A paedophile chef who had a sickening collection of child abuse images has been spared jail.
Steven Finall, 45, collected a stash of child abuse pictures and videos, including vile photos of toddlers being raped, Liverpool Echo reports. He was handed down a suspended prison sentence at a court hearing in Liverpool.
The court had heard that his employer, Chef and Brewer pub The Swan, had been aware of the allegations and had given their "support". However, a spokesperson for the pub said they were "shocked and appalled" to learn about the court case when the story broke this morning, Wednesday, September 28. The Swan confirmed that he no longer works at the family-friendly establishment.
