CLERGYMAN: STRING OF CHILD SEX OFFENCES.

Upper Norwood clergyman 'could die behind bars'
after admitting string of child sex offences.

 
A clergyman from Upper Norwood was a paedophile who ran a pro-circumcision group, a court heard.

Vernon Quaintance, who was 71 on Wednesday, admitted a string of offences against five boys as young as 11 that he had met in the 1960s and 1970s.

Quaintance, who was a member of Catholic society the Order of Malta, accumulated an archive of vile images as recently as 2011, Southwark Crown Court heard.

He has served as a sacristan in the church in the Hospital of St. John and St. Elizabeth, north London, where the 'Order' conduct their masses.

Quaintance was a leader of the Gilgal Society [Brian Morris, of Australia, is also a member], a group claiming to promote male circumcision and “Its benefits in terms of health, sexual satisfaction and self-image”.

He dodged jail in 2012 after he was found guilty of possessing nine hours of child pornography on video tapes.
