61 yo Christopher Gordon WILLIAMS - "unguarded moment" led to arrest after 2,800 text messages to a 13 year old girl
Here is
a link to my story (with Anthony Klan and Dan Box) in The Australian
today regarding the convicted criminal Christopher Gordon WILLIAMS.
Williams was an Air Force Cadet officer working with children when
the Chief of the RAAF declared him of unsatisfactory character and
discharged him from the service. WILLIAMS had been sentenced to 3
months gaol (suspended) after being convicted on fraud and forgery
charges. He was also disbarred as a lawyer.
Somehow WILLIAMS was allowed to join the Army Cadets - working with young girls.
Today we report in The Australian that WILLIAMS was also working with girls in Scouts Australia and St John Ambulance.
The Australian Army has some very big questions to answer - how was
WILLIAMS allowed to join up with his criminal history? Why was no
action taken after 4 separate complaints by young girls against him in
the army cadets? Why was he allowed to continue to serve in the cadets
after he was arrested and charged with offences involving a 13 year old
girl in Scouts Australia?
In the police statement of facts I read yesterday, WILLIAMS gives a
chilling answer to Detective Senior Constable Sanjay Pratap's question -
why did you send the text message to a 13 year old girl suggesting she
masturbate?
Amongst other things WILLIAMS said, "It must have been an unguarded moment".
Chilling.
***
Still in the Army. Maybe someone in military intelligence / security is looking after him.

Dream of you, I am sure”; and “You are a Goddess ... one day I will give
you hugs and kisses”.

in September. During his interview with police he was asked about the
masturbation message and replied: “Yeah, that is something I’ve written
and I shouldn’t have written … I shouldn’t have put that in. I must have
been tired … It might have been something I thought but I didn’t think
I’d written.”
