One double-barreled surname doesn't really count as two.

I know you and I don't always agree Nedusa, but I'm right behind you on this one.

Especially when it's Partridge-Partridge.

Thanks Livia, the more I read about these stories and others related to the JS story the more cynical I become. Its almost as if the Press are on a non stop bandwagon for more and more lurid stories involving ageing male Celebrities living or dead (but preferrably living).

No you may not say so, I did not attempt to humiliate you with unnecessary mocking comments.
I asked you a hypothetical question yes, if you did not wish to respond that is your choice.
My view is that however historic the abuse a victim has the right to justice.
As you say we shall see what the outcome is based on the evidence they have.

I would like to see a few of those accused, once acquitted, to pursue private prosecutions against those who waited three decades to air their grievances.

Former radio and television presenter Stuart Hall charged with one offence of rape and 14 offences of indecent assault http://itv.co/Vit9r5

Presumably, these charges are additional to:

We shall now have to wait for the court proceedings to obtain the details ..... :pipe:

took 37 years to get him in court??????? hope they got good evidence cos theyll need it. to be honest ....you could arrest EVERY band member from every 70s band if ya wanted to dig that deep...................no chance of conviction unless he admits the lot.

Stuart Hall Admits Sex Assaults On Children

Guilty: Stuart Hall arrives at Preston Crown Court today,
with solicitor Maurice Watkins,
where he has admitted historic sex allegations

"Whether in public or private, Hall would first approach under friendly pretences and then bide his time until the victim was isolated. He can only be described as an opportunistic predator."

:eek:

he's gonna go to jail for this.

:eek:

Yes
if he does not Top himself first

Maybe they could open a new Prison wing for Celebrity Paedophiles, at the current rate of disclosure it would fill up in no time......!!!!!

The way the pleas are structured it seems like there may be quite a lot of evidence against him. They might send him down for quite a lengthy time.

I guess that she's hoping that he'll die in chokey ....

If I read the above quote correctly, it is saying that this lady will not give evidence in Court relating to her "rape" by Hall and in light of his guilty plea to molestation charges she is happy for the rape charge to be dropped.

But the inference is that he is guilty of child rape but because he's old and has pleaded guilty to lesser charges there is no need to prove rape.

Hmmnn ??? so basically everyone will now believe he is a child rapist and he will be despised and hated in equal measure.

But legally he is being convicted of indecent behaviour ie putting his hand up a young girls skirt. Still disgusting and reprehensible but its NOT child rape there is an enormous difference between the two.......

I guess the end result will not look that different in any case ie convicted sex offender name on sex offenders register, good name gone , reputation gone, despised by all , avoided by all family & friends, Showbiz career disappeared even faster.....what a sick stupid man....!!!!

Yes with his Bad Heart he may Die Soon
that saves us money

What a mess, what on earth too was the BBC hierarchy doing with all these things supposedly going on,in fact were going on.

This guy has made himself look pathetic and for those still waiting to be charged or who have been, people will be now thinking, well Stuart Hall eventually pleaded guilty so clearly was.

Sick,just totally sick.

All I can say is dirty old bastard:nono:

Yes Rape of a 9 year old girl

makes him Evil
