He should appeal, hardly as serious as having indecent images on your phone and not reporting it.

I totally agree but, you have to wonder about the mentality of some officers and their ethics.  It is still not as serious as viewing images of Child Porn. On a sliding scale of seriousness the first case is perhaps 7 whilst the child porn one is, for me, a 10.

[Reasonable Man + 1,132]

Using phone while driving at speed at night - a known high risk activity that has resulted in the deaths of many - seriousness 8/10. 
Failing to report having received a photograph on your phone and not deleting it 2/10.

Hmm, the sentencing guideline say otherwise.

Bet it wouldn't be the paedophile she protected.

Not sure if the is proof of Darwin's theory at its best or not?

I think, as a decrepit nearly 60 year old, I have nothing to fear from a paedophile. I do fear being run off the road by a distracted driver more. 
Aside from that she was protecting her not a paedophile sister.

You would not say that if you had young grand children. Having worked in Vice child porn is about as low as anyone can go. The fact that she chose not to report the matter speaks for itself. Any normal person would be repulsed.

Have you ever met a victim of a paedophile. The youngest one I have had dealings with was 5 years of age, five years of age.  She was terrified of people and badly injured, physically and mentally.

Well I do have grand children, and I have put paedos before the court who have gone away for many years.
And I still say that as a late middle-aged man I personally have more to fear from a bad driver than someone with a sexual interest in children.  
One could kill me without seeing me. The other would see me and have absolutely no interest in me.

That sounds as if you have no concern for children for paedophiles certainly would not have any interest in you. The number of Paedophiles who are being prosecuted is quite frightening and yet those numbers are only scratching at the surface.

A FOI request to Mersey side had the following response.  "The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) holds prosecution data for child abuse flagged sexual offences in the Merseyside & Cheshire area, broken down by convictions and non-convictions. It should be noted that this data covers all flagged child abuse defendants prosecuted with a principal offence of ‘sexual offences’ and is not specifically confined to exploitation. In the last five years (2013-14 to 2017-18) there have been 1,655 prosecutions. In order to ascertain whether these prosecutions were successful or unsuccessful as a result of intervention from “paedophile hunters” a manual review of each of these files would be required".   

That figure would beat all fatal accidents but the majority would have been through drink driving and speeding.

According to the COP and the NCA there are 144,000 Paedophiles registered on the dark web sites. That is frightening and they start off by viewing repulsive child porn photographs and video's.

You’ve chosen to hijack an exchange between me and SD, twist it into something different, copy and paste something you’ve found on a Google search to ‘prove’ your point. While making your customary personal snide comments. 
If it makes you feel any better, apart from the unfounded personal attack, I agree with everything you’ve managed to paste onto your post. Well done!

[Zulu 22 + 4,260]

And, the point being that SD and I disagree with you and it is a forum for discussion. I thought that you wanted  facts checking and being shared. 

One quote is from a gov.uk site and the other from a report in the Guardian which quoted details from the COP and NCA regarding numbers of paedophiles.
