Repeat sex attackers include Robert Black, 66, jailed for life for four child murders and who was convicted for two sex attacks as a teenager, and Roy Whiting, 54, who was already a convicted paedophile when he abducted and murdered eight-year-old Sarah Payne in 2000.

Others such as Fred West were repeat sex offenders from their teenage years and because they "got away with it", things progressed.

This simply isn’t true. In 2007, child sex-abuse researcher Adrian Powell wrote as follows in his book Paedophiles, child abuse and the Internet:
‘The rate of reoffending is of major concern, as it is estimated that a paedophile offender is 90% likely to reoffend…once a paedophile chooses to offend against a victim, the desire becomes compulsive.’
