What stopped the likes of John Lydon from speaking up earlier. Surely nobody is going to accuse Johnny Rotten as being part of the 'Establishment'? John Lydon made his claims way back. In the 70s or early eighties I believe. He was ignored. The victims of Savile also went to the police at the time. They were ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it true that Boris's hero, the bitch Thatcher, was well in with Saville? Perhaps Saville is the liar Boris's role model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna B Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) 6 hours ago, West 77 said: Those making allegations against Savile when he was still alive weren't ignored. Savile wasn't prosecuted because those making the allegations were reluctant to testify against him in a court of law. The victims most certainly were willing to testify but never got the chance because there was no way it would ever have got past the CPS and come to court. The CPS need the evidence to pass certain criteria before it being brought before the court. These sort of cases are particularly difficult because it is usually 'he said/she said' evidence - especially difficult when coming up against a well known personality with a reputation as a charitable saint. The only way this would have gone to court would have been as a private prosecution which would have been prohibitively expensive and doomed to failure. It's only when witnesses start to build up against a person with similar, corroborating evidence that it would go forward. The police had the corroborating evidence but probably didn't know it, as it was spread across different forces all over the country . Nobody brought all the pieces together as a whole.
