It is of course possible that we will hear about such cases where people had tried to alert the authorities and their reports were not taken seriously or covered up, but I am airing my views about what we know so far and the facts in hand, and that is all I can comment upon.
Again I realise that people thought their complaints may not be taken seriously, and so did nothing, but this is now on such a big scale it seems incomprehensible that nothing was done with regards to protecting these minors from such predators.

The Catholic church is way bigger than Jimmy Savile or the BBC and paedophile priests have been ALLOWED to damage children without question for centuries.
Children are vulnerable. Predators "love" the vulnerable. Rarely are their interests perk around capable adults.
We need to get so much better at recognising predators while protecting and listening to children.
The culture of shaming abused people into silence through poor investigation rebuff devalue dismissal disbelief and incredulity just adds to the damage.
I also believe JS was reported many times since the 70s onwards. I am not a conspiracy theorist believer. However I do think that this case will die with JS being recognised as the demon he was. But if the case were truly and properly investigated it would rock the very foundations of British society.
