Australian Politics Forum - Rolf Harris might be having some company soon

Lord Herbert Gold Member Offline Posts: 34441 Gender:	Rolf Harris might be having some company soon May 21^st, 2015 at 11:50am link The hunt for 'historic' kiddy-fiddlers has grown into biblical proportions. It might end up with more people in jail than out. Cliff Richards is still not in the clear ... He may soon find himself spending a Summer Holiday next to Rolfy's cell.

another 10 years.. wow even more will be dead by then...I can understand it cannot be rushed but why not have more judges looking at it...those who are found to have a case.. need to have some justice as well..

and to be fair..someone like Cliff Richards should not be mentioned unless they have a case...

I despised Rolf Harris’s cloddish public persona which was an embarrassment to Australia’s Arts and Music community, but before we drag him out of his cell and lynch him for other transgressions I would like to offer another, perhaps controversial, perspective.

If Harris had sexual relationships with one or more minors, and those young people had reached physical maturity, civilised society cannot excuse his conduct, but I think his mentality should be viewed somewhat differently to the drooling clergyman buggering a eight year old choir boy.

The stuff they're getting done for wasn't an actual offense here - and prob the UK - before the late 1970's. Were they not high profile, it's unlikely the cops would have been even vaguely bothered in attempting to garner a prosecution.
