A Queensland grandmother who exposed a paedophile who moved into her neighbourhood on social media is adamant she’s not a hero. 

Maxine Davey was convicted of unlawful stalking and copped a hefty fine after filming Edward James Thomson’s house and cars as a warning to Calliope locals.

But despite an outpouring of support from her community and abroad, Ms Davey chalks her actions up to nothing more than those of a concerned grandmother.

“I’m not a hero,” she told Ray Hadley. “I’m just a grandmother, I took this upon myself.”
