Perhaps, but Cyril Smith was protected by the national secrets act by thatcher (though more people were involved than her, I’ll admit) I imagine not giving the knighthood ( thus having to justify it) would have meant imprisonment or being shot.
At least the scum bag paedo officer killed himself I suppose.
I doubt there was ever going to be justice though sadly.That’s no justice, certainly not for the dozens, hundreds, thousands of kids who’ve been destroyed by these powerful people.
I imagine most of them are homeless or dead by their own suicide from the torment.
This thread has to be one of the worst aged threads in OCUK history. Absolutely sickening individual and the comments on page one just show how he got away with it. People knew what he was and turned a blind eye.
The posts on the first few pages are from before the public knew he was a wrongun.
The average person did not know he was a wrongun until the stories started coming out in the media.

Really? People knew he was a 'wrongun', as you say, way back when. Hell, Johnny Rotten was banned from the BBC for calling Savile out on his noncery back in 1978.The posts on the first few pages are from before the public knew he was a wrongun.
Not all, some posts from people that had met him/knew of him and pointed out exactly what he was like. Why were they not reported.

I wonder if he was a pedophile

I've just watched the Netflix documentary and it is truly shocking he was never caught. He alluded to it publicly so, so many times. And why has King Charles and co never been held to account for at best helping him get away with it?
Private Eye has called him a paedo for years. He never trieed to sue them though.
...Very apt a necro'ed thread is about Savile.
