ANYONE who reads the Echo regularly will have noticed a disturbing recurrent theme, where people found in possession of child pornography are let off with little more than a slap on their wrist from the courts.
Now we see that the number of sexual offences against children in Essex has greatly increased in recent times.
Could these facts by any chance be related?
