A former church deacon who used Skype to make contact with vulnerable young boys has been jailed for 32 months for a string of sex offences.
Peter Keeley-Pannett, 71, stood quietly in the dock at Guildford Crown Court, Surrey, as Judge Robert Fraser told him that he “remains a high risk of serious harm to children”.
Pannett, of Brighton, was a non-stipendiary deacon in the Diocese of Chichester in West Sussex until his arrest last November.
Keeley-Pannett used a webcam to meet boys as young as 13 years old in chatrooms. His offences spanned around two years from 2010, the court heard.
