But hitting the photography angle its another one of those making it difficult for the average photographer out and about with a camera..

Quote "Police also found that he had been filming girls in parks and other public places and editing the footage with child porn."

In 2005, Saunders was convicted of a sexual assault after photographing a five-year-old girl at a gym where he was working as a party organiser.

This is the only bit that concerns me, as it makes it sound as though photographing a five-year-old counts as sexual assault.

Only the daily mail crowd will make any noise about "pedos with cameras" Most sensible people will see this for what it is: One sick person who happens to be a photographer. I wouldn't worry.
