999 worker Jason Hodson convicted of child porn
An ambulance worker has been convicted of making more than 11,000 child porn images.
Cops discovered the disgusting images after raiding the home of emergency call operator Jason Hodson, 24, in Whyteleafe.
Investigators found the sickening pictures, which included young girls being raped and babies being molested, on both his two home computers, his mobile phone, his former girlfriend's computer and also his work laptop, Kingston Crown Court heard.
He denied the 50 specimen charges of making indecent pics but it was revealed that he had already been convicted in October of downloading 44 child porn images.
Chatroom data was also recovered. He wasvisited sick sites like "Masturbation Club" and "ABC Lolitas" where he called himself Juicy Lucy - he had spoke with other members like Hard Daddy, Daddy Loves You and asked them: "Where can I find pictures of child sex?"
Despite the damming evidence his defence insisted anyone of the 30 to 40 staff members at the call centre could have downloaded the images as they shared computers, that someone else could have used his phone and that his long journey to work meant he could not have been sourcing the images online.
Judge Martin Binning rejected this and he will be convicted of possessing child porn - the case was adjourned for pre-sentence reports until January 28.

An ambulance controller has been convicted of making more than 11,000 child porn images.
The sickening pictures, which included young girls being raped and babies being molested, were found after a police raid on Jason Hodson's home in Whyteleafe Hill, Whyteleafe.
The stash, found on both his two home computers, his mobile phone, his former girlfriend's computer and also his work laptop, also included chatroom messages, Kingston Crown Court heard.
Calling himself Juicy Lucy, he had exchanged messages with the likes of Hard Daddy, She Wolf, R U Like Us and Daddy Loves You.
Hodson, 24, an emergency call operator based in Banstead, had denied 50 specimen charges of making indecent images.

He had already been convicted in October of downloading 44 child porn images.
The case was adjourned for pre-sentence reports until January 28.
Hodson had insisted that others had used his computers to find the lewd material.
But Judge Martin Binning said no two people could have committed all these offences.
He concluded that Hodson was the person who posted messages on chat sites such as the Masturbation Club, visited ABC Lolitas and had written to another user saying: "Where can I find pictures of child sex?"
Graham Smith, prosecuting, said: "The sheer volume of indecent material from computer to computer is consistent with this defendant's availability of access to them.
"There is an irresistible argument that this defendant, having already been convicted of having 44 images, is responsible for the other 11,800 or so images."
George Zachary, defending, said: "There is no direct evidence in this case like, for instance, a webcam or witnesses.
"The prosecution is base on inference."
He said 30 to 40 people would work at the ambulance HQ during a typical shift, any of whom could have downloaded the offensive material.
Mr Zachary added: "People shared computers there occasionally, and other people could have used the defendant's mobile phone."
He said the driving time between Hodson's home and the ambulance base, up to an hour at busy times, suggested he could not have been at home when some of the offences were said to have been committed at a computer there.
Blond Hodson, who has dyed his hair black since his previous court appearance, denied the charges under cross-examination.
