I have had a good look around the internet this afternoon. It's amazing what you can find out about Savile, going back years. His autobiography, his interviews, including one with the famous Psychiatrist Anthony Clare, etc etc. He more or less admits what he was, so how did no-one see what was staring them in the face?
I think his victims will run into the high hundreds. I believe that senior people in our society actively covered up for him. He knew politicians, gangsters, police, royalty, top people in broadcasting... the list goes on. That is the only possible explanation. What hold did he have over some of these people? He wasn't from the same social class: he was an ex-pitman and wrestler, - a funny little man in a tracksuit who was a DJ, did kids TV and raised money for charity. Poor Frank Bruno, taken under the wing of that devil. No wonder he has had a relapse in his mental illness.
I would be interested to know more about Savile's connection to Peter Sutcliffe. Sutcliffe stated in the trial transcript that one body was left near to Saville's home. How did he know where Savile's home was? He had many homes. Did Savile know Sutcliffe before Broadmoor? Did Sutcliffe visit Savile's clubs years before the murders? Was Savile involved in even more than assaulting children?What a disgusting saga. Peadophiles are everywhere in the power structure of our society - here's an interesting report from 11th October this year about another suspect, a Head of Childrens' Services at a London Council, no less. You couldn't make it up:
