    Don't see what they hope to achieve

    Why now ?


    I don't know if he did or didn't. The vidence is looking more damning.

    But
    1. He can't defend himself now
    2. He won't pay for it if proven

    Seems to me... all it serves to do now... is to destroy any charitable legacy... and to hurt family...

    Does it not serve as a form of justice for the victims? No one believed them when he was alive, if he did do it then ANY legacy he left is for naught anyway, IMO.

    i think in most cases they didnt make any accusation when he was alive so not sure its a case of no one believing them... its odd that they come forward now?

    From what Esther Rantzen has said today, they tried to say something but because of who he was, nobody listened. She said herself that she'd heard things back in the day but dismissed them and now feels responsible. This particular 'investigation' was started while he was alive.

    I don't know if he did it but either way, 5 people telling very similar stories of their abuse should be enough to warrant questions being asked. It's not nice for his family whatever the outcome but if he were a family member of mine, i'd want to know.

    Jimmy Saville's work history:

    Early career: got sweaty and dirty with miners.

    Later career: got sweaty and dirty with minors.

    I don't think it will come to much given it was consensual...

    "They didn't say anything sooner out of fear of his fame and power..."
    F*ck me, We're talking about f*cking Jimmy Saville here, not Tony Montana.

    You're forgetting how famous the guy actually was.

    More famous than Michael Jackson ?

    People didn't have a problem accusing him.

    Quite right.

    Esther has come out & more or less confirmed it. He was a Paedo. Why are we all so surprised?

    There's a guy being extradited from the UK to here who starred in one of the most popular family sitcoms here in the late 80's/90's. Now allegedly he sexually assaulted young members of the cast (and others).

    But Jimmy received a knighthood. I think that, in itself, demands an inquiry.

Howdy, Stranger!
