maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted February 12, 2015 80 year old Michael Salmon gets 18 years for indecently assaulting girls at Stoke Mandeville during the same period when Sir Jimmy was up to similar antics in the same place. Even with good behaviour, he'll be lucky to see his home again. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-31439686 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time 8,618 Posted February 13, 2015 Talbot guilty on two counts, not guilty on 8, of indecently assaulting teenage boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,533 Posted February 13, 2015 Talbot guilty on two counts, not guilty on 8, of indecently assaulting teenage boys. So we have to wait another month to find out if he serves any prison time. Sad thing is, according to the news reports that I've read, the witnesses' evidence was at times very patchy, but then again when people are victims of sexual abuse, they try to block out memories of what happened. Unless they documented it in a diary, but then again why would they want to be constantly reminded of that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's the one used to jump about in that dock on those expanded polystyrene blocks painted like the British Isles for GMTV that you only ever watched in the hope he'd miss and fall in isn't he?

Deathray 2,940 Posted February 26, 2015 May I ask the mods a question? Giving the thread about alleged members of the jimmy savile posthumous fan club in DL extracurricular was closed how come this thread has been left untouched? Did a person mentioned in that thread but not this one threaten a lawsuit or summat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we're talking about the same thread, I think I closed it because posters were speculating who might be arrested next for child abuse, whereas this one doesn't. Suppose it hasn't directly (at least for the last few pages - cba to check further back). It has however involved people suggesting several dead politicians with absolutely no recourse for self defence were in some way implicated in child abuse which is arguably more beyond the pale than hinting at living celebs whom rumours have circulated about for decades?

There is a report option for any post a member feels has gone morally beyond the pale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted February 27, 2015 Arguably yes, but legally you can't libel the dead, which is the essential difference from a moderation perspective. Is that so? With that question I mean: it may be a fact that under English law one cannot libel the dead, I simply don't know. I do know that one can under Dutch law. A Dutch person can start legal procedures, both civil and criminal, against defamation of a dead relative. I suppose my country isn't the only one to have laws for that. I've never seen libellous stuff about Dutchmen here, dead or alive, but should it happen I might be legally obliged to remove it. regards, Hein 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although, this article (complete with photo of Jimmy Savile!) would suggest that the existing arrangement may be subject to change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom 2,533 Posted March 18, 2015 Beeb to commission a documentary about Saville. I couldn't see in the article if it's intended to be made from archive footage, or an actor portraying Saville or a mix of both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I couldn't see in the article if it's intended to be made from archive footage, or an actor portraying Saville or a mix of both. Its all getting a bit bollocks, this. How many more documentaries/ TV investigations are there going to be about Savile and Paedos in high places? Its the kind of stuff that will appeal to, well, paedos who will be glopping away to all this "Its in the public interest" shite. Its all a bit yuk, innit.
