A couple of visits to Haut de la Garrenne and to Duncroft Approved School could have also provided a number of attacks. Jimmy Saville was a regular visitor to these places of protection and his attendance is corrobarated.
Hundreds of visits to children's wards over decades and decades could as well provided the same "opportunities" Jimmy Saville made thousands of these visits. Years and years of inviting young girls to his dressing rooms which is again corroborated could have provided him with further chances to molest
Paedophiles get away with it precisely because of the disbelief that they could have been so prolific 1000 victims over 40 years would mean attacking 2 children a month.

No no no I simply don't buy it ... Some of his alleged victims may have put up with his advances because of who he was but not all and considering the sheer numbers involved some of them would certainly have complained and once a few complaints had been received, the Police would have been duty bound to investigate regardless of his celebrity.

As I said earlier this story is starting to stretch credulity to its limits....!!!

Some of them did complain - the trouble is, back in those days, the police were (mostly) a rule unto themselves and corrupt into the bargain - "duty bound" was a phrase long passed into oblivion along with "Dixon of Dock Green" and "fair cop, guv" ..... freemasonry and funny handshakes were the order of the day - "fit-ups" were standard procedure to reduce crime-rates .....
