Operation Yewtree
The Sun are reporting that SIR Jimmy Savile is to be branded a manipulative paedophile by FIVE women who claimed he abused them as kids.
The legendary DJ and TV host - who died last October aged 84 - will be accused on an ITV documentary of molesting girls as young as 14. Some of the women were pupils of Duncroft Approved School for Girls in Staines, Surrey, which Savile frequently visited in the 1970s. Two of them claim he asked for sexual favours in return for treats and trips in his car. Sources close to the programme - to be shown next Wednesday - said it features "shocking material that really lifts the lid on the icon". Exposure - The Other Side Of Jimmy Savile is fronted by former Surrey police officer and child protection expert Mark Williams-Thomas. It took a year to make. But Sir Jimmy's shocked niece Amanda McKenna, of Leeds, said: "The documentary makers should be ashamed for cashing in on a man who is dead and can't defend himself." The BBC planned to broadcast similar claims on Newsnight shortly after his death. But bosses shelved it and ran two tribute programmes celebrating his career instead. |

Acuse him of something when he's not around to defend himself. Yeah, that'll teach him

Interesting.
Was he or wasn't he. that is the question. |
re: Operation Yewtree
it looks pretty damning specially as BBC staff at the time are going on camera saying it was suspected.
|
re: Operation Yewtree
From what I've read. he was investigated for it.
it's intersting because if it is true then there must have been another celebrity who was aware of it going on. and of course persons at the BBC. |
re: Operation Yewtree
And accusing somebody whilst they are still alive, and are unable to disprove allegations is any better? Should we summarily dismiss all "he said, she said" types of allegations on that basis?
The papers are merely reporting what will be in a TV programme, so criticising them for it, is complete prejudiced and blinkered nonsense(no surprise there:rolleyes:). Some of the the initial allegations were made at the time and ignored or covered up. Quote:

re: Operation Yewtree
Should have been sorted when he was alive & able to defend himself. He`s dead, let it go.
