Chris Denning
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chris Denning (born May 10, 1941 in Hayes, Middlesex) is an English disc jockey. He worked for Radio Luxembourg and Radio London before teaming up with Kenny Everett on the programme Where It's At on the BBC's Light Programme. He was also one of the original DJs on BBC Radio 1.
Convicted on numerous occasions for sexually abusing boys under the age of consent, Denning was involved with Jonathan King and Rob Randall at the Walton Hop disco in Walton on Thames, Surrey. King, Randall, and Denning allegedly used this disco as a grooming parlour for teenage victims.[1]
After his release, Denning went to live in Slovakia. The Sun newspaper tracked him down to a location on the Austria-Slovakia border [2] and alerted Austrian authorities. He was deported to England, where he was arrested upon arrival at Heathrow Airport. He is now serving 4 years in prison for child sex offences.
