Arrogant smarmy bastard, now what happens when he (or someone of his ilk) is found innocent?
Not doubting he is thoroughly unpleasant morally but I suspect he isn't stupid enough to leave evidence / commit crimes against minors. Maybe I'm wrong.
I am sure he will go for the Jugular if found innocent., might be interesting if he brings a good portion of plod into disrepute..Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

I do think Savile was a different kettle of fish and my post doesn't refer to the likes of him....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

I am sure today will be far more satisfying in the Hamilton household than when they received the libel cheque from him.Comment

Originally posted by Lockhouse View PostI hope he gets off. Some of this happened nearly 50 years ago and it was a different world then. You can't criminally try yesterday's history by today's context, you can only judge it in the subjective sense and move on. He was just over 20 then, he's 70 now. I don't expect you to agree with me, I just think the massive amounts of money being spent on these cases should be used to detect and prosecute current day paedos and abusers, not old men. These aren't war criminals and this isn't Nuremburg. It is a witch hunt though and there are scores being settled here.
