Man who downloaded child porn out of 'curiosity' given suspended sentence

A credit controller who was caught with 11 video files of child pornography that he had downloaded out of "a morbid curiosity" has been given a two-year suspended sentence by Judge Katherine Delahunt.

Patrick Rafter (aged 29), with an address at Galtymore Road, Drimnagh, admitted to gardaí that "there's a couple of things on my computer that I should not have but I don't have a library or anything".
