Hi,
Wondering if anyone can offer any advice? My ex husband was arrested back in Oct for IIOC. He was called in for another interview this week where they have told him they have found 4000 images. 400 category A and the rest presumably b and c. He did say that they have found some images he has made of children he has taught merged onto the bodies of other images but that he has never touched them. They have extended his bail until October now. I'm so confused- I know that it is nothing to do with me now but is he likely to go to prison? Will they be questioning the girls to see if he has touched them?

Also to add- this will mean he will have been on bail for a year. Is this normal?
Hi conifer
Cat A is the most extreme level of images and that number is quite high. Do you have the details of the investigating officer? They might be able to assist you with some questions you have. If the investigation is ongoing and he hasn't been charged yet, in my experience I didn't get much info until after charges were made. Police are unable to assist as you are innocent until they have reasonable evidence to charge and don't want to risk the case falling through by disclosing info.
As regards to the photos made, I'm unsure on what they would do in that circumstance. I guess that's for the police to decide if they believe him to have acted on these photos.
It can take sometimes years depending on which part of the country you live to get from charge to sentence. There are delays due to covid too unfortunately
Have you phoned Lucy faithful helpline? They might have better advice.
Stay strong x

Hi,
Thanks for your response. I have no details other than what he has told me. I only know about the whole thing from what he has told me. We are in the process of divorcing and selling up and I have already changed my name. I just want to know if he is going to go to prison or not really.

Thank you for that. The fact that he used images of children he used to teach and imposed them onto indecent images is surely worse?
He has shown remorse for his actions but I feel like he's being so manipulative with it. He knows how to play the system.

Do you think he'll get prison time for it? They are now questioning the girls in the photographs to see if he ever touched them. He says he didn't and I have to say he won't have. I think it would have been raised before now if he had.
I have moved on. New relationship etc but am still in the same authority abd am so scared that it will get out and everyone will know what he's done.

Hi
my teenage daughter was questioned this week because when my partner (not her dad) was arrested for downloading images she told the investigating officer she’d once walked in on him in the bathroom and he was naked. When I questioned him He swears it was an accident and my daughter tells me it was no big deal and she didn’t see anything. She tells me it’s a fuss about nothing but I had to go with her but wasn’t allowed into the actual interview so I don’t know what they asked her.
The children that were interviewed in ur husbands case will have had to have had an appropriate adult accompany them to the station so they may have been told about ur husband. I to dread it getting out what my partner had done and that I’m judged.
Stay safe. Rusty x

He was arrested in October and put on bail. They extended in December and now have extended again until October. He told me that they have had him in for a further interview where they said they'd found 4000 images with 400 being Cat A. He had to give the names of the girls in the images who were between 8 and 10 then and are now between 18-19 so thinks that they will be questioning them and presumably other children at the school.
it's all just a big mess and I'm so angry that he can move away and when it hits the papers will not be in the local area but I will. I have a poorly mum and my boyfriend's children live around us. I've done nothing wrong but will have to deal with the stigma of it and potential gossiping. I knew nothing about it and would still have no idea. All I know is what he has told me has happened.

Thank you for taking the time to reply I really appreciate it.
The police only found out about his iioc in the first place because thieves stole his car and threw his bag out of the window. In his bag were some iioc he'd printed off. They took his laptop, phone, IPad and memory stick and he told them what he would find on there (admitted everything). They then pulled him back in for a second interview and told him what they had found on the devices then told him about the pictures of the girls he had made.
