NoUseforaUsername Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Does anyone believe there is any merit to the stories linking Jimmy Savile to the Yorkshire Ripper killings? I read he was a suspect and detectives had a cast made of Savile's teeth to check against bite-marks left on the bodies of murder victims. Only problem was that after Savile was tipped off, he had his teeth capped in advance of the casting. IIRC a victim was found virtually right outside his flat too. Food for thought!

Food for thought! & i suppose the next thing you expect us to believe is that Bruce "Les Battersby" Jones discovered one of The Ripper's victims on his allotment? You must think we were all born yesterday!

Quote IIRC a victim was found virtually right outside his flat too. Savile was a super-fit marathon runner. He was more than capable of killing someone further away.

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted April 26, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 26, 2018 They could give him 10 years for each of the three counts he was found guilty of. They won't give him the maximum but even if he gets 5 years for each he still won't be out of prison until he is 95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted April 27, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 27, 2018 He could Chest, but if they go easy on the sentence and let him serve them concurrently there will be uproar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 The argument is what's the point of sentencing an old man to a sentence they'll die during, and I understand completely the anger about the length of sentence, but the key thing here is a very powerful man has been found guilty and I believe it'll give other people the courage to come forward. Â I don't think this will be the only trial he'll face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted April 27, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 27, 2018 Exactly - even with a soft sentence, it's a landmark moment insomuch as the victims have been believed and a powerful man has not been able to hide behind that power any longer. If justice isn't necessarily served the way everyone might like with Cosby, it at least sets the ball rolling for future court cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted April 27, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 27, 2018 They are going to want to set a strong legal precedent, and they are definitely not going to want a drawn out circus like the Oscar Pistorius saga.  Keith is right though, what's the point of an old man dying in prison, it doesn't help the victims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
