Debasish Majumder, 54, a court clerk in London, has pleaded guilty to watching pornography during a rape trial in court, including while the victim testified on her sexual assault. Majumber pleaded guilty to misconduct in public office and five counts of possession of indecent images. The latter charge appears to be child pornography found on his home computer. The Right Honorable Judge Nigel Seed (left) discovered the pornographic surfing.
Majumder was caught by the judge who looked down from the bench only to see pornographic images on his computer screen. Majumder viewed about 30 images during the two days and later said that he watched a great deal of porn and was only finding sites to watch later at home. He said that it helped with boredom in the job.
His lawyer argued that a stroke suffered months ago may have affected his judgment.
