Goodness me, just heard the news Sad

I met Rolf twice, once at Heathrow collecting our baggage from Singapore - he signed my school book and a few years later at a bar in the Mandarin Hotel, Singapore again.

I hope he's not as guilty as he's being made out to be.

Good luck mate.

Rolf drew a sketch in my book ... it was of a man drowning in a pond with his open-stretched hand crying for help.

Maybe it was a sign?

It was in June 1980.

His family only standing buy him because they want his money, his daughter is greedy.
Must have no morals themselves supporting a convicted pedo.
Once all the darkness is brought to light he could be facing a lot more charges.
An evil man.

The thing is bigmo, they were untouchable.

Thanks to the work of Mark Williams Thomas and the bravery of the victims justice is prevailing, though no one can be happy seeing an old man who had entertained us through the years go to prison.

To be quite honest it all turns your stomach.

Shocking that no politicians, alive ones anyway, have been done. Nor any proper "a-list" celebrities or judiciary. Just going after the easy targets who look a bit weird, guilty as they are.

This whole operation is a fcking disgrace.

Without saying too much, my mum has had very close involvement in Rolf and other's cases. And I hope my posting record on here proves I'm not an attention seeker. She spits at operation Yewtree. It's a whole charade setup to appease people on the failings involving Saville.

Don't be surprised if in a few year's a national storm over it once someone breaks their silence.

Careers and money. 2 simple things that will ensure silence. No top brass is going to risk their 60k+ a year job on a few old lags doing time, no matter how wrong it is.

Once the careers are finished and retirement is being enjoyed, there will money to be made exposing it all and you'll probably get trampled in the rush. Mark my words.

I cant say, but she has had close involvement in a few, most of all Harris and Glitter. Although the latter is vile and his son isn't much better either.

See what I mean Jack,

If they couldn't be bothered to investigate and deal with this years ago, why after the furore involving Saville?
By:

When: 02 Jul 14 00:38
And don't forget, the main culprit in the Westminster paedo ring (as they put it) is Cyril Smith, who is now dead and not involved in top level politics.

How convenient.

Why exactly? Operation set up to investigate historical sexual abuse leads to the convictions of people who have committed historical sexual abuse and it's a charade??? Sorry but what the ****???

Thank goodness that - According to Del Palmer - he was on his best behavior when working with Kate Bush on her Aerial album.

Just a word!!
I've had a number of emails, comments etc regarding the outcome of the court case involving Rolf Harris... It's not for me to comment on his guilt except to say that in all the dealings that I and I believe Kate had with him There was never anything other than a professional attitude shown by him.. At no time did we ever have cause to think ill of his behaviour... He came to play music and, as far as I am aware, that's all he did!!...

Apologists need to remember just because he showed manners/restraint in front of you does not mean he committed no crimes! I'm sure Peter Sutcliffe said please when he popped into his sweet shop for a quarter of Barley Sugars!

If found guilty in a court of law by a jury who weighed up all the evidence who are you to argue as an outsider with limited information?

As for letting sleeping dogs lie.......sorry but justice does not have a finite period. I for one as a father am pleased peados and sex pests like Harris, Glitter, Clifford and Hall etc are now finally paying for what they have done. Pity Smith, Saville etc got away with it. But just because they did doesn't justify not bringing to account other with historical guilt.

I mean, nobody would suggest a cold case murder be forgotten from 10 years ago because 'a lot of time has passed.'
