Married to an upper-class paedophile

How members of the Establishment refused to accept my husband's depravity

The five-year-old girl cowers naked and crying in a corner. She is so frightened that she wets herself.

One of the men in the room hits her repeatedly. The others laugh.

Another man picks her up and throws her face down on the bed. Then the men rape her. She dies soon afterwards of her injuries.

I apologise for being so brutally explicit, but this is the scenario that the respected art historian and curator Roger Took boasted repeatedly about in internet 'chat rooms' to fellow paedophiles.

In the chat rooms, Took relates how a Dutch man bought the child in Cambodia, kept her for a week and how Took was part of the group who enjoyed raping her one night.

After Took was arrested last April, the police interviewed him in connection with the child's murder, but Took insisted it was mere fantasy and the police passed the case on to Interpol.

Fantasy it may be, but the fact that so many like-minded men laughed and fantasised over a helpless child's torture, terror and death is chilling and profoundly disturbing.

Took was a leading member of Britain's art Establishment and as I shall show later, what is perhaps most shocking of all is the way many of his distinguished colleagues appeared to excuse his behaviour, even bringing pressure on his wife, Pat, to hush the whole episode up.

Indeed, this is one of the reasons she has now decided to go public.

Roger Took was sentenced this February to a minimum of four-and-a-half years in prison as part of an indeterminate sentence for 17 other crimes relating to child abuse.

They included molesting two of his step-granddaughters and the possession of 260 photographs, including 102 'Level 5s', which mean they contain images of children being tortured or raped.

One photograph showed a baby being violated. Many images showed small children shackled to chairs or bars, in obvious pain.

The police recovered these images from Took's laptop.

There were, apparently, thousands more on his main computer, but the hard drive had broken and police experts were unable to retrieve them.

When police raided Took's home, they found a locked case containing a large bundle of photographs of naked young Russian women, believed to be prostitutes, one having sex with Took, and clippings of children's hair.

Also on Took's laptop were 742 chatroom logs of a sexual nature relating to children, adding up to more than 1,500 pages.

Took posed as 'Dad of 2 Superkids' in the chat rooms and, pretending they were his daughters, posted photographs of his step-granddaughters, Grace aged nine and Gillian aged 11, inviting others in the chat room to fantasise over the images.

Judge Blacksell, presiding over the sentencing hearing, referred to the chat logs as 'unrestrained filth and depravity of the worst type'.

Depravity exists and we are all aware that there are dangerous paedophiles at large.

However, what is remarkable about Took's case is that his respectability and status blinded some who knew him to the true horror of his crimes and, to an extent, protected him from the public outrage that normally follows the exposure of such appalling acts against children.

After his conviction, one of his woman friends e-mailed Took's wife, Pat, saying: 'I choose God's way and I know He would forgive Roger.

'We have no right to judge and to destroy a person's life when he wants to live a different life.'

The woman clearly could not, or chose not to, grasp the destruction Took himself had wrought.
