Whatever way you look at it, it's not black humour, it's not sick humour - it's disgraceful. Harvey is not in the position to reply or defend himself but that doesn't mean he should be made the butt of jokes..

Let's put it this way: how many comedians would makes jokes about the victim of a paedophile? None in their right minds. It's in the same bracket as far as I'm concerned.

Agree.

I've lost respect for a couple of people in this thread.

The 'it was clearly a joke' doesn't wash when it comes to this type of stuff. That's just an excuse for someone to be vile and disgusting.
