Unless one has lived all one's life in an Adults Only compound in Outer Mongolia , it must be almost impossible NOT to have "Kiddy porn" on one's PC. The definitions are soooo broad that just about any picture of a child ever taken can count. Yes they might be 'rejected' later by the court or even the CPS but they will always be mentioned by the police and the press.
I, for one, am amazed we didn't see headlines like 'Kiddy Porn Found At Pervo Cliff's Luxury Pad' (never omitting either to mention what that 'pad' had cost cos anyone living in a property worth more than the average Daily Mailerer's home HAS to be a wrong'un.) surely he must have some photos of underage fans or from the charity work he has done?

Some time ago government outsourced many forces forensic departments to private companies but cops made contacts to continue putting porn onto computers before testing or during it; the Rolf case is rumoured to be one example. Many innocent people are in jail now and one of their convictions may be planted porn; much as bent cops used to plant drugs in pop star homes.

Don't quite understand what Rolf Harris and computers has to do with drugs?

Oh I remember quite well; it was particularly interesting; raised in order to get negative publicity against Rolf and I think dropped before the trial, having poisoned potential juror minds. Which judges tend to advise "put that out of your mind"; an absurd, archaic, unfair situation belonging to the old days when the now broken judicial system relied on things like Sink or Swim.

I can't remember for sure but I have a feeling that at the time of the first trial results on that subject came quite high up the list of Google search results if you just typed in his name. Perhaps there's a way to find out what results were produced for particular searches on a given date. With the jury deliberating for a period spanning two weekends, asking the judge questions on the second Friday that suggested they were split/confused before coming in with a unanimous verdict the following Monday, I couldn't help but wonder if anyone holding out on a guilty verdict had consulted or even been referred to the internet and had thought "right, that's it, he's guilty".
