Woman Pedophile Banned From Contact with Children Overturned by Judge
A middle-class churchgoer convicted with her lover of being part of a paedophile ring has overturned a ban on having unsupervised contact with children.
Monica McCanch, who is in her late 60s, had her indefinite sexual offences prevention order (SOPO) lifted by a judge and is now likely to also apply to have her name removed from the sex offenders register.
McCanch, formerly of Ash, near Canterbury, Kent, was jailed for six years in September 2007 after admitting four offences of sexual activity with a child and one of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child.
