BBC's Huw Edwards to Be Sentenced Today for Child Abuse Images
Sep 16, 2024, 06:10 AM
Former BBC news presenter Huw Edwards is due to be sentenced today at Westminster Magistrates Court after pleading guilty to receiving and creating indecent images of children. Edwards admitted to having 41 indecent images, including seven category A images, the most serious classification, which were sent to him via WhatsApp. Some of the images involved children as young as seven years old. The scandal has caused significant shock and anger within the BBC, with staff describing the situation as 'unending.' Legal experts suggest that Edwards is likely to avoid prison time. The mother of a teenager who received vile sexual messages from Edwards has expressed immense pain and suffering.
