Recently there have been a fair few high profile cases where people are accused of something and tried by the media. The Jimmy Saville case being the most recent. Whilst I agree the apparent evidence seems damning it is all from the media, none of us have seen hard evidence as a jury would and yet anyone landing on our planet would assume the man has been tried and found Guilty by a court of law.
What has happened to innocent until proven Guilty, or is it something else that has gone in the Stalinist state we live in?
It is not always for the best not naming 'the accused.' Do you remember when Ulrika Johnson said she was raped by someone in TV but refused to name them. John Leslie consequently was blacklisted and lost his livelihood due to speculation over this, although the actual purpetrator was never named.
I find it hard to believe he has been groping for decades and no one picked up on it. Could he have belonged to a secret club where 'don't tell' is practised. On a similar theme David Kelly was eliminated because he spouted out some truths. Would the same have happened to the sqealer who reported Savile.
@pdq - "David Kelly was eliminated because he spouted some truths?" Oh yes? And this statement would be based upon what evidence?
I fail to see why it is necessary to manufacture some secret cabal that bumps off squealers. Given his position, and the markedly different cultural attitudes, it seems all he needed was a few people to turn a blind eye.
