DO-GOODERS 'WORSE THAN SAVILE' says Barbara Hewson
Barbara Hewson |
Jimmy Savile |

It is a sinister
development that Hewson, amongst others, seem to be seeking a
downgrading or in some cases abandonment, of the whole historic child
abuse investigations. It is this very type action which has
prevented, disguised and concealed these crimes for so many years and
has prevented the criminal sex offenders from being investigated and
where necessary, brought to justice. Describing charges as “a witch
hunt” and “"low-level misdemeanor’s and ""nothing
like serious crime", is an insult to the victims of these
perverts and to the concept of justice.
As a barrister, she should
be shamed into an apology for these crass and inflammatory remarks,
but of course, it would be naive to think that over the decades that
these conspiracies to prevent justice and the crimes themselves have
been carried out, that there has been no involvement or active
participation by some members of the legal profession.
It would be compounding
the effects and the injustices already self evident from the
investigations to date to allow any abandonment of further enquiries.
Only now are some of the victims achieving any sense of closure or
satisfaction after years of being ignored or even threatened should
they continue with their allegations. For some of course there will
never be closure or satisfaction as they are no longer with us for
one reason or another. The conspiracy of silence and the web of
intrigue is finally being broken. It would be a criminal act in
itself to stop now.
