from a webmail login. She was cc'd as well. It went much deeper. Not people you want to piss off when we are talking 25million dollar kickbacks to make sure the right firm gets the contract.
I've been involved with multiple instances where the suspect of large scale theft offed themself on aprehension.

Apparently he’s the fifth highest paid BBC presenter yet I’ve never heard of him. I’m guessing he must present The One Show or summat

Fucking prick should be in jail for that. I used to love him years ago when he was a DJ on XFM I'll erase those memories now.

Yep - how do you accidentally download 35,000 images?

His earlier excuse was that he was high on his ADHD meds

I used to get the massive horn on MDMA and such and would go straight for the porn. Not once did I ever think you know what let's look at pictures of kids FFS

A lot of people seem to get very lenient sentences for this kind of thing. Quite outrageous really. Some people get bigger sentences for drug possession or repeat shoplifting.

The courts are a joke.

There’s also a tendency to “medicalise” aberrant behaviour

To play devil's advocate for a minute, I guess if he was obsessively torrenting loads of adult content it would be entirely possible to download a number of archives of images without being aware of what they were, and perhaps never even opening them

Again not to defend him but I think they way they say download can be misleading as well. Viewing a galley of pictures downlands all the thumbnails. Even of you don't open any of them you still download them.

I don’t know who he is, and I don’t know how torrenting works, but that sounds reasonable. Were it not for the fact that the article ends by saying:

Speaking after the sentencing, Holly Triggs, operations manager at the National Crime Agency, said: "Tom Binns deliberately collected a huge number of indecent images of children.”

That hardly proves anything either way.

This topic makes me really uncomfortable, because once you start pointing out that it could actually be perfectly possible to download/upload large amounts of child porn without being aware if you were torrenting, and that there are plenty of past cases where men have been treated pretty badly by the system trawling for easy cases (including retrospective prosecutions of material that wasn't illegal at the time) you sound like some kind of awful nonce defender.

Obviously we'll never know if what he's saying in his defence is plausible or not but there is at least a chance of it.

I'm sure it's possible but it seems very unlikely. Even dodgy torrent sites don't want that kind of thing going round and the attention it would bring, I think it would get flagged very quickly.
