Paedophile sentence under review
The Court of Appeal is to review the case of a paedophile who committed a string of sex attacks against children.
Michael Porter, 38, of Okehampton Close, north London, was given a three-year community rehabilitation order for abusing young boys.
The Attorney General has ruled Porter's sentence, imposed at Bristol Crown Court last month, was "unduly lenient".
Porter preyed on vulnerable victims in Clevedon, Somerset for 14 years. One of his victims was an 18-month-old baby.
'Future hearing'
He had used his trusted position as a ministerial servant in the Jehovah's Witnesses to abuse the children, the court had heard.
Porter pleaded guilty to 25 counts of indecent assault and gross indecency on young boys.
The Court of Appeal will now review the case to decide whether to increase Porter's sentence.
A statement from the Attorney General's office said: "After a careful review, the Attorney General Baroness Scotland has decided to refer the sentence.
"She considers the sentence to be unduly lenient.
"It will now be for the Court of Appeal to decide at a future hearing whether or not to increase the sentence."
Judge Tom Crowther opted not to jail the self-confessed paedophile after hearing that he had undergone therapy.
