Paedophile Ring Guilty Of Sex Offences


Eight men in a Scottish paedophile ring have been found guilty of a series of "horrific" sex offences against children and babies.

The men were convicted at the High Court in Edinburgh of a catalogue of child pornography and abuse charges, including the sexual assault of a three-month-old boy.

The court was told that at least one of the men had an HIV infection and that the victims were shared around.

Two of the men - convicted sex offender Neil Strachan and gay rights campaigner James Rennie - were convicted of sex attacks on children.


Strachan, 41, and Rennie, 38, both from Edinburgh, were also found guilty of conspiring to abuse youngsters, as were three other members of the gang.
And all eight accused in the 10-week trial at the High Court in Edinburgh were convicted of a series of child porn offences.

The gang members were traced through their explicit internet chats about sexual fantasies involving children.

Nearly 125,000 indecent images were seized during Operation Algebra, which uncovered the group, believed to be Scotland's biggest paedophile network.

Ross Webber, 27, of North Berwick, Craig Boath, 24, from Dundee and John Milligan, 40, from Glasgow, were all found guilty of conspiring to participate in the sexual abuse of children along with Strachan and Rennie.

The five men, with Colin Slaven, 23, from Edinburgh and Neil Campbell, 46 and John Murphy, 44, from Glasgow, were also convicted of a catalogue of child porn offences.

If Strachan was already a known sex offender then he should not have been out!!

Off with their hands so they can't touch, their genitals for obvious reasons (they can all be fitted with a suprapubic catheter to pee out of) and out with their eyeballs so they can't so much as LOOK at another child!!!

I won't call them sick as that implies illness, they're just evil!

throw them on a deserted island and leave them there with no food or drink let them rot.. Disgusting.....

Why can they not just let the public deal with these vial ...?

I'm glad they got caught - there's no hiding for those evil pathetic excuses for human beings. Off with their balls!
