A paedophile chef has dodged jail time after claiming a pub where he worked was allowing him to stay on. Steven Finall, 45 gathered a revolting pile of pictures and videos of children being abused including despicable images of toddlers being raped.
Despite this, he was given a suspended prison sentence and a court heard he would carry on working at his job at 'the Swan' in Winwick as kitchen manager, the Liverpool Echo reports. It was later argued by the pub's owners that they were unaware of Finall's crime at the time, although they have made the controversial decision to support him in court.
Liverpool Crown Court heard on September 27, that Cheshire Police received information earlier this year regarding concerning activity on Finall's Snapchat and they subsequently searched the paedophile's home in Warrington on January, 13. Officers executing the search warrant seized a Samsung tablet computer and a mobile phone.
