I took it to mean that he is not a very nice person.
Yes, he's (according to her) a creepy perve.
This case demonstrates how circumstances affect sentencing. If you nick something while a riot is on, you can expect a jail sentence. But if you do it in genteel Henley, and you're a cleb, then you just get a caution. And you're given column inches to pour out your heart and tell the world how you need treatment, implying that obviously you're basically a lovely person who suffers from a terrible affliction and we should all jolly well feel bloody sorry for you. By comparison, when that teenage girl who stole two left-footed trainers during the summer riots got caught, the media simply portrayed her as being an incredibly stupid thief (which she was).
