 Ex Jersey police chief calls for inquiry. The former deputy chief police officer in Jersey has called for a UK police force to investigate claims Jimmy Savile abused children on the island. But he added he did not think the States of Jersey "would allow anyone independent to come in".

Former Deputy Chief Officer Lenny Harper,

  Lenny Harper may be right in his comment that "the States would not allow anyone independent to come in."

However, in view of the new evidence, and the blatant cover up by those involved in the abuse from within the Jersey establishment, the time has come for the States to be reminded that the the Crown retains residual responsibility for the "good government" of the island and will intervene "in the event of a fundamental breakdown in public order or the rule of law, endemic corruption in the government or other extreme circumstances".. This is one of those circumstances where the Crown has no option but to intervene. This scandal with all its wider implications has been going on for far to long and now demands full investigation and prosecution of those involved, no matter what their position is, or was, in the social or political establishment. Should it be established that there are people on the mainland also involved in the cover up by assisting those involved  in Jersey to block or obstruct previous investigations, then these individuals too,  no matter who they are,  must be prosecuted. The victims of Savile and the other as yet unidentified abusers in Jersey, demand justice. There has been too much delay, prevarication and conspiracy to conceal the facts. The United Kingdom must ensure that the rule of law extends into the States Chambers and across the whole island.
