Jules T,
I don't know how things work in England, but here it is extremely difficult to get rid of judges. Suppose this judge IS a pedophile. One would have to prove he had committed a crime, which would require an investigation where there is no accuser. That's not really possible. If he holds his position by appointment, he would have to be proven to commit some judicial impropriety, wouldn't he? Theoretically, he could let sexual abusers go or give them light sentences for an endless variety of reasons. Nothing could be done as long as he was functioning within the law.
