A paedophile nurse who admitted to downloading baby rape images has been struck off after he was described as being 'unsafe' to work with patients.
Married dad-of-four Christopher Ewan, 45, used to work at the A&E department at Aintree hospital in Fazakerley, Liverpool. But during lockdown he downloaded more than 100 child rape files, plus extreme porn images showing bestiality. Ewan said he had downloaded the images during a period of stress.
When his sick crimes came to light, his family's home in Netherton was targeted by vigilantes, forcing his innocent wife and children to flee. Ewan was handed a suspended prison sentence at Liverpool Crown Court in September, having admitted three counts of downloading and one count of possessing indecent images of children, plus possessing a prohibited image of a child and extreme porn.
