And I am not talking about the victims here, I am talking about the people who were witnesses to these offences, and who did nothing.

Look if his bosses at the BBC let him have free reign, Joanna Bloggs from Nowhere was hardly going to get a hearing. That girl in the childrens home reported him and was put in solitary confinement until she remembered differently, who knows who else reported him What we have heard so far is just the tip of the iceberg, I have no doubt in weeks to come we will hear about the people who spoke up but who were ignored.
