Uckfield 'legend' Christopher Howarth convicted of string of sex offences against young boys

A former Uckfield teacher and lay priest who claimed he was too fat to abuse young boys has been convicted of 26 offences. Ex-Uckfield Community College deputy headteacher Christopher Howarth stood trial on a string of sexual offences against two young boys.
One of his victims told the court how Howarth was considered a "legend" in the community and that he was initially apprehensive about going to the police, fearing no one would believe the accusations.
