why police and others say it's because all these allegations about Savile are so similar that they believe them.

Surely, after such massive media coverage, similarity would be guaranteed?

"He put his hand down my knickers" crops up virtually word for word in almost every statement; I'd have thought different accounts would be far more believable.

Identical accounts merely imply influence by published stories.

"Spindler praised the victims who had come forward and said their accounts all corroborated each other. "That is why we can be so confident of their accounts. We believe them because they are all saying the same thing," he said."

It's not exactly an unlikely phrase to keep cropping up. But, yes, it seems difficult to establish who is just dipping into the common repository of claims and who legit.

JK, as earlier, and often, stated elsewhere and here.

For the decades overdue return/installation of Fair & Balanced British Justice, since the populist Tory-coward Howard made entirely UNcorroborated evidence admissable (she-says/he-says).

The HUGE injustices of 'Trawling- contamination' and 'Compensation-corruption' MUST be finally addressed.

By:

1. COMPULSORY police & agencies SECURED-VIDEO tapings from VERY FIRST and ongoing contacts (by cam-phone and from 1st-doorknock) with ALL witnesses & suspects. ALL partys to be visible at ALL times to prevent non-verbal 'signals.

I.E. NOT just at formal taped interviews after much police-corrupt/SERIOUSLY CRIMINAL 'groundwork' may have been done.

2. FULL DISCLOSURES of ALL expectations of press/media FAT-FEES & VAST govt. compensation-payments, prejudicially 'trailed' by police press/media & agencies, to 'alleged victims'.

Further comments invited before mailing this via trusted lawyers to ALL-600+ Brit M.P.s for their open-day motion, or whatever clap-bilge they have for finally enacting COMMON SENSE JUSTICE & PROTECTION FOR THE PEOPLE.

NOT for the BENT-mainstream populist press/media for their greed/ratings/profit.

LoL.

Very clever. So, he had his hand down some knickers of girls he didn't even ever meet, in that case.

For all accounts & purposes, I really wish that Mr Savile, was still alive, as we then could maybe establish what is truth & what is not. And whether he was bigger than Royalty!

I am flabbergasted that everyone talking about JS on all forms of media is assuming his guilt. Not one outlet has him as "alleged". That cant be right? Why has no one questioned this? We live in frightening times.

Sweet Angel.

U nailed it, frightening times - for Scaredy Cats.

Keep On Blogging.

Power To THE PEOPLES' WEB, Above Which NO ONE Stands !


LoL.

that goes for the finest in blue...confirming guilt even before they have reviewed the evidence.

I have a feeling this is going to end very badly for a lot of people..(not Savile of course)..but some accusers will be found to be fakes, some (high profile ) yapping to the media with egg on their face..lawsuits a plenty on all sides (Fred Star should make a motza but looks like he might expire before he collects..high blood pressure?)

Those days are gone, angel.

Even Cameron last week suggested that where we cannot get a conviction (presumably because there is no evidence !!!) we should still find a way to punish the accused (he didn't exactly use those words - but thats what he meant)!
