View From The Top Posted 17 March, 2015 Share Posted 17 March, 2015 Anyone else hear that Bury reporter on 5 live this morning. Threatened by Cyril Smith in his office, the next day Special Branch turned up and took all his evidence. He felt like they would put him in hospital. Like something out of red riding. & then the 2nd file was stolen during a break in at The Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloridaMarlin Posted 17 April, 2015 Share Posted 17 April, 2015 You can't put somebody with dementia on trial. No right-minded person would consider a trial under such circumstances to be fair. The questions need to be asked of Leicestershire Police and the CPS who didn't prosecute him years ago. Some uniformed talking head from Leicestershire Feds was on the box last night, saying how disappointed he was at the CPS decision not to prosecute Lord Janner, completely overlooking the fact that they couldn't put together a case years ago when he was of sound mind.

Viking Warrior Posted 20 April, 2015 Share Posted 20 April, 2015 Interesting take on the defence lawyers using dementia as an excuse. Defence lawyers must have difficult time sleeping at night . We have had an individual up here , who has just got off with having obscene photos and videos of children ion his PC as the defence lawyer put forward a defence that others had used this paedo's pc or down loaded the extreme images Therefore the prosecution could not prove conclusively he had down loaded the under age videos etc . Case was not proven and dismissed still the 28 year old has admitted to having sex with under age kids and will be sentenced in due course the law is an ass at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katalinic Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 Some chap on Sky was defending Heath saying outside politics he had no interests in private life except music and sailing. Some bloke was on local TV yesterday saying that he never suspected anything and that he and his wife regularly had dinner with Heath - so that clears that up, Heath couldn't have been a paedo as he never told his neighbours over canapes that he was interested in young boys.

ecuk268 Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 The point was also made that, as an ex-prime Minister, he would have had police protection so it would have been a bit difficult to get up to anything that was dodgy. But before he became PM, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View From The Top Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 Heath's preference for young boys has been gossiped about for years. He didn't go to Jersey just for the sailing. Reading the recently disclosed cabinet notes it seems clear that the Establishment were much more concerned about prominent figures being compromised than they were about the kids.

Probably, but "he wasn't interested in relationships, just sailing and music" raises a big red flag for me. I had a mate who got done for similar stuff and to say it was a bombshell to me, his family and friends is an understatement. Heath's friends opinions are about as relevant as yours or mine.

trousers Posted 6 October, 2015 Share Posted 6 October, 2015 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-34455579 A vulnerable man who made sex abuse allegations against VIPs has told the BBC he may have been led into making the claims by campaigners. The man told Panorama he had provided VIP names including that of ex-Home Secretary Leon Brittan, "as a joke suggestion to start with", which had later been repeated in earnest.

Verbal Posted 7 October, 2015 Share Posted 7 October, 2015 Thank you for posting this, trousers. I suggest the pitch-fork wielders and reptilian (!) conspiracy theorists go back over the thread to check how ludicrous they've been. The hounding of Brittan in particular has been disgusting, egged on by a troll who's now deputy leader of what used to be the Labour party.

buctootim Posted 7 October, 2015 Share Posted 7 October, 2015 Paul Gambaccini has a book out about his time under suspicion of sex offences. I haven't read it but did hear a very emotional and angry interview on the radio last week. He says the police never even questioned him about the allegations, they simply kept on very publicly extending his bail always tied to dates when they had bad news to hide about the Savile investigation. He says he was simply used as a diversion tactic to draw attention away from the Savile failings. No idea if this is true or not obviously.

Viking Warrior Posted 7 October, 2015 Share Posted 7 October, 2015 I watched the programme last night . It was quite disturbing to say the least The ex social worker Chris Fay claiming that boys were provided from a local boys home to the elm road guest house Didn't stack up especially when one of the ex boys stated he had no knowledge of ever going there. He spoke very well And was abuse at the boys home which lead to the headmaster and his friend be (a priest being charge do) unfortunately the HM died before he was sentenced you would have thought that the Ex Social worker would have checked his facts were correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You believe wrong. http://www.lawgazette.co.uk/law/euro-ruling-to-protect-reputation-of-deceased/5039894.article And given the aggressive way the MacAlpine family's lawyers have pursued every little comment repeating what is an established libel, I'd advise an edit. Just to give you an estimate, Sally Bercow said something rather more 'innocent' than you ('Why is MacAlpine trending') and ended up with a bill a long way north of £100,000.
