Lib Dem council candidate sentenced in indecent images case



The Met’s Paedophile Unit began an investigation and in 2006 arrested Lindon at his home address and seized his computer. On it they found 2,500 indecent images of children and established he had been sharing images with a network of 47 other online paedophiles.

All 47 people have now been identified, some have now been dealt with through the courts and the others’ details have been given to relevant UK forces and to US law enforcement, where the majority were from.

Lindon pleaded guilty on 13.11.06 and was also ordered to pay £1,500 costs and placed on the sex offenders register for life. He was also given a sexual offender prevention order.
