The Southport paedophile finally jailed after being tracked across | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
the world for years. He is the first person ever to be | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
extradited from China to the UK. Parents are worried about support | :00:30. | :00:39. | |

Salford. He can be nasty and I can A sex offender from Merseyside is | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
behind bars tonight after becoming the first person to be extradited | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
from China to the United Kingdom. The judge at Liverpool Crown Court | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
this afternoon described David Price as a very dangerous | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
individual. He admitted making and distributing | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
indecent images of children. One was younger than six. But he | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
skipped bail nearly nine years ago and went on the run. Andy Gill now | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
explains how the police tracked him down. | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
David Price's crimes began in 1990. He was jailed for four years for | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
gross indecency with a young girl. He worked in the construction | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
industry and travelled all over the world. He was married and had | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
children. After his initial conviction, he next appeared on the | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
:02:14. | :02:16. | ||
police radar in 2003. That May, priced offered -- Price offered to | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
supply images over the internet to a police officer posing as a sex | :02:20. | :02:26. | |
offender in Colorado. He offered to take into the United Arab Emirates | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
to abuse children. Police in Merseyside found hundreds of | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
indecent images of children. He took the photographs in Dubai, | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
telling bigger roles' mother that she could only make money by | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
allowing him to abuse her daughters. He took images of children and sold | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
them around the world. Price was charged but absconded | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
that October. First he flew from Manchester to India. In 2004, | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
police tracked him in Kenya and Tanzania. They think he mayor have | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
committed more offences there. -- he may have. Merseyside police | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
alerted the Chinese authorities when he travelled to Hubei Province. | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
The Crown Prosecution Service played for the American police | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
officer who first spotted Price's online activity to fly from | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
Colorado to the magistrates' court here. He gave evidence and that | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
allowed Merseyside Police to apply for an international arrest warrant. | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
There is no extradition treaty between China and here, but the | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
Chinese acted on the arrest warrant and handed Price over late last | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
year. The world has become a smaller place, and that includes | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
criminal justice. We will pursue people around the world. Price was | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
jailed for seven years, with another eight months for skipping | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
bail. The judge said he was wicked and depraved. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
Next, the parents of deaf children in Salford say their youngsters | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
could be left isolated in the classroom if plans to reassign | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
specialist teachers go ahead. The council says it is trying to make | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
better use of its staff. The parents say it will mean that their | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
hearing impaired youngsters are robbed of the vital support they | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
need. Here is David Guest. Ethan is a bright and confident | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
six-year-old. He has moderate hearing loss but attends a | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
mainstream school with support from a specialist teacher. She helps me | :04:33. | :04:40. | |
in my groups, like in my electricity group, my maths group | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
and my reading. She also goes into the classroom and works with the | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
other children in the class to help Ethan in that environment. | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Salford Council is considering changes to its provision for | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
children like Ethan, which could mean that he gets less specialist | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
support in the classroom. It would have a huge impact. He would | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
struggle with the work they are doing at school because he would | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
not have that back-up support. The British Deaf Association say | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
this is not an issue confined to Salford. They say there has been a | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
reduction in the number of teachers by the death across the country, | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
and they fear that deaf children could be marginalised in the | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
classroom. The council says that is not about cuts, it is about big | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
beat -- making better use of specialist teachers by reassigning | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
their specialisms. We are looking at other areas of the service where | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
children have special needs and we perhaps need to put more effort | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
into those. The Autistic Society for Greater | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
Manchester says that children with Asperger's syndrome find it | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
especially hard to find teaching support. They need the support to | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
help them in later life. Should that come at the expense of other | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
children with special needs? Definitely not. | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
Ethan and his mum will have to wait until later in the year until they | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
discover whether he will lose some of his support. | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
He seems like a happy little chap, doesn't he? Lots of you have been | :06:14. | :06:24. | |
:06:24. | :06:45. | ||
debating this on our Facebook page. Harmony Woodhouse told us: Natalie | :06:45. | :06:55. | |
:06:55. | :06:59. | ||
She thinks the proposals are unbelievable. Helen Jones does not | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
agree, arguing that she believes that placing children in mainstream | :07:03. | :07:13. | |
:07:13. | :07:15. | ||
Thank you for all of your responses. Police have apologised to the | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
family of the Southport Women murdered by her husband just weeks | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
after she had complained to them that he was harassing her. Kate | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Mott's call was logged by Merseyside police as "adults | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
quarrelling over divorce". In fact, her husband could have faced arrest | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
for breaching a court order set up to protect her. The Independent | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
Police Commission said there were failings at every stage of the case. | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
Cull, a nurse, was found dead in her car off a country road in | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
Scarisbrick near Southport in 20th January 10. She had been strangled | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
by her husband, who then tried to make it look like a car crash. He | :07:53. | :08:03. | |
:08:03. | :08:04. | ||
even made an emergency call to try to cover his tracks. The car was | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
not there. Brent Mott is serving life for | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
murder. She had obtained an non- molestation order to stop her from | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
harming her. Any breach would be an arrestable offence. She complained | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
to police about a breach but they failed to log details of the call | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
properly, failed to deploy a police officer, wrongly decided there was | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
no power of arrest and failed to check Brent Mott's history on the | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
police come -- police computer. Police actually do have policies to | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
deal with incidents of this nature. One would hope this is an isolated | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
incident and that lessons can be learned. The force has acknowledged | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
failings and says that a senior officer has met and apologised to | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
the family. It said it is reviewing its domestic abuse policy and has | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
strengthened the way it deals with such cases. I think in | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
circumstances like this where someone has lost their life, sorry | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
is never enough. I am very pleased that Merseyside police have offered | :09:12. | :09:20. | |
that apology. Elsewhere in news from the north- | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
west, tributes have been paid to our former mountain rescue worker | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
who has died in an accident in California. Michael Machell died at | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
cascade faults in Lake Tahoe on Saturday. He attended 170 incidents | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
with the Langdale and Ambleside mountain rescue team. | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
An inspection has found a special unit for women with mental health | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
problems at a jail in Cheshire to be wholly unsuitable. The Chief | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
Inspector for Prisons says the prison is improving but, despite | :09:54. | :10:01. | |
the best efforts of staff, services were stretched. The unit may now be | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
updated or replace. Rail users in Burnley are plot are | :10:05. | :10:13. | |
-- -- are welcoming plans to update -- upgrade to a station in the 10th. | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
Journey times to Manchester will be cut in half. | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
A man has been jailed for setting a BBC Radio Manchester radio car on | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
fire during last summer's disturbances in Salford. The 23- | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
year-old was sentenced to five-and- a-half years at Manchester Crown | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
Court. Speculation is growing that there | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
could be a directly elected Mayor in Liverpool, without asking the | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
voters if they want one in the first place. The vote is due to | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
take place in May, but could be cancelled. | :10:51. | :10:57. | |
The issue of Mayors is becoming a hot topic. What is going on here? | :10:57. | :11:06. | |
This is all about how to run a city. At the moment, people elect a | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
councillor and the councillors elect a leader. Here in Liverpool, | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
there is going to be a referendum on the issue of whether to change | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
to a Mayor or not in May. That is a decision made by the Government. | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
There at -- there is speculation that the City Council may be | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
swinging round, saying, yes, we will change the system and perhaps | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
do it without a referendum. I think that all the parties are being | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
pushed down the route to been forced to say where they stand. | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
Labour is essentially saying that, if it comes with extra powers and | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
perhaps extra money, they would be much more keen on the idea. | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
A week from today, I think, the people of Salford will be telling | :11:49. | :11:57. | |
the rest of us whether they want an elected Mayor or not. | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
That is not a referendum that is being forced upon them by the | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
Governor Michael the council, it is simply that 5% of the electorate | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
there decided that they wanted a river -- a referendum. So they will | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
get a vote. That takes place on Thursday. It is not clear how many | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
people will be bothered to vote, but it will be an important | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
decision that has been taken. The crucial difference is that, in | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
Salford, voters will take the decision. Here in Liverpool, it | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
could be the voters or simply the council. What it depends on here is | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
for the Government to make a decision on what those extra powers | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
could be and when they tell them, before the council decides where it | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
stands. Thank you. Could Salford be getting | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
its own Boris Johnson? There is more about that on the | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
Sunday Politics this weekend. The Mansfield has had a Mayor for a | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
decade. Could Salford following their footsteps? Find out on Sunday. | :13:00. | :13:10. | |

It is not the usual job advert. Working in a word observatory. It | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
will not be everybody's cup of tea, but a handful of people have | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
applied for one of the most isolated jobs are out there, one a | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
tiny island off the Isle of Man. It is so far away from the hustle | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
and bustle that 50 % of the population leaving would mean you | :13:31. | :13:37. | |
would be on your own. It is our own private island. If you like birds | :13:37. | :13:43. | |
and wildlife, you cannot be being on here. It is the perfect breeding | :13:43. | :13:51. | |
ground for seals. It is around 400 metres off the | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
south coast of the Isle of Man. You could walk there in a matter of | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
minutes, but the sea causes a huge problem. The strong wind create a | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
massive barrier to even get there, so the inhabitants can be cut off | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
for weeks on end. At the same time, that isolation makes it the perfect | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
place for a bird sanctuary. We have just passed 600 birds ringed. We do | :14:15. | :14:25. | |
not catch every the hour that passes through. You would have to | :14:25. | :14:35. | |
rely on a welter water if you love you, ate hardly Ehlich ate -- well | :14:35. | :14:42. | |
for water, hardly any electricity. It is quiet, you are left your own | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
devices. I love it here. Despite the lack of human life, there is | :14:48. | :14:58. | |
:14:58. | :14:58. | ||
plenty of wildlife. Few cities honour their war dead | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
like Liverpool. Inside the town hall, an entire room is a memorial | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
to those killed in the First World War. One wall is a list of all | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
those who died. For decades, many names have been missing. Only now | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
has the council been able to put things right. | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
Marie Dean and her children have come from Oxfordshire to see | :15:20. | :15:27. | |
justice done. Two relatives died in the Great War. They went their | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
separate ways and eventually it went off to France to fight and die | :15:31. | :15:39. | |
within a year of each other. They fought for our country and saved | :15:39. | :15:49. | |
:15:49. | :15:51. | ||
our country. If they are not honour, it is like they did nothing. In the | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
1920s, the country promised never to forget its war dead. A room in | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
the town hall was dedicated to their memory. 13,000 enlisted, but | :16:02. | :16:11. | |
many others were forgotten. Some people died after the war, | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
were not included in the figures. There was a whole host of reasons. | :16:17. | :16:25. | |
What we did at that time was tried to get as many as possible and | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
subsequently have tried to include every person we can. Even a century | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
on, new names are coming to light. Today, 21 names were added to the | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
list. This is my great uncle, he was from Liverpool and was in the | :16:40. | :16:50. | |
:16:50. | :16:57. | ||
Royal Welch Fusiliers. He was sadly killed in 1917. -- Welsh. 150 names | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
have been added since the 1920s. The council will continue to add | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
names to ensure all of them are honoured. | :17:06. | :17:14. | |
It is a wonderful tribute. Richard has joined us. Now the sport. | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
Developing news at Northwich Victoria but not what the fans | :17:17. | :17:25. | |
might want to hear. Bad news for the club. The company that owns the | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
ground has said Northwich Victoria will not be allowed to play any | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
more games there. The club had been hoping for a compromise to at least | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
play there until the end of the season. The chairman gave us this | :17:35. | :17:42. | |
reaction. It is devastating for the fans and the clubs. The club is 130 | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:56. | ||
years old. The fans have been so bothered by this. They are homeless. | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
What do they do now? It looks as though the ground, built about six | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
years ago for a cost of �4 million, will be demolished. The club have | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
been told without a stadium it is ridiculous, they have been told | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
they can keep the floodlights and the pitch. They will be trying to | :18:18. | :18:25. | |
mount a legal challenge. If it is often said London has the lion's | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
share of wealth, but when it comes to football the situation is | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
reversed. Manchester City and Manchester | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
United could have a monopoly on the trophies. Tottenham Hotspur will | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
arrive at the Etihad Stadium and Manchester United will play Arsenal. | :18:40. | :18:50. | |
:18:50. | :18:54. | ||
London is calling, but is anyone The last time this quartet clashed, | :18:54. | :19:04. | |
:19:04. | :19:06. | ||
it was Manchester 13, London 3. But the challenge from the capital has | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
not gone away. Tottenham Hotspur are a very strong team. They are | :19:13. | :19:20. | |
good players. For me they are one of the best teams. I would not want | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
to go there and sit back. We have people that can hurt them. I will | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
take the game to them. Spurs are a good team. No doubt about it. Here, | :19:30. | :19:36. | |
we should be them. Are you worried about the challenge from London? | :19:37. | :19:46. | |
:19:47. | :19:47. | ||
There are lots of trains to It was painful to be there at the | :19:47. | :19:57. | |
:19:57. | :20:01. | ||
time, but I fear nothing. We have survived big disappointments. | :20:01. | :20:11. | |
:20:11. | :20:12. | ||
years ago, when it was combustible, Roy Keane having a love match in | :20:12. | :20:19. | |
the tunnel. It has not been like that for three years. Argue worried | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
about the challenge from London? think challenge is more from | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
Manchester. Manchester, definitely. I think Manchester United are more | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
consistent. If results end up the way of Manchester, this could be | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
the weekend where the title race goes from a tale of two laxities, | :20:39. | :20:49. | |
to a tale of one city. -- two cities. Amir Khan says Lamont | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
Peterson is running scared of a rematch. Earlier this week, the | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
Bolton boxer withdrew his appeal to the IBF after his controversial | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
points that the in Washington. He said the hearing would not have | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
been fair. The WBA has ordered a rematch, but speaking exclusively | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
to the BBC, he says Lamont Peterson is not keen to face him again. | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
will not win the next fight. We offered him a great fight, the most | :21:14. | :21:20. | |
money he will ever make. 50 % is a great result. This is not an offer | :21:20. | :21:28. | |
I would make with anyone. If I was him I would take the fight. Rugby | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
Union, and a very disappointing night for Sale Sharks. They were | :21:31. | :21:41. | |
knocked out of the Amlin Cup by a Brive. Three penalties and a dry | :21:41. | :21:49. | |
made the final score 19 to nine. We have been following the progress | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
of some of our Olympic hopefuls over the last few months. We have a | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
