Unless it's because he has another trial & further charges to face, not sure why it has to take 8 months to decide his sentence (4th May), but I agree & think it'll be a long one.
//It makes you wonder who else is guilty of these crimes//
It does, but then one needs to be careful.
50% of the claims against Savile are impossible - as in cdnt have done X as he was 200 m away.
Having been accused myself ( 'a judge has already been over this you know' - but hey she just repeated the accusations and they were retaken seriously ) yes I agree one has to be careful and the accuser has to show the facts
NOT the person with moolah ( such as Randy Andy ) has to refute allegations....
