A pregnant council worker leaked the address of a sex offender to an online paedophile hunter group.
As a result of Chloe Carr, 23, disclosing this sensitive information, a 30-strong mob turned up outside the offender's home and threatened to kill him and burn down the house.
Carr, a customer services assistant from Cottingham, Yorkshire, told the paedophile hunter group that the sex offender "deserves all he gets" and was "bloody awful" and "disgusting" but she asked them not to reveal that she had passed on the confidential information about him.
