@Amanda,
It's interesting about investigations, when they figure out that witnesses aren't necessarily reliable, they sometimes stop investigations, or carefully select those witnesses who they think have a credible case (even though some carefully put together and credible cases are STILL a tissue of lies).
@JK,
I learned to like the Fall eventually, though not all their stuff, just certain songs. |

Answer for Sheba Bear......
This is a very long story and I know the answers to your questions. Safe to say, when I cam speak freely I will, but in the meantime look up David Rose's piece on her.
One thing I can tell you, I met her for the first time at another Uncle's funeral around 2003, she was 40 and said that day it was the first time she had met her Uncle Jimmy. She said it to me and several members of her family who all gave statements to the police to prove her accusations false. The investigations into her lies were suddenly dropped by WYP under the directions from Yewtree "you will be believed" I think there were 11 signed statements in all from us.
She was a very handy poster girl. You've no idea of the truth behind this lot. |

Same for me but that one in a hundred was often a diamond you'd never find otherwise. Could never understand his love for The Fall (I tried). But we shared adoration for the Undertones. And I have several personal lovely memories to cherish. |

Peel had very idiosyncratic tastes in music. They wouldn't have been mine, put it that way. I couldn't listen to his show, if I did I might find one track in a hundred that I would like. |

I hope I'm not speaking out of turn here but one of the weird things about the Savile case was the allegation by one of his great-nieces that she was abused by him - a claim that was investigated by police for reasons other than the obvious one.
www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/405...n-compensation-claim
The outcome of the police investigation was never made public, to my knowledge. Why not? Either he had been abusing her or he hadn't. And if the result of the investigation was that he hadn't, was it somehow convenient that the public were not allowed to know?
Super injunction to protect the (in)credibility of Yewtree, maybe? Or to keep the 'Savile is a paedo' gravy train chugging along nicely? |
