Judge Jonathan Haworth – Cambridge Crown Court/Chelmsford Crown Court

Here is Judge Jonathan Haworth . He is a judge who seems to think that the abuse of children is not a serious enough crime to warrant a custodial sentence. He fails to understand the long lasting impact these evil offences have on the young and vulnerable child survivors. The sentences are quite simply a insult to the victims involved.

Judge Jonathan Haworth you are hereby NAMED AND SHAMED !

Below are some examples and quotes of some of his more questionable judgements 

July 2011 – A man has walked free from court, despite pleading guilty to engaging in sexual activity with an 8-year-old girl. Marcin Gamus, 31, was given a three-year community order and ordered to attend a sex offenders’ treatment programme for inappropriately touching the youngster in Stretham.

June 2012 –  A pervert encouraged a young girl to pose for indecent pictures and secretly filmed her. Martin Spence, 61,was spared a jail sentence after he filmed the girl undressing and planted a covert camera when she was as young as 11. Spence faced a minimum sentence of six years for causing a child to be involved in pornography yet recieved the 1 yr suspended sentence, undertake a sex offender programme, & pay £400 costs

October 2011 – Shaun Bloomfieldhad been caught leering at unsuspecting children at a 16th birthday bash despite a life ban from being near kids. He could have got five years’ jail, but instead Judge Jonathan Haworth sentenced him to just six months. And because Bloomfield, 45, had spent more than half that time on remand in jail, he was freed to spend the remaining months on licence It was Bloomfield’s FOURTH breach of a Sexual Offences Prevention Order, imposed following his conviction for having sex with a girl of 12.

September 2002 – Jamie Heron, 20, tried to have sex with a 12-year-old girl he met over the internet has escaped being sent to jail. He admitted indecently assaulting the youngster. Sentencing Heron to a four month tagging order, with a daily curfew of 8pm to 6am, Judge Jonathan Haworth said he took particular account of a pre-sentence report by an experienced probation officer which stated that Heron did not have a predatory approach, had not groomed the girl for sex, did not use force, was remorseful and unlikely to be a repeat offender.

November 2010 – A CAMBRIDGE man who indecently assaulted a teenager must serve just six months in prison and be placed on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely. Derek Croxon, 38, pleaded guilty to two charges of indecently assaulting a teenage boy in 1998.

August 2004 – A TEENAGE babysitter who sexually abused a nine-year-old girl escaped jail after the mother of his victim made a plea for leniency. Nineteen-year-old Sam Ingrey was handed two years probation, 180 hours community service and ordered to attend a sex offender programme for a series of indecent assaults on the youngster

February 2008 – A MAN who secretly filmed boys in a toilet and was caught with a camera at a children’s swimming club has escaped a jail term. David Ashton was arrested at Parkside Pool in Cambridge after staff were alerted to his suspicious behaviour during a parents-only training session for eight to 16-year-olds. Judge Haworth said: “There can be no way in which that can justify a prison sentence”

July 2010 – A pensioner who created a vivid “fantasy life” online has been spared jail for downloading child pornography. Jack Allsop, 74, was arrested in November last year after downloading more than 1,100 indecent images of children

November 2010 – Pensioner Brian Smith who repeatedly abused an 8-year-old girl has been jailed for 15 months. 

October 2005 – A 45-year-old grandfather who abducted a 15-year-old girl, who is now pregnant with his child, has been jailed for just 3 years. Moses Smith, of Bar Hill, Cambs, was given a three-year sentence on Monday for having sex with the under-age girl.

September 2010 – A former London Symphony Orchestra cellist who indecently assaulted three boy pupils has been ordered to attend a sex offender treatment programme. Roger Lunn, 71, of Ely, Cambridgeshire, sexually abused the pupils between 1970 and 1989 while giving private lessons. He admitted carrying out the abuse during private lessons he gave while living in Haywards Heath, West Sussex, and Surbiton, Surrey. He was given a three-year probation order by Judge Jonathan Haworth.
