Did Savile turn out to rape everyone in the end? seriously how did it take so long for him to be found out?

Thumbs up Jimmy Savile: Leeds City Council to strip him of honour

http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.u...nour-1-5113607

Quote:
Councillors are next week expected to agree that Jimmy Savile be stripped of the Leeds Award he was given by the city council in 2008.

A meeting of the full council will also scrap plans for a statue or some other form of memorial to the late television star following allegations that he sexually abused young girls.

Savile was never made an Honorary Freeman of Leeds, the highest honour the council can bestow, but on July 2, 2008, councillors granted him the Leeds Award, given to people who have made an outstanding contribution to the city.

Savile was recognised for his charity work. His name has already been removed from a list of Leeds Award recipients on a wall in the Civic Hall.
Expunge his name .....

What happened to innocent until proven guilty?

He has not been found guilty in any trial and therefore must be considered an innocent man. I thought that was how our judicial system worked?

Yes I agree with you, however in this case the sheer weight of legally unproven allegations has changed the due process of law and as such Jimmy Savile is a sexual deviant, molester, abuser, rapist and Paedophile

Whilst there almost certainly is enough circumstantial evidence coupled with the witness testimonies to say realistically JS was some of the above, we will never know for sure the extent and depth of his crimes as they will always be unproven in a court of law.

However this story may lead onto more startling revelations connected with high level child Paedophile rings involving senior govt members and god knows who else...!!!

In the eyes of the law you are correct Sticks. It is 'innocent until proven guilty', but unfortunately when it comes to paedophelia and a media two-ring-circus where 'profit' comes before the consideration of anyone who actually may be innocent, it becomes 'guilty until proven innocent'. The public (most of which are a gullable thick bunch of people) will simply believe what is spewed out by the papers and on tv which then turns them into judge, jury and executioner of the person or persons they name, and without a trial or much evidence to back it up.

The evidence that the police are desperate to find which can link anyone else to what Jimmy Saville may have done will be simply people coming forward and saying 'this', 'that' and 'the other' about what aparently happened to them in the past. The second that happens the police will rush like mad to that person or persons house, probably mob-handed and it wont be long before the media find out, as theres more than likely someone in the force taking a back-hander as the newspaper that gets that juicy story the quickest will without doubt profit very much from it, so paying to get the information faster than anyone else will be in their best interest. It's a corrupt world you know The News of the World phone-hacking scandal for instance.

I was reading about Freddie Star's furious outburst towards these (couldn't give a ****) journalists who are more than happy to shove a camera and a microphone in his face and talk about allegations that he maybe a peadophile. Well his life is now ruined anyway (guilty or innocent) and I agree with his anger. I think anyone would with the way the whole corrupt system works.

Post Jimmy Savile: Former flatmate Ray Teret released on bail

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...l-8300376.html

Quote:
Jimmy Savile's former flatmate and chauffeur was released on bail today after he was arrested over historic abuse allegations.

Ray Teret was one of two men held on suspicion of rape yesterday by detectives from Greater Manchester Police (GMP) investigating three separate claims of sexual abuse.

The two men, aged 61 and 71, were arrested in Altrincham, Trafford.

Police emphasised that the accusations were not linked to the national inquiry into abuse by disgraced TV presenter Savile, with whom Teret worked and once shared a flat.

A GMP spokesman said: "A 71-year-old man and a 61-year-old man arrested on suspicion of rape yesterday have been bailed until November 29 pending further inquiries."

Lightbulb Jimmy Savile: Archive recordings handed to Met Police

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012...ngs-met-police

Quote:
Scotland Yard has been passed up to 45 archive recordings of a Jimmy Savile BBC radio show in which the late presenter can allegedly be heard behaving inappropriately with young girls.

Detectives from the Metropolitan Police's Operation Yewtree investigation into sexual abuse by Savile and others were last week sent nine archive reels, containing up to five audio clips each, from the 1970s BBC Radio 1 show Savile's Travels.

The clips were discovered by an archivist in Finland and could contain material that was never broadcast by the BBC.

The BBC has been unable to verify the authenticity of the recordings, three of which have been published online. At least one of the recordings was aired by Channel 4 News last month.

In one clip available online, a girl can be heard telling Savile to "get off me" and "get off my backside" after the late presenter tells her to describe him as "the only one" in her life.

Darren Ingram, the archivist who uncovered the recordings, said there were "absolutely no smoking guns" in the clips, and added: "But there is certainly a background of inappropriate, misguided behaviour in front of a live microphone.

"I am sure Savile knew the old broadcasting maxim about treating every microphone as a live one, so there should be no scope for anyone to suggest that these were illicit recordings."
Yeah, Savile, as ever, living dangerously in plain sight .....

Does anyone else think the kid looks a bit awkard with Jimmy, especially when Jimmy puts his hand on his back at 8:20?

Monster appears from 7:30

Former BBC producer Wilfred De’ath who was arrested today on suspicion of sexually assaulting a well-known British actress has insisted that he is a victim of ‘mistaken identity’

Well, at least you can continue to revel in it until some evidence appears... Of course if it turns out, Like Lord McAlpine, that this man is not guilty, you can blame the newspaper for getting in wrong and making you believe stuff.

When you say "not guilty", do you mean "innocent"?

Mr De’ath, a producer of Savile’s on the BBC radio shoe Teen Scene, has lived for the last ten years in a one bedroom second floor flat in a housing association block in Cambridge.

In his autobiography 'Uncommon Criminal' published in 2008, Mr De'ath described himsef as a 'sexual predator' who had 'targeted' the actresses Susanna York, Julie Christie, and Charlotte Rampling. He admitted to being a voyeur and claimed to have 'lifelong twin obsessions with sex and religion.'

He claimed he was recruited by MI5 to befriend a Russian spy at an orgy and maintained that he discovered Kenny Everett.

If you knew anything about the law you'd be a little more measured in what you post and more careful about the the unfounded allegations you throw around.

Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Everyone. It's something you should think about next time you post one of your thrilling little tit-bits.

I didn't query that - I queried the use of "not guilty" to describe a man who, AFAIK, has not even been formally charged with a crime yet, let alone brought up before a court of law to answer any such charge.

I do find it ironic that you persistently attack myself and my posts but jump to the defence of alleged sex-offenders .....

So much of the gossip you post is made up of unfounded allegations it's impossible to list them all without giving up some of my precious time to do it. And frankly, who could be arsed? Your opinions are sketchy at best. You seem much happier posting other people's unfounded allegations.

I am not jumping to the defence of alleged sex-offenders. I am jumping to the defence of people who have been accused of a heinous crime without a shred of evidence being presented, and people like you are metaphorically licking their screen with glee at the excitement of it all. And excuse my use of 'not guilty', it must be the four years I spent studying law that has affected my semantics. Furthermore, if was looking for a discussion about semantics with someone on my level, your name wouldn't spring to mind.
