I think the 'over-emphasis' is on the part of the media, not by the molested population of the country.

03 Jul 14 14:31 Those molested were too scared to expose the molestors, if they killed that person it would make them easier to catch their a lot more slimy to fall for that. It's a different world now Taxi , the death penalty would scare some of these scum bags off though accept not all. The likes of Harris and Clifford won't commit suicide ,they' ll probably look at prison as an opportunity to abuse more people, even if its now got to be men. you imbecile ! Rolf Harris is 84. The death penalty was abolished in the UK partly because of cases like that of the teenage, mentally feeble Derek Bentley ( he had serious head injuries during the war when a bomb hit the house he was living in). He was found guilty of murder even though someone else pulled the trigger. The conviction was belatedly quashed ... Bentley was hanged in 1953. |

AS I understand it, and I've not followed it all that closely so forgive me if I am wrong, but the number of allegations against him seems to have been the crucial, and pretty much only evidence. And there is a logic in that, if lots of people make claims against Harris and none do about, I don't know, Tony Hart (!). then it seems reasonable to suspect something was not quite right.
However, there is a difference, legal and moral, between being a bit touchy-feely, a bit of a dirty old man, and basically sleazy, and being guilty of every charge brought against him. Several, I think, came after he was named openly, and definitely after his name was spread across the internet. And the same line of thinking works the other way too. If one woman/girl was the subject of abuse then it is entirely plausible that they didn\t complain. If lots were, surely one would have? The Savile case has set a worrying precedent for 'guilty through lots of people saying bad things about you'. |

There must be literally hundreds of celebrities from the 70s and 80s who are crapping their pants. Saville was pure evil but the likes of Harris and the PR guru were typical of how celebrities behaved back then. It was a different time and judging them by todays morals is dangerous. Most of the accusers are merely chasing money and a place on big brother.

It's because of what you said ,Close hungry, that people like Saville and Harris got away with it for so long.
Very few will make up stories for the money- they know if they get caught out making it up they could end up in prison themselves. To think masses will make up stories is naive and just encourages pedos to believe they can carry on getting away with it. The " making up stuff" is the pedos first line of defence in court. |

Rolf Harris browsed websites showing images of girls believed to be as young as 13, it can now be reported following his conviction for indecent assault.
When detectives examined the 84-year-old entertainer's desktop computer after they searched his home in Bray, Berkshire, in 2012 while investigating historical claims of indecent assault, they discovered he had visited websites with such names as "My little nieces", "Tiny teen girlfriends" and "Russian girlfriends". They also found a note in Harris's diary, in his handwriting, with instructions on how to delete the history on his internet browser programme. Harris was charged with four counts of making indecent images of children – the notion of "making" an image, based on a 1978 law, also includes viewing them on a computer – as well as the 12 counts of indecent assault on which he was unanimously convicted by a jury at Southwark crown court on Monday. |

Both daughters told me that you can't take photographs of your own kids at swimming pools these days.
But if you want to spend between a fiver and a tenner, some places have an official photographer who can do it for you. How do we know these 'officials' are okay? There will be a heated argument with management if I get to see my grandchildren in the swimming pool, because I will take photographs. |

A BRISTOL woman who invested her life savings in a painting by disgraced celebrity Rolf Harris says she fears it has been devalued by up to 90 per cent.
Sarah Gardiner, 35, bought Horses at the Lights months before the star was arrested to provide some financial security when she retired. After he was asked to paint the Queen it was expected his works would become even more valuable. But months later Harris, 84, was arrested for a string of indecent assault charges against young women. On Monday he was convicted of 12 counts of indecent assault and is expected to face jail when he is sentenced later today. Sara, who lives with partner Mark and their baby daughter Lucy, said: “I’m sick that I bought the work of such an evil man and gutted that it’s now not going to be worth the canvas it’s painted on.” Auctioneer and TV expert Mark Stacey conceded that selling a Harris painting would be “very difficult.” |

No logroller, I believe there is criminal activity and non-criminal activity. There is wanting to smack you over the head with a watermelon for being so stupid, and there is actually doing so.
And yes Rickibobby - why do I get the awful feeling that is a shared account between an extremely insecure couple - I do of course realise that my desire for actual evidence of wrongdoing makes me responsible for all criminal acts, ever. |

The jury in the Harris case obviously thought there was enough evidence to convict him, and given further
information that's come to light since his conviction it appears it was the correct one. With further cases possibly pending ,hopefully he will never walk the streets as a free man again. |
