A CONVICTED child porn pervert has left his job at fast food giants McDonald's.
Lee Robert-Shaw, of Tewkesbury Close, Baxenden, admitted child porn charges after more than 110 indecent photographs and videos were found on his computer.
Now his former bosses at McDonald's in Rising Bridge, have confirmed that the 23-year-old was subjected to internal disciplinary action following his charge.
And a spokesman said that the firm has now parted company with him, although they would not confirm if hehad been sacked or resigned.
Robert-Shaw pleaded guilty to 28 charges of making an indecent image of a child when he appeared at Burnley Crown Court.
Police said a proportion of the images and videos were of the most serious "level five" category.
A spokesman for McDonald's said that as soon as Robert-Shaw was arrested in July 2006 disciplinary procedures were started.
She said: "There is not a great deal we can say because of data protection regulations.
"When we found out he had been arrested we took the relevant disciplinary action.
"He no longer works for the company."
When arrested 104 indecent images of children were found on his computer along with seven video clips, the court was told.
Robert-Shaw has been placed on the sex offenders register while he awaits sentence in June.

Know the Facts wrote:I too know of Lee and his friends, I also thought they were weird when they hung around little kids all the time but coz one of them was Lee's little brother I thought that they might be looking out for him, but now I wonder. It makes me sick to think of all the times I saw Lee & his friends with these young kids, lets hope people have the sense to keep their kids away from him in future coz I think 'Know The Facts' might have a point about his 'friends' being involved too. As for the 'wannabe' reporter, I think you need some English lessons mate !!
I have known Lee for a long time and I have always had my doubts about him and the people he hangs around with, they spend a lot of time hanging around wherever there are children, which I always thought was inappropiate. My little sister was friends with Lee\'s younger brother and he once told her that his brother \'does things to him and takes pictures\', from that day my parents have stopped my sister having anything to do with the family. I susoect that the only reason he ever got a job at McDonalds was so that he could perv over the kids, it makes me sick to think that he probably looked at my baby sister in his perverted way. I think the \'friends\' sticking up for him are as involved in all this as Lee is and therefore trying to cover their own backs. They are all very sick people who normal society needs protecting against. Disgusted, Brainless Britain and Lancashire, you all have very good and valid points, maybe more people should think about would anyone who was truly innocent REALLY plead guilty ??

Read the facts from the people who actually know what is going on. He has be en forced to say Guilty. Police have offered a bribe. Say guilty no jail time. Say no guilty well throw the book at you even though your innocent. So read wait for the facts to be published which they wont. Or have a chat with him to hear his side of the story.
