A former school governor, who was jailed for child sex offences, wrote "nonce" on his chest and took a picture of himself.
Christopher Smith, 41, who was a school governor and worked for the Home Office, had his secret life revealed after a pervert was arrested by Devon and Cornwall Police. Examination of the man's phone showed he had been in communication with Smith and received sexual images.
When Smith, who was then living in New Brighton, Wirral, was arrested and interviewed on November 18 by Merseyside Police the same images were found on his phone and a “plethora” of messages between the two men, said Martine Snowdon, prosecuting. She told Liverpool Crown Court on Friday, February 17, that among images he sent was one of him with "nonce" written on his naked chest.
