In 1992, police raided Righton’s home and found child porn videos, many hard-core, shot in Amsterdam, and correspondence with pedophiles around the world, proving that had exploited, raped and prostituted children. He got off with a £900 fine (a couple of weeks' salary).

Righton retired and went to live in a cottage on the estate of his friend Lord Henniker, in Thornham Magna, North Suffolk, where he kept up his connections with social services, and arranged special “holidays” on the estate for vulnerable children from Islington (now notorious for the organized abuse of children in care-homes there). The Chief Constable of Suffolk visited Henniker personally to warn him that Righton was a convicted pedophile, but he ignored this advice, and Righton was able to continue hosting children on the estate until his death in 2007.<ref>(Stewart Payne and Eileen Fairweather, ‘Country house hideaway of disgraced care chief’, Evening Standard, May 6th, 1993).</ref>
