Jimmy Savile 'household name' sweep

Well, I suppose they seem to be getting better at this investigation lark, this one at least had a pulse.

As long as the pulse was under age allegedly

Interesting.

Latest suspect not to be tried coz he's got Alzheimer's.

I wonder if it's the Ernest Saunders variety.

Not sure if true but I read he was still voting in the Lords less than 18 months ago. Stinks to high heaven.

He attended the House of Lords regularly right up to the day the police turned up to search his home. Hasn't been back since.

Must have been the police visit that caused such a rapid deterioration in his condition

Having his diagnosis backdated to 2009 helped as well. Not one for conspiracy theories but this is def an conspiracy. Looks like the truth will not out in this or any other case involving Westminster. There should be more public outrage over this But they seem to be getting away with it.

Surely you're not implying that there's a conspiracy of the powerful and has been one for 30 years? That would be unthinkab.... Ok, sorry, I just can't face writing the rest of that.

It's bleeding obvious that the crooked buggers have been covering this lot up for ever and this is yet another case.

"Labour peer abused me at 15. Will someone PLEASE tell me why he's never faced a court"

Because he is rich. The poor never get justice.

HTH

Victims lawyer: Rolf Harris 'woodworm' prison song 'must affect parole' - BBC News

No parole I reckon. Which I suppose is a result.

[TykeMerc]

I wonder if he's tied his kangaroo down yet.

He was certainly doing his best to at least partially maintain the Jake the Peg scenario by all accounts.

He is going to get jailed up here for sure. The SNP let al-Megrahi out and that has haunted them, they will like nothing more than getting an English Lord on trial.

Since the amalgamation of the Scottish police forces policing in Scotland has become a political football.

Lord Janner faces historical sex abuse prosecution - BBC News

I know everyone deserves justice, and I feel sorry for any victims, but where is the public interest in trying a 86 year old man with severe dementia, the trial by facts thing is ridiculous, one of the principles of law is that you must be able to defend yourself. As crass as it sounds, but I wonder trial by facts opens up a bid for compensation.
