No thats not what I said. I said I thought it "sad" not excuseable. And you just made my second point calling the touching the breast of a 16/17 year old is not "praying on" [sic] her in my opinion. Its curious to see that in the 80s this wasn't particularly a big deal, it was part of growing up, its only lately that people get the vapours over that level of incident

Maybe. Its certainly a question of balance and personally I think the pendulum has swung a bit too far from being too little fuss to too much fuss. Your mileage may vary

I think its pretty "sad" that a 50 year old bloke is touching up a 9 year old child. If that's what you class as part of growing up, then quite frankly I'm speechless.

Ah yes, I missed that one, I've just reread the article. Yes agreed, that puts a much more serious complexion on it

I love the way some of you are joking about some vile c*nt abusing under age girls. Would you be making the same jokes if someone of his age was "just" doing these things to your daughter?

I hope he gets locked up, personally.

Of course not, but that's the internet. Non-consequecial online banter, with little, or no relevance to real life.

There've been plenty of people arrested for what they say on the internet, particularly twitter, so I'd say there's plenty of consequence and relevance to real life!

Well the thing with charging him is they probably have considered they do have sufficient evidence, hence proceeding unlike DLT or Jim Davidson

Where there's blame there's a claim as they say

Apparently Hall put all his wealth on his wife's name to evade the compos. He did that in February this year when he denied all the claims against him.

I find it a real worry hearing about all these alleged sexual offences. What has been going on I wonder. The actions of that homosexual ring raping little boys in care homes is a case in point.

Has this country descended into complete moral degradation or is it maybe all down to the sexual declivities of those in positions of power?

I think you will find that its been going on for years with the authorities turning a blind eye, hence Saville getting away with it.

Remember, no matter what the papers say or what any allegedvictim says, Saville is actually innocent and that is fact.

Oh yes I had worked all that out in fact.

Very disappointing that the authorities should look the other way for their own sakes one has to presume. How can anyone with any kind of decent character just ignore that sort of shameful behaviour. The effect on those poor lads must have been mindbending.

All those who were in authority and can be shown to have realised what what was happening should be prosecuted as well and the guilty ones should be as badly punished as those carrying out those disgusting acts.

15 months for 14 offences of sexually assaulting underage girls including one as young as 9!!!!! Seems very very lenient to me!

Stuart Hall jailed for 15 months for sex assaults

Hall's barrister Crispin Aylett, in mitigation, told the court the former broadcaster had "all of 13" victims compared to Jimmy Savile's 1,300.
How do these people sleep at night when they come out with things like that? Does he think there is a league table or something? Prat!!!

She burst into tears, telling her parents what had happened after Hall took her home.

Her angry father went to find Hall but he was nowhere to be seen. The family decided not to report the matter
I find this very confusing
