GenQ - For the not so straight individual

More than 30 children have been rescued from possible abuse after police shut down an international paedophile ring.
It was run from the UK by 27-year-old Timothy Cox, who is due to be sentenced for child porn offences.

Agencies in 33 countries, led by the UK Child Exploitation and Online Protection centre (CEOP), investigated more than 700 suspects - 200 in the UK.

Cox, of Buxall, Suffolk, operated a website which allowed paedophiles to exchange images of abuse.

Chatroom infiltration

The internet chatroom, called "Kids the Light of Our Lives", was used by paedophiles to exchange images and videos of children being abused.

CEOP said Cox hosted the website using the pseudonym "Son of God".

After he was arrested in September 2006, undercover officers infiltrated the chatroom and collected evidence about other users.

After his arrest last year, more than 75,000 indecent and explicit images were found on Cox's computer and there was evidence that he had supplied more than 11,000 images to other site users.

Cox pleaded guilty to nine offences at an earlier hearing and will be sentenced later at Ipswich Crown Court.
