EIGHTH MEMBER OF SICK PAEDOPHILE GANG JAILED FOR PLOTTING SEX ATTACK ON BABY
A man who formed part of a paedophile ring has today (Tues) been found guilty of plotting to rape a seven-month-old baby.Mathew Law, 50, became an integral member of the group who used encrypted communication including TOR and the dark web to evade detection.
He is the eighth person to be convicted as part of a wider investigation led by the National Crime Agency (NCA) following a two-week trial at Bristol Crown Court.
Law, who pleaded guilty to conspiring to rape a child under the age of 13, first began communicating with a prominent member of the paedophile ring, Christopher Knight.
Luke Phillips from the NCA said: “Mathew Law is the eighth individual to be jailed since this investigation began in 2014.
“Today’s conviction shows how determined the NCA is in its fight against those with a sexual interest in children and will leave no stone unturned in the relentless pursuit of offenders.
> "If you are engaging with people online and watching and, or sharing indecent images of children, you will be identified and brought to justice.” Law was remanded into custody to be sentenced at a later date.
