Just before Christmas I watched a documentary about Jimmy Savile and it was very thought provoking and insightful.
He did much for charities and vulnerable members of society.
Coming from a poor background and often unloved maybe that had a bearing on what he became in his adult life?.
I'm not for one minute suggesting he didn't do what people have accused him of.
But the likes of Harvey Weinstein were around to defend themselves.
Jimmy Savile wasn't alive to do so. Why didn't the people he assaulted or abused come forward many years ago?. It seems there were plenty of victims so they could have all stood up and been counted.
I'm at a loss as to why a man who did very well for himself considering his background and lack of formal education would find pleasure in going to Broadmoor etc and do wicked things.
