A former aide to David Cameron has been found guilty of downloading indecent images of girls. Rock was originally accused of six counts of making indecent images of children and one charge of possessing 56 indecent images of children. Rock was found not guilty with respect to three of the pictures and the jury failed to reach verdicts with respect to the remaining 12. The jury was discharged by Judge Alistair McCreath, who said Rock had brought “massive reputational harm” upon himself. Rock was told by his sister that US police were interested in the contents of his laptop.
