'Unhand me, servant!' shouts enraged child pornographer Andrew Liddington Shore as sheriff's officers drag him off to the cells Andrew Liddington Shore claimed that he had a defence against downloading 2000 images and 39 videos of underage girls because his motive was religious. A CHILD pornographer who claimed he was merely "praying" over downloaded images has been dragged kicking and screaming from court and into custody. Andrew Liddington Shore lost all composure this afternoon when District Court Judge Gordon Barrett revoked his bail because he had repeatedly ignored an order to obtain a lawyer. "Unhand me, servant," he yelled as two courts sheriff's officers tried to escort him into the cells. He's (Judge Barrett) got no right to order anything, he's under charges of malfeasance, misfeasance and nonfeasance. How do you plead, Mr Barrett? Shore, 74, of Hallett Cove, has been before the state's courts since 2008. He initially pleaded guilty to downloading 2000 images and 39 videos of underage girls but, in October, sought to withdraw that plea, claiming he had a defence on religious grounds . "My motive was not prurient but it was at assisting the children involved," he said, insisting he was praying over the images. Asked whether he derived sexual pleasure, he responded: "That belongs in the sanctity of the privacy of my home, it's a matter between myself and God." Judge Barrett refused to allow Shore to withdraw his plea. On two occasions, Judge Barrett has remanded Shore on continuing bail and ordered he attend the offices of the Legal Services Commission to obtain counsel's advice. Today, Shore - accompanied by his disabled wife, for whom he serves as carer - arrived at court late. He told Judge Barrett he had phoned the commission three times without receiving an answer to his inquiries. "Mr Shore, it is plain you have not done what I told you to do, and directed you to do as a matter of law ... you have disobeyed my order," Judge Barrett replied. I have been as patient as I'm willing to be with you, Mr Shore - I'm no longer willing to be patient. You have made it impossible for me to proceed (with this case)... there is a way, of course, in which I can ensure that the matter proceeds but it does not involve you being free. Shore then said he did not recognise the authority of the court, claiming the charges against him violated several United Nations and international treaties. "Your Honour, I accuse you of malfeasance in public office," he said. I consider you not to be a fit and proper person to be hearing this case. Judge Barrett revoked Shore's bail and remanded him in custody, prompting another angry outburst. "Don't touch me, you are a servant," he told the sheriff's officers. Your Honour, you are in no position to make any orders, you are relieved of your supervision. I do not consent to this, I do not consent to my wife being victimised by your intransigence. Judge Barrett ordered the sheriff's officers to make contact with Mrs Shore's doctors and arrange immediate care for her.
