Lightbulb The report raises as many questions as it answers.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-22476937

Quote:

Danny Shaw

Home affairs correspondent, BBC News

How can it be that West Yorkshire police have no record of any allegations against Jimmy Savile while he was alive but have since received dozens of complaints of historical abuse?

Why was the 1998 "anonymous letter" claiming the presenter was a paedophile not entered on the force's database and acted upon? And how deeply did Savile's friendships with police officers really go?

Then there are the mysterious links to the Yorkshire Ripper inquiry: the presenter's details were on four "index cards". Perhaps a detective suspected he might be involved.

There's no evidence for this - but it adds to an uneasy sense that the review hasn't established the full story of Jimmy Savile's relationships with the force.

Lightbulb Jimmy Savile abused four children aged five

Quote:
Jimmy Savile sexually assaulted four children when they were aged just five — three more than police had previously claimed, it can be revealed.

He abused the children between 1962 and 1976 in West Yorkshire, where he had a home in Leeds.

The disclosure takes his offending to a new level, it has now been claimed, but it also raises questions over the conduct of West Yorkshire Police.

The force only admitted Savile had four five-year-old victims after repeated questions from this newspaper.

In a 59-page report on its dealings with the serial paedophile published last week it suggested there was one victim of that age.

A spokesman for the force said the report might have been “slightly misleading”, while one MP said it appeared the force’s account of events was “unravelling”.

I smell corruption at a very high level, there was something very rotten about how 'in' saville was with the establishment as well as the government.
I don't think we will ever know the truth, all we get is this smokescreen of 'indecent assault' stories.

Arrow Jimmy Savile: Police investigator now faces inquiry herself

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...s-inquiry.html

Quote:
Nick Gargan, the chief constable of Avon and Somerset, is examining Assistant Chief Constable Ingrid Lee’s business relationship with serving and retired officers of West Yorkshire Police.

Mrs Lee commissioned and oversaw the force’s internal inquiry into its dealings with Savile, whose main home was in Leeds and who had a close association with the local police.

She was placed under investigation yesterday after The Sunday Telegraph found she was a director of a property firm alongside four current or former officers from the force.

Mr Gargan will lead an investigation into whether Mrs Lee, 47, followed guidelines which say business dealings by serving officers must be fully declared and cannot present any appearance of allowing an officer to be unduly influenced.

Mrs Lee, who lives in Leeds, has not been suspended and there is no suggestion of wrongdoing.

She is one of 14 directors of Oree Activite. Four others are former or serving police officers. She was previously a director of a second company which had three other officers as directors.

The Sunday Telegraph asked whether any of the officers Mrs Lee is in business with were members of the Friday Morning Club or had dealings with Savile. We also asked whether Mrs Lee declared her business interest to superiors or to the team carrying out the investigation.

The force declined to comment on the questions. It also said Mrs Lee had no statement to make and that she had not been suspended, saying that would be a matter for Mr Gargan to decide.

Arrow Jimmy Savile: Cottage Goes Under The Hammer

http://news.sky.com/story/1097199/ji...der-the-hammer

Quote:
The Highland cottage owned by disgraced TV presenter Jimmy Savile will be sold at auction later.

The remote three-bedroom property in Glencoe has been put on the market by trustees of the late DJ's estate for £100,000.

It is being sold at an evening auction hosted by Ross Harper Property Auctions in Glasgow.

The firm describes it as "a traditional refurbished detached cottage an attractive location within scenic Highland countryside" and highlights its proximity to Glencoe Ski Centre.

"The grounds also boast a large outbuilding with one bedroom chalet, log store and there are garden grounds with waterfalls and a large parking area to front," the property website says.

Exclamation Jimmy Savile: West Yorkshire Police reveal abuse figures

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-22716302

Quote:
Jimmy Savile's offending took place in locations including hospitals, public toilets, a cemetery and nightclubs, allegations collated by police show.

Across West Yorkshire, 79 offences have been recorded against 71 people, the figures have revealed.

Thirty-five attacks by the broadcaster in hospitals involved complainants ranging in age from five to 45.

The West Yorkshire Police figures show Savile targeted 18 victims at private addresses in Leeds and Bradford.

According to the West Yorkshire Police figures, in the 1960s Savile struck 25 times in the region, with eight attacks at the LGI and two at St James's Hospital. A further nine offences are reported to have happened in nightclubs.

In the following decade the presenter continued to prey on people at the LGI, according to complaints made to police, with 11 alleged offences committed there.

No attacks were reported at St James' Hospital in the 1970s, although 11 offences were committed on what police described as private property during that decade and eight in other public places.

Attacks in other hospitals in West Yorkshire have also been reported to police, with one at Dewsbury Hospital in the 1960s, and two separate attacks in High Royds Hospital at Menston, near Ilkley, which treated psychiatric patients, in the 1970s and 1980s.

The police figures show a total of 25 offences were committed against 24 victims in what the force described as public locations.

Ten of these were in nightclubs, with other attacks detailed in a cemetery, a public toilet, a railway station, a park, a street and two in hotels.

Savile's alleged attacks on private property include 19 offences against 18 victims, with the youngest aged five and the oldest an 18 year old.

Seventeen of those offences were said to have happened in Leeds, one in Bradford and one at an undisclosed location.
It still beggars belief that that Savile did as he pleased and got away with so many offense .....

Arrow Ex-DJ Chris Denning arrested by Operation Yewtree police

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22795892

Quote:
A man arrested by police over sex offences is former BBC Radio 1 DJ Chris Denning, the BBC understands.

The 72-year-old was questioned on Monday as part of the Operation Yewtree police inquiry set up after the Jimmy Savile scandal.

Mr Denning faces allegations unrelated to Savile.

He is the 13th person to have been held as part of Scotland Yard's investigation. He has been bailed until July.

The former DJ was one of the original Radio 1 team when the station was launched in 1967, having been the first announcer heard on BBC2 when the channel took to the air in 1964.

He also worked as a music producer for the Beatles, helped launch the careers of the Bay City Rollers and Gary Glitter and ran his own music and video production business.
"Bay City Rollers" - there's a criminal offence to add to the charges .....

..... and a Gary Glitter connection, to, eh .....

Arrow More NHS staff thought to have turned blind eye to sex attacks

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...#ixzz2XGnR1iny

Quote:
NHS bosses should brace themselves for a new storm of criticism when 'damning' evidence about Jimmy Savile's hospital sex attacks is revealed, lawyers said today.

Liz Dux, of Slater & Gordon, added that more people in the NHS than previously thought knew about what was happening and took no action.

She said one victim had been assaulted while lying on a hospital trolley going to have an x-ray, and another was passing in a wheelchair when she was attacked.

Dux told The Sunday Times: 'The evidence against the NHS is as bad [as the BBC] if not worse. I think the degree of knowledge was greater - clearly there was knowledge at the BBC but it was less concentrated. Here we have people seeing him [commit offences] and having direct knowledge.

'The NHS abuses are horrific. There were quite a few rapes on NHS premises. The evidence from the two main hospitals is absolutely damning.'

There are three separate inquiries under way into Savile's crimes, focusing on Stoke Mandeville, Leeds General and Broadmoor hospitals.

It is not just the nature of the offences that has shocked lawyers but also the response - or lack of it - by the staff. One of the victims Dux is representing was a young girl at the time of Savile's attack.

'She was raped and then told a nurse about the attack. The nurse said: "I mustn't say anything or I'll get into trouble",' Dux said.

'There are stories of Savile being on top of people in the wards and nurses just saying "Oh, get out Jimmy, you shouldn't be in here".'

In an incident at Leeds General, where Savile worked as a volunteer porter, one victim was attacked in the porter's office. When the attack was over, the door was opened from outside by someone other than Savile, as if that person knew what had been happening.

Dux said her clients at Leeds appeared to believe that there were other people assisting him and complicit in his crimes.

In another incident at Leeds Dux said a girl was ignored when she complained to staff that a porter had hurt her and pointed to her groin.

The Stoke Mandeville inquiry is due to finish taking evidence soon, while the inquiry at Leeds is progressing.

Dr Bill Kirkup, the lead investigator into Savile's offending at Broadmoor, has now launched an appeal for more witnesses to come forward.

In all, Savile is believed to have committed offences at 14 health institutions - 13 hospitals and a hospice.
The extent of others' complicity, and therefore guilt, will, inevitably, never be fully established but I hope that at least some of them are named and shamed.

I really struggle to understand how he was by their own admission allowed to get away with this for decades, seemingly abusing thousands and not one single person came forward in all that time. Seems to me like they are laying a lot of **** on a dead man who is obviously unable to defend himself, to give the impression that they are doing something positive.

Ted Heath used to be prime minister of the country. People are only looking at the entrance of the rabbit hole from a safe distance and are too scared to go inside.

Seems like Jimmy Savile was the Devil incarnate ... The most evil depraved sex monster ever to live on our planet in the history of the world.

Oh and he died an innocent man ... Never convicted of any crime

And he still has his OBE...
