Jimmy Savile - Sexual Predator

Combat squirrel · 10 Oct 2012 at 12:07

I have to be honest and say I dont get this.

Ok women have come forward, could it be a case of 1 said it ? random people are jumping on a band wagon?

It could be all rubbish or all totally true, strange either way :S

VILE Jimmy Savile DID prey on young girls — and got away with it for HALF A CENTURY, cops feared yesterday.

What an awful headline, atleast let the investigation run it's course.

I 100% agree, news agencies shouldn't be able to use such sensationalist headlines which are misleading.

Whilst I agree that it's unfair that he can't defend himself, on the flip side it's also unfair that he can't be punished as he's dead. Swings and roundabouts really. I think the main point and reason to push forward with this is to try to prevent anything similar from happening in future.

Surely he'd have to be found guilty before this could happen?

Edit... I also think things are very different today and naturally things like this wouldn't occur (to the extent they might have decades ago)

If you actually read my post I didn't say he was guilty (but it is looking extremely likely). If he is/was guilty then it is impossible to punish him if he is dead isn't it?

Awaiting new Sun headline to read "Freddie Starr ate my beaver!"

That will have the animal rights brigade up in arms.

Does that mean "We don't want it to be spraypainted on"?

Probably.

If plaques about him have already been defaced his gravestone was probably next on the list. Not even been proven yet but the news paper does love its trial by media approach.

It looks like it is a fair bit more than just one girl. But I have no doubt some are just jumping on the bandwagon.

But then there may be some still not wanting to come forward. Old memories, disruption to family etc.

I know somebody who could do that.

You know Simone who can prevent children being abused in future?

Brilliant get them on it.

I can't read that small, what is the spelling mistake?

But no one bargained on a potted biography referring to him as "Chieftan of Lochaber Highland Games" in 18mm gold letters on one of the 18inch thick slabs.

Funeral Director Robert Morphet could not understand how the mistake had happened but said: "It will be put right - whatever it takes."

Freddie Starr has suffered heart palpitations after a woman accused him of trying to grope her when she was 14, his fiancée claims.

Stinks of a cover up for decades, many more celebs and influential people involved.

And shame on Frank, should have punched him in the face.

That's Peter Sutcliffe there, What the **** is Frank thinking shaking that mans hand. :confused:

Anyway back to the serial pedo that was known as Jimmy Saville is anybody else thinking that 21 girls in 40 years is a bit of a shy number ?
I'd have thought if he was a serial nonce he would have got his hands on a lot more girls ?
Just a thought.

I dont get why Frank shook his hand :confused:

and what is Jimmy doing there?

I would suspect many victims are trying to just leaves things in the past, not to drag up such memories. Also many of the male victims, well i know i would, be too embarrassed to bring it up or report it possibly.

Also read a few days ago Jim denied ever going to Jersey's infamous Haut de la Garenne children's home and got an injuction against NOTW for this picture

The investigation there stunk like a cover up as well.

Don't get me wrong it sounds as dodgey to me as it does to everybody else which is why I am questioning it, I honestly feel that a guy in the position that Saville was in would have had many more girls than the 21 figure he was s'posed to, Makes me wonder what we are hearing & what we are not hearing.
I'm old & have seen a lot of this press persecution in the past & even if the person is guilty there is always an ulterior motive for bringing it to light.
