PERVERT RUNS CHILD ABUSE WEBSITE FROM HIS JAIL CELL

Shamed tutor is paedophile 'agony uncle'

A TWISTED teacher jailed for downloading 11,000 vile images of
children is masterminding a website for paedophiles from behind bars.

Disgraced chemistry tutor Nigel Oldfield, 44, plays "agony uncle" to
perverts who log on to the site, which justifies paedophile activities
and demands sex with children be made legal.

The site also advises paedophiles on how to download child porn
without being caught.

Oldfield uses the telephone and the post to direct his online sex
offenders' network.

One rant on the website's message board states: "Everyone will have
sex with anyone unless they restrict themselves - so everyone is a
bisexual paedophile. The common sense position is that it is
biologically normal that adolescents are sexually attractive."

In response to a music teacher being jailed for downloading 38,000
child porn images, another posting says: "This man has harmed no-one,
and is being forced to pretend that he hates his sexuality.

"I'm in a similar situation, having been twice convicted of possession
of child pictures. I've just finished a sex offenders' course.
Two-and-a-half hours of mind-numbing tedium each week was the real
punishment."

The site also provides "model answers" to those caught downloading
child porn to help them escape prosecution and offers technical
explanations so paedophiles can claim they viewed images by mistake.

Oldfield was arrested in August 2002 after a shopper saw him taking
pictures of children in Sheffield's Meadowhall shopping centre. Police
then discovered child porn images on computers at his flat in
Doncaster. He set up the website, which the Mirror has chosen not to
name, while out on licence after serving eight months for possessing
child porn.

The site was axed in May by internet service providers after a police
probe and Oldfield's probation team ordered he return to prison.

But now he has managed to restart it and Oldfield is in contact with
fellow perverts on the running of the website, which offers a mobile
number and an email address to offer one-to-one "support".

Victims' charity Phoenix Survivors is now joining British police and
the FBI in a bid to shut down the site. Phoenix chief executive, Shy
Keenan, said: "Oldfield has somehow managed to get this up and running
right under the noses of prison guards.

"He's made contact with his cronies for the day-to-day running of the
site, while he is still on hand to offer his sick form of 'advice'.

"The worry is site users have their warped opinions reinforced by
other paedophiles and go on to abuse. It makes their behaviour seem
normal and seeks to justify their actions.

"It also helps them cover their tracks, making their crimes even
harder to detect."

The original site was shut down by US service provider iPowerweb when
it learned of the nature of the site. The site's latest version went
online last week but the new American internet provider was
unavailable for comment.

Police have vowed to monitor the website.

The latest web scandal comes as the Home Office consults on plans to
outlaw the downloading of violent and abusive images.
