A convicted child abuser has been allowed to fly to Greece before his sentencing takes place.
Matthew Thompson pled guilty to ten offences including: assaulting a child under 13 by penetration on ten occasions, possession of extreme pornography depicting sexual activity with an animal, sexual activity with a child and taking indecent images of girls.
Incredibly, he has been given permission to fly to the Greek island of Kos for a week.
According to LBC:
Thompson has been let out on bail and will be sentenced on November 18, a few weeks after he comes home from his week-long break.
After he pleaded guilty to the offences at Bradford Crown Court on Wednesday, his lawyer told the judge that he would still like to go on his pre-booked holiday.
“You’ve been on bail and I’m not going to revoke your bail simply because you have entered honest pleas.”
Thompson will have to sign on with local police as a sex offender when he comes back from his holiday.
Following the application, Judge Gibson told Thompson: “You’ve pleaded guilty and you will of course get proper credit for your guilty pleas in due course when you’re sentenced.
Let’s hope that someone informs the authorities on the Island of Kos that a filthy, putrid child abuser is coming their way. I mean, really!?!
Has Judge Gibson lost his fucking mind?
This monster raped a child ten times and you turn him loose on a holiday Island?
Let’s hope the Greeks hear about this and refuse him entry.
I’m stunned.
