Jimmy Savile 'household name' sweep

[Mich the Tester]

Tie me kangaroo down, sport.

It's enough to raise serious questions about Jake the Peg's 'extra leg'.

Benny Hill seems to be the most respectful celebrity these days.

Interestng who has *not* been nabbed...

Rock stars, odd that really, when you consider that several have written in their autobiographies not only admitting having sex with under age girls but giving their names.

Then again, these are *rich* people, trust me when I say the police are a lot more circumspect when you're rich. The standard of proof for a Rolling Stone is higher than them merely going on TV to say they did it.

For the avoidance of doubt, the pay on (say) Coronation Street doesn't make anyone rich even if you do it for years, many here earn more than its stars.

Then there's BBC management, its well known that they use their "influence" on young aspiring celebs and have done so since they were just a radio station.

Again, not one seems even to have been questioned.

The BBC has had any number of priests on its payroll, it defies belief that you can employ that many without some being rapists, but again we see the deference pattern in the police, they required hundreds of witnesses and a lot of media pressure to even think of going after the BBC as an outfit, the Christian churces could have their own snuff channel on the web where they raped children live and the police would still treat this as a "few rotten apples" and not even bother to check their records.

It's been a long time, but I feel that I can finally go public. I would like to thank all those brave people plus the dedication of the police than enables me to tell my story.

Yes. I was abused. I was held down by six of those St Trinians stars, the ones in suzzies, and they. well, they did things to me.
It were 'orrible



but I forgive them

Kevin Webster trial starts tomorrow. Do you reckon he'll be found guilty or come up smelling of Rosie?

I was 13 when I was abused by two girls ages16. I enjoyed it very much, it was my first experience. I don't regret it.

Nothing hopefully.

Nothing hopefully.

Well either there's room for doubt (which is why I'd like to see a 'not proven' verdict introduced) or they've lied about being raped.

Falsely accusing someone of rape is almost as bad as the offence itself.

All we know is that the jury believed there to be reasonable doubt.
