Savile was first invited into Leeds General Infirmary in 1961 when he was asked by its chief porter, Charles Hullighan, to help its new hospital radio station, and promptly volunteered as a porter.

Savile had already been questioned by police over allegations of having sex with under-age girls at dance halls he ran across the north, and had become a pirate radio disc jockey. Before he died in 1995, Mr Hullighan said: "James came to the infirmary as a volunteer porter for a few days in 1961 and he stayed for a long time."

Mr Hullighan became an extremely close friend of the DJ, to the extent that in 1972 he was made company secretary of the firm that dealt with Savile's earnings, despite having no business background.

It is not known whether he told hospital authorities of the business relationship, but Savile paid him a salary and contributions towards a pension, and Mr Hullighan was able to have homes in Leeds and Scarborough.

Exactly what Mr Hullighan earned is not disclosed, but in 1981, when Savile was at the height of his fame, he shared in directors' pay of £91,500, the equivalent of about £310,000 today.

It can also be disclosed that the disgraced star's unrestricted role at Broadmoor secure hospital, where allegedly he sexually abused vulnerable patients, was approved by ministers at the time.

A Whitehall report signed off by Lord Owen revealed his appointment as honorary entertainments officer.

The confidential hospital advisory service report was sent to ministers in February 1974 and has a section on the BBC star that says: "We were pleased to meet Jimmy Savile for a discussion of his work as Honorary Assistant Entertainments Officer."

Savile used the title and was given an office in the grounds of the hospital, a bedroom, which he called his "cell", and his own set of keys to the wards.

The report also went to Barbara Castle, then health secretary.

According to the surviving papers, neither Lord Owen nor officials raised any questions or passed any comment about Savile's role.

This whole thing is weird. Why would Bruno shake the hand of a mass murderer anyway? I think Frank was involved aswell. And this shake marked their mutual respect.

[Kizzy]

Permanantly punch drunk Bruno? nahhh.
The links between Savile and Sutclliffe however... Both knew east leeds well, spent time in the locarno and mecca ballrooms?
They may well have met years before Broadmoor.

Serial paedophile Jimmy Savile might have abused as many as 900 victims.

It is feared the most recent figure of 300 could treble as more people come forward.

Scotland Yard is investigating complaints from 1958 to 2006.

The true scale of Savile’s abuse at BBC premises, hospitals and schools is likely to take several months to uncover.

Status Quo legend Francis Rossi was just a fresh-faced lad when he first appeared on Top of the Pops.

He still recalls the band’s big TV break in January 1968 but not all his memories are good ones.

As frontman Francis waited to play the psychedelic hit Pictures Of Matchstick Men, at seven in the charts, he was approached by the TV show’s leering host.

“Come and see me tarts,” the twisted pervert said to teenager Francis.

It was the rocker’s introduction to the real Jimmy Savile, the predatory paedophile and prime-time superstar.

Francis says: “The first time ever at Top of the Pops something went on.

“Our dressing room was away from his. But he said: ‘Come here later on because there’s going to be something. Come and see me tarts, some *********g tarts we have got in.’

“I was 18 but I just said ‘get out of it’. I wasn’t long married at the time. It didn’t enter my mind at all.”

The band appeared on Savile’s shows many times as their career rocketed but always kept their distance from the DJ.

Francis, who thinks there’s even more scandal to emerge about Savile’s vile inner circle, says: “I remember hearing stuff but I never saw anything. But everybody found him very odd.

“Parents would drop their daughters at Top of the Pops – it was a completely different world back then.

“I keep hearing ‘how did he cover it up for so long?’ I heard he paid a lot of people off. But where did he get the money? I think there is a lot to come out about it.

“Even Roy Wood texted me the other day and said ‘about time they got that b******.’ Yep. Everybody heard stuff about him but never saw anything.

“I remember people saying watch out for the Leeds Mafia. If you had said anything you’d have been mullered.”

It's a mystery .....

A WOMAN who was eight when Jimmy Savile abused her has emerged as his youngest victim so far.

She says he molested her in Stoke Mandeville Hospital as she recovered from surgery.

The Stoke Mandeville victim is suing Savile’s multi-million pound estate and the hospital for damages over the alleged 1986 attack.

Solicitor Liz Dux said: “This was a little girl who went in for treatment and came out an abuse victim. She should have been protected.”

Liz’s firm Slater & Gordon is representing 36 abuse victims — including a man and woman who were nine when DJ Savile attacked them on BBC premises in the 1980s.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...lked.-Why.html

One of the most striking aspects of the late Jimmy Savile’s lengthy career as a child abuser was how singularly little effort he made to conceal his predilections: the DJ and television presenter was, as his former colleague Paul Gambaccini put it, hiding “in plain sight”.

But while Savile was perhaps more brazen than other child abusers, the terrible inactivity of the “responsible” adults around him is a common feature of such cases. Paedophiles – particularly high status ones – are often expert manipulators who use their plausibility, dominant personality or social status to beguile or intimidate potential accusers. We often examine why children fear speaking out about abuse, but a less examined question is why the adults who should protect them so often stay silent too. As one former victim described it: “Adults look, but then they turn their faces away”. And they do so in the moral shadows.

For decades Savile bragged openly about behaviour with young girls which ranged from the inappropriate to the criminal, while simultaneously denying that he was a paedophile. The fact that no one in authority stopped him can be attributed to many factors, but they can’t say they weren’t warned. Savile felt confident enough to hint at his sexual activities himself without apparent concern.

When a well-known paedophile is exposed, it is commonplace for the cry to go up of “how could we not have known what was going on?” The more painful truth in the Savile case is that – while other adult abusers may have taken advantage of the opportunities Savile engineered – there were many other ordinary grown-ups who knew or suspected what went on, felt uneasy, but did nothing. This is no isolated phenomenon: it has been seen frequently in prominent child abuse cases, from those of paedophile priests in Ireland to the recent Rochdale scandal, in which a group of British Pakistani men systematically groomed and abused up to 50 under-age girls. Repeatedly, predatory adults used highly determined strategies to gain access to children, and “responsible” adults noticed something wrong, but wilfully ignored it in order to avoid the personal risk or embarrassment of confronting the abuser.

Colm O’Gorman, the executive director of Amnesty International in Ireland, has a precise understanding of the long-lasting damage caused not just by abuse, but by the inaction of adults. He was 14 and growing up in Fethard-on-Sea, Co Wexford, when Father Sean Fortune, a domineering parish priest, first targeted him in 1981.

Shortly after meeting O’Gorman, Fortune asked his parents if the boy could stay for the weekend in his house, and such was the trust in the priesthood that O’Gorman’s parents agreed. The abuse began that night. The priest used a toxic combination of threats, physical force and shame to intensify the nature and frequency of the sexual activity, which continued for two and a half years.

“He was a controlling, powerful individual,” says O’Gorman of Fortune, “a bully and egomaniac.” He recalls that, like Savile, with his theatrical persona, Fortune was noticeably grandiose: “He wore little dark sunglasses and flowing robes. He was described by others as incredibly charismatic.” Fortune made a point of setting up activities that brought him into frequent contact with young people, just as Savile did with his relentless round of clubs, discos, shows and charity events. The range, audacity and violence of Fortune’s abuse, detailed in the subsequent Ferns Inquiry, makes grim reading. Yet even before Fortune was ordained, the Catholic authorities knew he was a problem: he had molested young boys while leading a Catholic scout group and had been banned from such a role again.

His ordination went ahead, however, and the Church did little to arrest Fortune’s rampant exploitation of children despite subsequent complaints about him to senior clerics. The Church protected its reputation, and the community did not challenge the Church.

O’Gorman was the first of Fortune’s victims to report the abuse to the Irish police in 1995, whereupon many others came forward with similar appalling stories. Fortune committed suicide in 1999 while awaiting trial on 66 charges of sexual, indecent assault and buggery of young boys. Yet even as an adult, some things still had the power to surprise and wound O’Gorman afresh. When he returned to the village to make a film in 2002, he spoke to an older woman who had been there throughout Fortune’s time: “I was terribly naive. I said to her: ‘Did people know?’ and she said: ‘Yes, everybody knew all right. They used to say: “Don’t bend down in the churchyard in front of that fella.” ’ I felt as if I had been kicked in the gut. They had watched Fortune parading me around as a teenager, and they had known. And those who did know had kept their own children well away from him.”

A seaside flat where Jimmy Savile entertained police cronies has not been searched by cops even though it is just about to be sold.

Fears are growing that vital clues to the pervert DJ's secret life could be lost if his flat on the fashionable Esplanade in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, is not examined soon.

It is now being sold to a buyer who reportedly offered £200,000 - £25,000 over the asking price.

Neighbours say that Savile's "Friday Morning Club" of mainly police officer pals who met at his Leeds home sometimes visited Scarborough too.

Yorkshire police, eh .....

More than 40 damages claims by alleged victims of Jimmy Savile are to be launched against the BBC, three other public bodies and his estate.

Russell Jones & Walker has sent the BBC, Leeds General Infirmary, Stoke Mandeville and Broadmoor hospitals and NatWest "letters before action".

The bank, executor to the BBC DJ's £4m estate, has frozen his account.

Meanwhile, Savile's name is to be removed from the list of honorary freemen of the borough of Scarborough.

Russell Jones & Walker is acting for 36 people aged from eight to 23 when they were allegedly abused.

Liz Dux, a partner at the firm and an expert in personal injury and child abuse cases, said cases were "still coming in by the day".

It is understood that the BBC is now investigating some 20 members of staff for alleged sexual misconduct.

George Entwistle, the BBC’s new director-general, told MPs last month that between eight and 10 former and current BBC staff and contributors had been named as alleged perpetrators of sexual abuse.

A BBC spokesman said: “All new allegations are passed to the BBC Investigations Unit or to the police as appropriate. Numbers will fluctuate both up and down as new allegations are made and investigated.

“Once they have been investigated – either resulting in further action or the matter being cleared and resolved – the cases will be closed.”

How can cases "resulting in further action" be closed ?

YORKSHIRE Ripper Peter Sutcliffe insists his old mate Jimmy Savile is innocent — and the paedophile DJ’s hundreds of victims are “jumping on the bandwagon”.

Sutcliffe, befriended by Savile during his Broadmoor visits, said on a tape leaked to The Sun: “It’s a load of rubbish. People are just getting carried away.”

Serial killer Sutcliffe claims Savile is being victimised — by the hundreds of tormented individuals who are revealing how the vile DJ abused them.

Sutcliffe even claimed he could personally vouch for his mate.

Speaking on the tape, he said: “I can’t fault him from my experiences of what he was like. I don’t care what these people who are coming out of the woodwork are saying.

“He visited a lot. He’d always come and chat with me on visits and I would introduce him to my visitors. Several times he left £500 for charities I was supporting. He wrote cheques out on the spot, a very generous man he was.”

Savile is accused of having abused more than 300 youngsters - including molesting a teenage female Broadmoor patient. But Sutcliffe, who murdered and mutilated 13 women, poured scorn on the claims of those Savile attacked.

He said: “Coming forward after 40 or 50 years or whatever, they are jumping on the bandwagon.

“It only takes a couple of rumours and then it goes like wildfire. I don’t believe he raped anyone. I think he kissed quite a few young women but that’s as far as he’s gone.

“It’s just going crazy, they love to savage people who are dead, people who can’t hit back — or prisoners who can’t reply.”

Sutcliffe also dismissed claims that Savile, who died last year aged 84, molested a 1970s Broadmoor patient during his many visits to the secure hospital.

On the tape he tells a pal, who has asked to remain anonymous: “Oh that’s a load of rubbish. It’s a load of crap.

“People were always there. He was never alone with anybody, there were always people about. He never did anything at Broadmoor.

“They are just getting carried away — going right over the top.”

The tape provides further disturbing evidence of the close links between Savile and Sutcliffe.

Serial killer expert David Wilson has already called for an inquiry into whether the pair knew each other before Sutcliffe was caught.

It came after The Sun revealed Sutcliffe killed third victim Irene Richardson yards from Savile’s flat in Roundhay, Leeds, in 1977.

A glowing testimonial from the Yorkshire Ripper .....

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

hmm inneresting.

[Sticks]

But maybe he has a point, how many of these making claims are just hoping to cash in?

Mr Saville is not around to defend himself

[Nedusa]

Technically Jimmy Savile is innocent of any of these alleged crimes as our system of law works under the premise innocent until proven guilty.

We are never going to be able to bring any prosecutions as Mr Savile is no longer alive and as such he will never be convicted of any offence.

So regardless of the fact that over 900 alleged victims think he is guilty, most of his friends and family, vast swathes of the Public here and abroad, the unpalatable fact is in the eyes of the law he is innocent. Because of this I think his estate beneficiaries will be successful in fighting off any litigation resulting from these sexual abuse allegations.

This story will eventually die when another major scandal attracts the media's attention.

The possibility of offshore funds belonging to Savile's estate is being investigated.

I don't think Savile and The Ripper will have been linked in any murders before meeting at Broadmoor. Those types of serial killers rarely have an accomplice.

A former detective who helped catch the Yorkshire Ripper has revealed Jimmy Savile was quizzed over the serial murderer's crimes.

Former West Yorkshire detective John Stainthorpe told ITV Calendar News that Savile was brought in for questioning after members of the public contacted the police naming the eccentric DJ as a possible killer.

Mr Stainthorpe, who worked for the West Yorkshire force for more than 40 years, and who spent years trying to catch Peter Sutcliffe, told Calendar: 'When the Ripper was really active one of the suspects put forward by members of the public was Jimmy Savile, strange as it may seem.

'Obviously it was not him, but he was interviewed along with many others, as you can appreciate.'

A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said: 'Hundreds of people were identified in the operation, we cannot be more specific than that at this time.

'Details of all who were questioned in connection with the crimes are in storage, so we cannot confirm that Jimmy Savile was spoken to.'

Mr Stainthorpe said the person who gave police the anonymous tip-off was 'aiming in the right direction'.

'Child perverts soon become child killers,' he added.

Yes Omah, you have clearly been doing your homework, I think the Nat West Bank is the main beneficiary and as such they will fight tooth and nail to receive this money. Since they will receive a fairly large payment when they distribute to the various charities under their control.
