Jimmy Savile was one of the most well-know stars of British television. Everyone knew he was eccentric and many people apparently knew he was also a sexual predator who targeted young girls for decades.

Donna, thank you for posting this morbidly intriguing examination of Savile.
Like so many, he used and abused the “cloak of respectability.” If one is “connected” with wealth, power, and influence, then they believe that they are patently immune to scrutiny. From Savile to Lance Armstrong to OJ Simpson – it’s all about “connections.”

Once again, nice, funny, and charming blinds most to the monster behind the mask.

Horrific.
And he had minions too.
The nail on this guy’s coffin was his attitude about gary glitter’s child porn and the arrest in Vietnam. Once you know how spaths talk, how they twist everything into a WTF? moment, you would know that he was a spath just from hearing that statement.
From there, you CAN take it further and know that spaths have NO LIMITS and extrapolate that he was a pedophile himself.
But people don’t want to assume the worst. They would rather assume the best. Just as in the movie, “Doubt” we can KNOW things without actually witnessing them because of EXPERIENCE.
This guy had red BANNERS waving all over and nobody “knew”.
sick.

I’ve been following this case in the news in the UK and I think it is gonna make Penn State look like “nothing”–the only difference is the US had someone to send to prison.
It makes you want to puke for sure.

Only in England — Americans would have seen right through his “eccentric” behavior. At least Jerry Sandusky actually seemed normal — which is probably more of a scare.

BBE, I don’t know if Americans would have seen right through it. Every time we turn around we find another public spath. It’s sad.
Evil is everywhere.

BBE,
We didn’t see through michael jackson’s mask either.
And that was blatant, but he got acquitted.
There was something peculiar about Sandusky’s defense. It was almost as if someone decided enough was enough and things started to fall apart for him.
First, the defense allowed him to be interviewed over the phone on a news show. That was when he paused for several seconds before responding to the question of whether he was attracted to young boys. Then the defense rushed the case to trial, only to complain later that they didn’t have time to prepare.
There was also the little known fact that a prosecutor who had investigated the case, a decade earlier, went missing and his body has never been found.
I believe there was more to the Sandusky matter, more people in high places involved, than we will ever know.

Skylar;
It is not unheard of for defense attorneys to use such a tactic — let’s just hope that the Appellate Judge sees right thru this baseless appeal, just as we do.
I too believe Sandusky killed that investigator. Let’s hope Jerry is never released…
skylar
BBE,
I could be wrong but Sandusky doesn’t come across as a killer, just a pervert.
I think there are others involved that didn’t want to risk exposure, people with more money and political clout.
Spaths rarely work alone. They like to brag too much. They like to share their duper’s delight with other spaths. They recognize each other, easily, so it’s not hard for them to meet a kindred demon. My spath said, “It’s amazing how EASY it is for me to find guys who are willing to rape a girl if they think she is drugged up.” It IS easy because spaths are everywhere. And some who would not score high on the PCL-R are still capable of evil if they think their won’t be repercussions.
