There can be only one?

The people that helped him / ignored him are still alive and sitting comfortably. Lets make life unpleasant for them.

sadly turning a blind eye is not a crime.

and there will be awful trouble trying to prove people helped him - unless some of the victims come forward and identify them.....

it is a sad sordid affair but the only people to win will be the lawyers who make a fortune.

there was a photo of a newspaper interview with Jim Davidson doing the rounds yesterday where he is talking about a woman who was paralytically drunk (not under age) who he let sleep it off in his hotel room.

"And I never even touched her, even though she wouldn't have known anything about it, that's how much a gentleman I am" or words to that effect is the quote.

Now we all knew he was a massive arsehole, but I can't get my head round that quote, yeah, well done for not raping her Jim.

Every now and again I've heard people say "It was a different time, things were different back then" - yep, Saville was the tip of a very nasty iceberg

possibly not for much longer BBC News - Not reporting child abuse 'should be criminal offence'

[VectraMan]

They did know, at least in 2007, but suspicions abounded much earlier.

Who did know?

[eek]

Who did know?

I'm sure I knew the rumour and innuendo from 2002 at the very latest. Depends when I first met Rev Goatboy....

and no, before anyone asks, I don't know which cabinet minister...

[vetran]

Who did know?

there were a number of credible complaints placed against him with a number of police forces. There had been some before.

There was also rumours that would unseat / cause investigation of a person in almost any organisation caring for children.

What is there to cover up - the fact that a number of girls - some of who were under the age of consent fell for the 'charms' of mister saville and now regret it and see it as an opportunity to get some money?

Wow - what a horrible little person you are, guessing you don't have children of your own - or don't give a tulip about other people?
