Do you think that morale & morals are at an all-time low in the celebrity business? |

Should the police arrest people first & then drum up some charges later? |

From numerous reports it appears that Saville's reign of abuse stretched from 1955 to 2009, and according to some reports people in the highest echelons of the BBC, the Police, and Government, had knowledge of this. |

I worry for the health of Rolf Harris, he looks a broken man. |

I have to agree with everything said here, and also feel like Magpie and AnnCardiff that the same result is brought about for DLT and Rolf Harris. I have never believed it of them. |

Guilty until proved innocent, it appears. |

I agree with your final sentence Island. |

I agree Andysmum, that the accused should also remain anonymous but in cases such as this one there is no way that a 'high profile' person would be out of the papers for long. Also, Facebook would be full of it and include even more dubious 'facts'. |

Hear, hear Andysmum...........if you are innocent until proved guilty, no-one should have the right to sully your reputation until after the verdict. |

The victims, real or otherwise, are allowed to remain anonymous. I think the accused should have the same right, with the trial held in camera. The names could be released if there is a guilty verdict, when they would deserve everything they got. |

Does not surprise me in the least. Last week one lot of charges were dropped because his accuser could not actually remember the assault actually happening!!! |

couldn't agree more Merlin - and I feel the accusers should be prosecuted |

I,m begining to wonder after the fiasco of the early investigation (Failed or Abandoned) Of Saville, whether they have got a League table as to who can claim the biggest Scalp.Its not doing any good to the people who have been genuinely Abused in this way. :-| |

I can't for the life of me understand why any women would put them selves through this. Except I suppose for their fifteen minutes of fame or enormous compensation. I hope that. I hope that William Roache and his family will be able to move on. |

Hooray! What a relief this verdict must be for Bill and his family. I have fingers crossed for D.L.T and Rolf Harris as I don't believe that either of these guys are guilty either. |

in cases like this I feel the accusers should be named |
