More muck dredged up about Rolf Harris.

He was a lot more prolific than we've first been led to believe. 'Octopus' on steroids and a skateboard.

Jesus, what an ugly creep.

something Im not understanding, perhaps you can help me Herbert

Their allegations come after 84-year-old Harris was jailed for almost six years last Friday at London's Southwark Crown Court after being unmasked as a predator with a fixation for underage girls.
All this coming out of the woodwork, Rolf apparently had a fixation for underage girls. 
If this was the case why was he also fondling and molesting mature age women?




No, no, Rolf was apparently an all rounder.
From what I have been reading (where he groped one woman presenter while the show was actually on air and while his wife was in the room), I am getting a sense that part of the excitement of it might have been in the danger, the risk taking.

Mind you, he evaluated the risks very well. No doubt he and the woman doing the interviewing were behind a desk, so the camera wasn't capturing the action and he guessed rightly that the woman wouldn't say anything on air.

But what if she had? The mind can only boggle.

Point is, he chose his situations well.

But this was an exhibitionist and someone who loved a bit of risk taking. Think of him molesting that friend of his daughter's while the daughter was in the same room, sleeping.

I am also betting that for some of his assaults-the hand that crept just a fraction onto a breast during a photo shoot, the lick of the neck or the unwanted kiss etc-that he imagined they were just small enough incidents to keep away from serious trouble.
How wrong he was.

Come on, Ian! Give him the credit he deserves! He was a pentathlon athlete of sexual offenders!

The 'frisson'. Rapists probably get an extra charge because of this element of risk-taking.

I beg to differ: How right he was ... He nearly got away with it all. It was only the serendipity of the Savile case that led to Harris being caught unexpectedly in the net cast out by the Yew Tree investigations.

Sherri: You wouldn't want the truth to get in the way of a good story would you?

If you'd read the article, you'd see that the alleged incident occurred whilst on a bed filming a show called "big breakfast" of which she looks to have had one too many and which was obviously intended to be risqué segment. From the looks of her toy boy, it's not the only "big" thing she enjoys.

A few of the comments on the story sum things up. These so "so called" strong outspoken women couldn't have come forward earlier? Seems to me like a hooker crying foul because she wasn't paid the fee she'd expected.
Some people must really enjoy filling the coffers of the legal system and ailing tabloids.

She was one of several who had come forward and whose evidence was not permitted into trial by Justice Sweeney as "prejudicial to the defendant".

Brazen Rolf Harris wanted to star in WA child protection video in 1980s
PETER LAW AND ANNABEL HENNESSY PERTHNOW JULY 06, 2014 2:18PM

A BRAZEN Rolf Harris had the audacity to meet with WA’s top authorities – including police and the education department – in an attempt to front a local safety campaign about child sexual abuse in the 1980s.

In 1986, Harris offered to create an educational video for schools telling kids how to deal with sex predators.

The now disgraced singer wanted to produce and act in the video, one year after he made a 20-minute film called Kids Can Say No for a UK child protection charity.

In the British video, which re-emerged this week, Harris sings with a group of children: “My body’s nobody’s body but mine. You run your own body. Let me run mine.”

Chillingly, the last of the 12 counts of indecent assault against girls of which Harris was convicted happened just weeks after he held talks with officials in Perth.

Criminologist Carol Ronken told The Sunday Times “extremely manipulative” child sex offenders didn’t just groom their victims, but entire organisations and communities.

Ms Ronken said by placing themselves in positions of trust, abusers could silence their victims, gain access to kids and appease feelings of guilt.

While Harris was visiting Perth in April 1986, a meeting was convened by Des Semple, who was director-general of the State’s Community Services Department at the time.

Apparently there was a high level paedophile ring in the upper levels of British society including politicians. The British government is under pressure to expose it but they fear losing their parliamentary majority if many are jailed.

Below are numerous links. It appears that every instance of evidence passed to authorities "disappeared".

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-28189072
"... Home Secretary Theresa May is to make a "significant" statement to MPs on claims of historical sex abuse linked to Westminster, the BBC understands.

Her department faces accusations it failed to act on allegations of a paedophile ring when they first emerged in the 1980s.

A senior government source said Mrs May will go beyond merely announcing who is to head a review into the claims.

Labour has called for a "wide-ranging" inquiry into how they were handled.

The home secretary is also also set to announce a review into public bodies and their duty of care towards children..."

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-28187357

"... Paedophile group leader 'stored material at Home Office'
By Tom Bateman

Steven Adrian Smith had clearance to work as an electrical contractor at the Westminster building in the late 1970s and early 1980s when he chaired the Paedophile Information Exchange.

The Home Office declined to comment on Smith, who was jailed in 1991 and 2011.

It said an inquiry into whether PIE received any public funds was ongoing.

A review last year found that 11 Home Office files from the 1980s relating to the Paedophile Information Exchange had been destroyed.

It comes amid a separate Home Office review ordered by Prime Minister David Cameron into what happened to a "dossier" allegedly naming high-profile child abusers handed to then Home Secretary Leon Brittan in 1983.

Lord Brittan said last week he received a "substantial bundle of papers" from the late Conservative MP Geoffrey Dickens and handed it to officials..."

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-28182373

"...Lord Tebbit: "People thought that the establishment was to be protected"

A former cabinet minister has said there "may well have been" a political cover-up of child sex abuse in the 1980s.

Lord Tebbit told the Andrew Marr Show the culture at the time was to protect "the establishment" rather than delving "too far" into such claims.

His comments come after it emerged that the Home Office could not locate 114 potentially relevant files.

Current MP Keith Vaz said files had been lost "on an industrial scale"..."

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-28141531

"... The MP who passed a dossier of paedophile allegations to the Home Office in the 1980s told his family the details were "explosive".

Geoffrey Dickens, who died in 1995, said it would "blow the lid off" the lives of powerful and famous child abusers, his son has told the BBC.

Barry Dickens said he would have been "hugely angered" that the allegations had not been properly investigated.

Labour is demanding a fresh inquiry into the missing dossier.

It comes after one of the party's MPs called for the then Home Secretary Leon Brittan to make public what he knew about paedophiles operating "in and around" Westminster in the 1980s..."

Well it doesn’t take long for the word to get around.

JUDGE IS SENDING ME DOWN


There's an old Australian entertainer, sighing, crying
And he shrugs off his legal team
And he turns to the reporters, gathered all around him
And he says

Won’t have much hope for a grope, bloke
Won’t have much hope for a grope
At my age I can’t bend for the soap, bloke
I’ll have no hope of a grope

All together now
The judge is sending me down, sport
Judge is sending me down
The news is all over town, sport
The judge is sending me  down

It was only a compliment love, guv
Just a compliment love
There’s no need to cry “Heavens Above”, guv
Just a compliment love

All together now
The judge is sending me down, sport
Judge is sending me down
The news is all over town, sport
The judge is sending me  down

A non-paying guest of the Queen, bean
A non-paying guest of the Queen
Should’ve sacked me legal team, bean
Now I’m gonna get me bum reamed

All together now
The judge is sending me down, sport
Judge is sending me down
The news is all over town, sport
The judge is sending me  down
