No, but it will be very interesting to see what comes out at trial. I suspect the defence will try to portray it as an out of character panic attack or some such.

I remember some initial chat revolving around that: he'd taken a wrong turn and panicked when people started grabbing at his car.

Things could be about to get a whole lot worse for former ref David Coote, who has now been charged with making indecent images of a child:

They appear to have found something whilst checking his computer.

“The force said the charge related to a video file recovered by officers in February.
The force added the charge of making an indecent photograph related to acts such as downloading, sharing and saving material.”

You wonder how many people would fall foul of this if their laptop was inspected. I bet it would be a sizeable number.

From a solicitors website:

"The act must also be done with the knowledge and intent that the image is indecent or likely to be so, though this is interpreted broadly to include unintentional downloads if done with awareness of the potential content."

My reading of this is that the act of accidentally downloading something "indecent" whilst looking for images of whatever floats your boat will be more likely to be with "knowledge and intent" if your kink is school uniforms than SS uniforms, for example.

That aside, I'm not sure why the world knows what's allegedly been found on his laptop.
