Gay rights campaigner led a double life as leader of paedophile ring (and child molester)

A paedophile ring has been smashed after eight men were found guilty of a horrifying catalogue of more than 50 child pornography and abuse charges.Among the crimes was a shocking sexual attack carried out on a three-month-old baby boy by an executive adviser on child sex issues. James Rennie, chief executive of a publicly-funded gay rights group, was one of the men exposed yesterday as members of Scotland's biggest paedophile ring.

 

Rennie, 38, molested the toddler son of unsuspecting friends - a little boy he had been trusted to babysit - recording the abuse and sharing it with other perverts. In the course of the police investigation, the boy's parents were forced to watch a video of their baby son being violated by Rennie.

Last night, after the eight men were found guilty of a string of child sex charges at the High Court in Edinburgh, the child's parents reacted with disgust. They said: 'For over 15 years, James Rennie seemed the closest of family friends and it is hard to put into words the extent of the betrayal he has exacted upon us.' During their investigations, police recovered tens of thousands of still and moving images of the most vile child abuse.

Like fish in a barrel...

[TurtleUp]

At least people like this can’t be Scout Master ... for now.

[gedeon3]

Both should be executed.

[Maelstorm]

Just wait. Once they can legally get married and have all those hate crime bills in place what is to stop them from forcing their way into every aspect of life whether we like it or not.

[Lurker]

Had this been my child neither of these creeps would have lived to see the inside of a Courtroom.

[Maelstorm]

Oh no these are only the first two on the list. Go to the article. It is much worse.

[Maelstorm]

Here are some of the rest of the bunch:

 

[ejonesie22]

Wow, gay men involved in pedophilia? Who knew?

After all it is “natural” to be gay, right?

[Richard Kimball]

How is this a double life? I’ve read several homosexual magazines and have yet to see one that didn’t have a significant amount of attention devoted to underage “companions.”

[BenLurkin]

Homosexuality and pedophilia are inextricably linked.

[cranked]

Agreed.

[Maelstorm]

Has been that way since time memorial.

[EverOnward]

Sick pervs all.

[Clint Williams]

We will never be safe so long as we aren’t registering... oh, never mind. Not a good idea.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

Are you really surprised?

[MarineBrat]

...a little boy he had been trusted to babysit

Why anyone would let a person with a severe psycho-sexual disorder babysit a child is beyond me.

[exist]

Betcha Andrew Sullivan has child porn on his computer.

[Maelstorm]

I’m sure they were progressive modern open minded parents.

[Maelstorm]

Not at all surprised but I bet if you bring this up in polite conversation you will be looked at like you are from another planet. I will go further to say that cops could save them lots of time by profiling homosexuals. It is like shooting fish in a barrel when if comes to child porn and molestation.

[Publius6961]

And this is news exactly why?

[A message]

So is this what the homo pride crap celebrates?

[Enoughofthissocialism]

I’m shocked! SHOCKED I tell ya!

[behzinlea]

I don't read Sullivan's loathsome columns, but I do wonder whether he'll mention this bust or the Duke bust, and if so, how he'll spin it.

I'm guessing he'll just ignore it.

[MrEdd]

Why anyone would let a person with a severe psycho-sexual disorder babysit a child is beyond me.

Unfortunately it isn't tattooed on their foreheads.

[Godwin1]

Why a “double life?” His activities were all of a piece and his pattern of behavior was nothing if not consistent. Is anyone at all surprised that a “gay rights” campaigner should also be a pedophile?

[Albion Wilde]

And not a priest in the lot. What will the media do for fun?

[snarks_when_bored]

And will these worthless wastes of flesh be released on parole in just a few years?

[lilylangtree]

Horrific. There is no punishment to make him suffer enough.

[Enchante]

Meanwhile millions and millions “celebrate” the life of notorious pedophile Michael Jackson..... and some are trying to turn “Neverland” into a “Graceland” for homage and tribute.....

[dfwgator]

"Do I even need to say it?"

[TribalPrincess2U]

And you know there have got to be many if not thousands more that
don’t get caught. It’s in their genes.

[pankot]

With piano wire.

[TribalPrincess2U]

I forgot to add (in case the hate police are lurking)
Bless their hearts (cough)

[GOPmember]

It's been said already, but please indulge me and allow me to express my sarcastic disbelief....

Nooooooo! It couldn't be!!! Gay pedophiles???? But, the media tells me there's no connection between the two!!! This is clearly an isolated aberration.

Thank you. Carry on.

" In the course of the police investigation, the boy's parents were forced to watch a video of their baby son being violated by Rennie. "

Any parent stupid enough to leave their young boy with an avowed homosexual needs to see what their actions have wrought.

[taillightchaser]

These guys look like prime candidates for jobs in the ocommie
administration.

[Bulldawg Fan]

Britain has led the way on legalizing lewd, disgusting behavior. You reap what you sew.

[Peter Libra]

After all it is "natural" to be gay, right?

A terrible warning to the judiciary on granting child rearing and adoption to homosexual men.

Not though the frightened politically correct law givers will take heed.

Just damn.

[ejonesie22]

Yes, this and the Duke professor case just this week,

Seems the parallels are clear

And yet they will keep doing, because it's “natural”

[Jim from C-Town]

I read the entire article and am a little sick. The ringleader had a job in an organization for 40,000#’s a year advocating for the rights of GLTG youths. The government in Scotland provided funding to the group and has stated that they will continue to fund them . This sicko abused a three month old child, and took video and still pictures of the acts. Whatever punishment that is given to this animal is too good for him.

[Jim from C-Town]

He worked for a gay outreach program and was an admitted active homosexual. That rates as reason enough fr me not to let him near my children

[I see my hands]

"You reap what you sew"

No, no, no. You rip what you sew.

[MrEdd]

He worked for a gay outreach program and was an admitted active homosexual. That rates as reason enough fr me not to let him near my children

That's because you protect your children.

The parents here were likely what we call liberals here at FR, and I would bet they thought it showed how enlightened they were that this guy was a close friend.

[MrEdd]

[SaraJohnson]

It makes one wonder what we are going to find out about in ten years concerning what happened in the public school gay straight clubs. It is troubling to think about. I don’t understand why Americans have permitted all this to happen.

[Seeing More Clearly Now]

I don’t understand why Americans have permitted all this to happen.

The media, academia, the clergy, libraries, and the teaching profession were slowly but purposefully infiltrated starting about 40 years ago. Gay clubs were just the next stage in the progression. Everyone afraid to be labeled narrow-minded or parochical. Speaking of parochial, even liberal partochial schools have gay clubs.

If one is not going to homeschool one’s kids, it’s tough to figure out where to send a child to school these days.

[Pining_4_TX]

Yes, I’m sure they were very tolerant and open minded. I know of a case where a liberal church hired an ex-con as their nursery attendant. It was a woman who had gone to prison for child abuse! When some of the members of the congregation became upset, those in charge could not understand why they wouldn’t want to give the poor woman a chance. I doubt if any of their own kids were in the nursery.

[Onelifetogive]

Gay rights campaigner led a double life as leader of paedophile ring (and child molester.)

So, what is the double life part?

[TXBlair]

How do they know the sauna was gay?

[Morgana]

this is every reason to bring back not only public execution, but cruel and unusual punishments! How about drawn and quartered, the iron maiden, put to the rack, __________________ (fill in the blank). What ever they did in the good ol’ days!
