School Counsellor supports Padeophille - and says he's really a good guy, honest!

Get your head around this one. The school counsellor goes to court and gives support to a padeophille and claims that he really really "cared" for them. No wonder some schools in Australia are totally screwed up.

A SCHOOL counsellor employed by the Government to help teenage girls has supported a pedophile in court, describing Gary Faux as caring and loving to his victims.

Heatherhill Secondary College student welfare co-ordinator Robyn Hughes appeared in the County Court on behalf of Faux, who admitted sexually abusing two schoolgirls.

"He cared about them and he loved them," Ms Hughes said during a pre-sentence plea hearing before Judge Jeanette Morrish.

Ms Hughes, who also sits on the Heatherhill school council, is a friend of Faux and told the court she was not concerned he may have been manipulating the girls.
