A former church organist facing prison for sexually abusing boys ran a children’s home in Polegate in the 1980s.
Michael Mytton, also known as Mark Mytton, is believed to have been at the home in Polegate although county council records do not date back that far.
Sixty-nine-year-old Mytton, also a former choirmaster, was convicted last Friday of sexual offences against boys between 23 and 26 years ago.
Mytton, of East Chiltington, and priest Keith Wilkie Denford, 78 and from Shoreham, were convicted at Hove Crown Court after a three-week trial.
The case was adjourned for sentencing on Thursday May 2, and the defendants remain on bail until then.
