Bob Woffinden's evisceration of Russell Causley's trial is representative of many UK prosecutions.

There's little idea of what really happened, often because of laziness or I competence or partisanship from investigators. There's little or no evidence either. Instead, the state repeatedly girls accusations at the defendant in lieu of any real proof. Just like a Soviet show trial from the 30s.

Marvellous.

If only something decent could come of this.

I see he is bragging how he 'investigated Savile for almost a year totally unpaid off my own back'

Is it possible to make a Television programme and not be paid?

I had the impression from the documentary that MWT was not only probing the daughter's wounds but being played by the convicted party. I don't follow Bob Woffinden's argument that you can't have committed murder if you have botched an insurance scam.

I watched this and my thoughts were that she left and at some point possibly lost her life after by murder or other causes.
There is a possibility she is still alive so why not offer her an amnesty if she comes forward.
She could be abroad and completely unaware of this goings on.
Two people know for sure if the old man did it, him and the mum.
The prog was a little one sided in favour of what Mark said went and a shame he did not show evidence to prove his musings.
It's very easy for the daughter to be 100% sure the dad did kill her she hates her dad and did when they were all together.
Unfortunately MWT fell short in his investigator guise and really told nothing more other than things we were not privy too prior that dis not prove either way but put the learning towards murder.
The girlfriend holds the key in all this.

Hurls! Hurls accusations...

Can autocorrect make Freudian slips??

Interestng he says those found not guilty does not always mean they have been falsely accused. Wasn't he found not guilty of blackmail?

His Ego is at it again...

He is now says, and I quote.

'I knew weeks b4 he (Savile) died & started to investigate him which led to his exposure.'

So full of his own shite and self importance.

I long for the day when he gets Exposed and is disgraced and suffers the same kind of reputaion loss that many others have.
