British Prime Minister David Cameron’s porn filter adviser fronts court over child indecency rap.
A former senior aide to David Cameron is facing trial at Southwark crown court accused of making and possessing scores of child abuse images.
Patrick Rock, 63, who was one of the government's chief advisers on policy for online pornography filters, appeared at Westminster magistrates court in London on Thursday. He was charged with three offences of making child abuse images and one of possessing 62 indecent images of children. Crown Prosecution Service lawyers assessed the images as level C, the lowest category.
