What exactly was Jim Davidson accused of?
 

... in operation yewtree?

He's totally absolved by the courts, but what was it he was unjustly accused of?

I believe it was rape but the papers made out it was part of the Jimmy Saville business. Which in truth it had nothing to do with .

Sexual assault

No further investigation is not the same as totally absolved. Not at all.

They're seemed to be a culture or practice behind the scenes at the BBC of abusing teenage girls in the stars' dressing rooms, after a show.

True, but considering how seriously Operation Yewtree has been taken, I'd assume that insufficient evidence of any wrongdoing is the reason why there was no further investigation? Can't be nice to have that investigation attached to your name if you genuinely did nothing wrong, that sort of **** sticks.

He was not absolved by the courts,in as much as it did not get to court.
The DPP dropped the case due to the fact that they did not think they had enough evidence to get a guilty verdict.
Perhaps he would have been better off being charged and having his day in court and proving his innocence. Mud sticks after all.
As I recall, one of the allegations came under the operation Yewtree investigation as it was made by a young girl on the Jimmy Saville show and meant to have happened in his dressing room, Jim denied being there and then we were shown video on the news showing him sat behind the girl at the show.

So he was just implicated then? He's shaken it off. Unlike Jimmy Saville, Rolf Harris, those others. Freddie Starr, Ken Roache, The Le Velle chap, etc

Yes, I believe so.
The Le Velle chap was found innocent the rest are still under investigation so we don't know the outcome.

?
Is that William Barlow's brother?

Yep! And his grandpa too.

Not pursuing charges is ABSOLUTELY not the same thing as being absolved. Most rapists, child molesters, and others who commit acts of sexual violence are never punished. That's a massive tragedy.

The difference is that his guilt can only come from your imagination, which actually makes you the guilty one of having thoughts that are delusional. Thoughts not linked to facts in other words.

BB is notorious for having controversial guests. Jimmy Saville, Michael Barrymore, and now Jimbo. All charming in their own way and funny.

Does anyone suspect the Dutch de Mol chap behind Endemol might be a sexual deviant?

This thread wins the award for most depressing of all time.

Can I have it in gold.

It means there is nothing in law that can be taken to a court, the thing that anyone falsely accused of a crime hopes to hear all the time.

The law states Jim has nothing to answer to and is taking no action and in fact doing no more investigation as to him either.
Anyone who had false allegations made, who went through over a year of being intensely investigated and all things 'checked out' too.
When they were then told no charges will be brought,no caution of any kind put in place and no further investigation would be going on,that person would likely celebrate like crazy.

You cannot be deemed guilty of something if you are not on bail for anything,have not been charged with anything and even moreso been taken to court for it either.
That person is therefore 'not guilty' of anything as to the law.

Innocent until proven guilty. Hope that the outcome of the investigation was right but will never know for sure. In the interest of fairness, I will not assume his guilt in the absence of evidence and thus, I feel that slate is wiped clean.

That is the right thing to do, I totally agree with you.

No mud sticks to Jim at all as he was not charged with anything! People insinuating that they believe he is guilty because he was not found innocent in a court of law are glossing over the fact that there was no evidence to charge him with anything = NOT GUILTY. If they believed he was guilty they would have charged him & taken their chances in court (as many cases do go to court when there is no evidence but just one persons word against another)...
