A teacher with a secret addiction to child porn stole a hard drive from a classroom and used it to download sick images from the internet.
Jonathan Horenfeld’s double life was exposed after police raided his home in May last year.
By day the Manchester University graduate was a trusted geography teacher at Harrytown Catholic High School in Romiley, Stockport. By night he downloaded vile images of child abuse onto peer-to-peer sites where they could be viewed by other perverts.
Two laptops and two hard drives containing nearly 2000 child porn images were recovered after police investigating these sites followed an electronic trail which led them to Horenfeld’s door.
Prosecutor Simon Barrett told a Manchester Crown Court sentencing hearing that Horenfeld had stolen one of the hard drives he was using from a colleague who had left it in a classroom.
