Never liked Andrew. Always seemed to get himself into dodgy situations, suggesting (perhaps quite strongly) that he is, actually, dodgy.

Don't usually go for conspiracy theories, but there sure are a lot of big names getting mentioned in this Epstein case.

“He’s a lot of fun to be with... ... it is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.” Donald Trump on Epstein in 2002.

Also, the guy who got Epstein such a ridiculously lenient deal is now in Trump's cabinet.

It seems this guy isn't getting away with it though despite being rich and powerful. Of course if people didn't make allegedly false reports about the rich and powerful being involved in this vile and disgusting abuse then genuine claims would stand out more prominently. You'd almost think that some of the more outlandish claims were deliberately put out there for that very purpose.

<<Of course if people didn't make allegedly false reports about the rich and powerful being involved in this vile and disgusting abuse then genuine claims would stand out more prominently. >>


Absolutely hit nail on the head there, TOWK.

While those QAnon clowns were inventing the fantasy of Pizzagate which, let's not forget, was repeated on here ad infinitum by certain posters, the real crimes were occurring in plain sight in Manhatten, Florida and the Virgin Islands.

I wouldn't be too confident that Epstein will get what's coming to him. There is already talk of a plea bargain where, in exchange for a much-reduced five-year sentence (out in two years or so), Epstein provides the names of those who paid him to have sex with children.

But here's the thing: The really big names would never need to hand over money for such things; it would be seen as a gift from Epstein to be redeemed, one way or another, later.

And so, those prominent men we would most like to see exposed and taken to task, escape Scot-free... as per usual.

Absolutely.

The issue for the police is that they have to investigate all claims, and be seen to be investigating them.

However when there is clear and strong evidence to indicate allegations as false then the claimant(s) should face the consequences, then perhaps we might expect a reduction in malicious accusations.

It's hard enough for people who have been abused to come forward as they think they won't be believed.
Now you want them to run the risk of being jailed themselves if their abuser says it is a "malicious accusation "
Bring this in and expect to see an increase in kids being raped as paedophiles escape justice and are free to continue.

He's disputing the fact that many people will be even more afraid to come forward.

When, by doing so, they open themselves up to criminal charges, a risk which they wouldn't face if they didn't come forward.

That's not open to debate: it is an established fact.

It is if there is clear and credible evidence that their accusations are false and malicious.

Or maybe you think that Carl Beech (for example) should not be facing criminal charges ?

Yeah sorry, but I agree with VEE here. The whole system needs completely reworked for how cars involving rape etc happen as right now you can get instances like the Neymar case, where there is blatant proof the girl has tried to frame him, even going so far as to try and secretly record him from the bathroom, whilst goading him to strike her by hitting him herself. Not a chance in hell someone like that should be free to continue gallivanting around when if she hadn't made such an utter erse of her attempt, his entire career, reputation would be ruined and he'd likely see serious jail time.

On the other hand, its already nigh on impossible to prove without a doubt rape has occurred if not reported almost immediately.

Frankly there's no ideal system I can think of, but I really think first cases should remain totally anonymous until after court proceedings etc have finished, and if found guilty, then it can be reported upon and further victims brought forward. The system is currently far too open for abuse

No rape victim should have anything to feel uncomfortable if they're telling the truth as justice will - or at least should - be served.

You, on the other hand seem comfortable with the idea that perfectly innocent people should be outed as guilty and have their lives destroyed?

All victims and accused deserve the right to anonymity until the trials are over. Then the accused is either convicted or not. If not it should be down to the judge whether the victims name can be released. Because as we know even if not convicted it doesn't mean they are innocent.

Nothing quite like having my words twisted, but then I'd expect no less from you.

A very close friend of mine was subject to such an assault at a very young age so I am very familiar with the trauma caused. What I meant - and shouldn't really have to explain myself - is that they should not fear reporting the crime if the crime actually happened.

And I stand by my point that anybody purposely falsifying an accusation should be hammered by the full force of the law

Lots of rape victims don't come forward because they can't face more trauma - such as an intimate medical examination and the possibility of having to face the alleged perpetrator in court, as well as the harrowing experience of cross examination by the defence counsel.

Not for fear of being prosecuted for false witness or perjury.

As moviescot says, such cases should be striclty anonymous, for the benefit of both parties until a verdict is reached.

Not been following trial so just wondering.

The one thing I saw was that he had said he was terrified of water and they had photos of him in the sea.

The fact he has himself got conviction for this makes him more credible not less since many victims go on to offend. They end up with a distorted image of adult/child relationships due to what happened to them.

Carl Beech was the perpetrator, not a victim.

He had illegal images of children on his laptop, hidden by two layers of innocent looking app logos (as I understand his camouflague attempt) - and he had taken video footage of a boy urinating.

Think you misunderstood.
Victims of abuse often go on to be abusers.

Had a look at his "lies" to the police.
When first interviewed he said he didn't know the abusers identities.
He later revealed the names.
This would be pretty normal behaviour if he thought he wouldn't be taken seriously due to the high profile nature of the individual's he accused.

Have just read some background to the allegations.
He had been undergoing therapy for abuse for 2 years before the allegations were made to the police.

I have no doubt he has been a victim of abuse by someone.
I have no idea if those he accused were involved. He may well be guilty of fabricating that.
Be interesting to see how the trial goes.
So far I see no evidence presented that shows he is definitely lying.

I didn't twist your words then, did I? Because you repeated the pompous imposition that people shouldn't feel something when many definitely do.

And I stand by my statement that opening victims up to potential criminal charges as a result of reporting it if their coward rapist (or their lawyer) is manipulative enough, or they are confused enough, in court will put some people off reporting the crime.

It's also worth pointing out that wasting police time and perjury are already illegal, and will be charged when in the public interest, so do you want false rape allegations to be extra illegal? To have a law which specifically only applies to a person who reports a rape?

Often when people have experience trauma they basically relive it whenever they talk about it, unless the topic is approached extremely sensitivity by a trained trauma practitioner.

Defence lawyers and police officers are not usually trained trauma practitioners, so the experience of being questioned in an adversarial way can illicit quite bizarre responses from people. Their thinking becomes extremely confused and erratic and fight or flight kicks in. People who have experienced trauma should never have to be exposed to this sort of questioning, it serves no useful purpose of our goal is to find the truth.

I understand a lot of viewpoints here, but let's take Neymars accuser as an example. After all the attempts of trying to get evidence of Neymar abusing her all she has proved is how crazy she is, should this woman go unpunished? I'm sorry but that is utter nonsense if you're in her court.

"Defence lawyers and police officers are not usually trained trauma practitioners,"

The police have specially trained officers who deal with rape allegations operating within specalised dedicated units.

They work with appropriate external qualified personnel when assessing individual cases.

As for defence lawyers - they are quite at liberty to make the defendant take the stand and subject them to the same level and nature of intimate and personal questioning as the accuser.

Not a desirable scenario for either party, but that's the nature of our court system.

specially trained officers

But those are rare and rape is not.

There are still far too many stories of people being treated appallingly when they make an allegation of rape, or of people withdrawing the allegation because the process is too difficult.

The court ordeal is more than enough to put people off. Our court system rewards defence lawyers who make witnesses uncomfortable and distressed to the point where they doubt themselves and their evidence because they are being forced to relive, in intricate detail, a highly traumatic event, and they will probably be doing so for the second or third time as a result of choosing to report what happened to them.

I understand a lot of viewpoints here, but let's take Neymars accuser as an example. After all the attempts of trying to get evidence of Neymar abusing her all she has proved is how crazy she is, should this woman go unpunished? I'm sorry but that is utter nonsense if you're in her court.

Like I said, in most places it is already illegal to waste police time by making false reports and to lie in court. It's up to the authorities to determine whether or not to apply those laws in specific circumstances, but I see no good coming from making an extra law that specifically applies to people who report rape.

Exactly what I said yesterday at 18:53.

"But those are rare and rape is not"

All 43 police forces in England and Wales have specially trained officers - and 1/3 of them operate within specialised units.

There should be one in every authority of course.

Scotland has its own specialised staff.

They don't have enough officers to process the rape kits; do you honestly think that everyone who provided this seemingly overwhelming backlog of evidence has been seen, at every stage, by a specially trained officer? I would say that it is reasonable to assume that this is nowhere near being the case, sadly.

And we all know that having attended a training course doesn't really mean anything: that training also needs to be applied.

I see Epstein has got bail and is allowed out under house arrest. It's expected he will get some leniency for naming names. Whats the betting he will be found with half a dozen gunshots to the head having committed suicide

Why did the CICA pay out £22,000 as compensation to Beech without credible evidence to support his claim that he had been abused ?

That was the basis of the fraud case against him which has now been proved.

I see Epstein’s been denied bail.

His trial would be revelatory no doubt but I hope, for the sake of his alleged victims, that it doesn't come to that.

I suspect that others have other, more personal, reasons or fears about what could transpire in a trial which is why, I suspect, that the original plea-deal was so extraordinarily lenient - almost as if Epstein had a lot of leverage in the negotiations.

Different circumstances this time - he's got form and there is a spotlight on previous leniency. A cabinet minister in the US has resigned because of it.

Bear in mind that his plea deal actually barred prosecutors from charging "any co-conspirators" in relation to his crimes - so anybody who committed crimes, no matter how egregious, connected with Epstein's activities, was basically given a free pass because the US Attorney agreed not to charge ANY of them.

That's not normal, is it?

They can be quite generous with child sex offenders in an effort to avoid a traumatic trial, but this is apparently extremely lenient and then Acosta (the ex-US Attorney and Labor Secretary) lied about it then immediately resigned which, along with Acosta's failure to bring Federal charges (he was charged previously by the state of Florida), only makes it more suspicious in my opinion.

Certainly worth keeping an eye on anyway.

Looks like the BBC got it 100% right to question and challenge the "Nick" accusations promoted by Mark Watts and Mark Conrad.

Incidentally, the Mail is not a "go to" source - although they did discredit Chris Fay on separate claims.

I prefer the longer established reliable media sources of which there are several - Exaro is not one of them.

Anyway, this ship has sailed - Carl Beech has now been exposed as a major league liar, money grabbing opportunist and paedophile.

Jeffrey Epstein was found unconscious in a Manhattan jail cell with injuries to his neck, US media reported late on Wednesday, citing unidentified sources.

Epstein was found by guards sprawled on the floor of his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on Wednesday, it was reported.

The billionaire financier was taken to hospital, according to the New York Post, but it was unclear where he was taken or what his condition was. It was not clear how he suffered his injuries.

tbf child sex offenders are targets in prison anyway (from guards as well as other prisoners) and Epstein is even more of a target because of his profile, so this is potentially just one among thousands of similar incidents of prison violence.

Prisons are violent enough if you aren't the most high profile child abuser in the world.

Beech was coached by Conrad in the first instance, then presented to the media by Watts as the star whistleblower.

If they had been honest and advised Beech that his "evidence" was unsound then it's questionable if he would have persisted with his allegations.

Watson has been despicable - he was driven by political motivation.

There is a well established protocol for MPs in these situations - they should deal with such matters unless the individual is a constituent, which Beech was not.

He meddled where he should not have, then hid behind the shield of Parliamentary privilege to make accusations, then refused to apologise when they were found to be false.

To think that creature is potentially a heartbeat away from being a future Prime Minister - God forbid.

He had some indecent images of children on his PC - that still seems like a very heavy sentence.

You should get 18 years for killing someone, not for child porn and being a fantasist.

For instance, Ian Hughes, was found guilty in 2014 of possessing 8200 indecent images of children, including 800 of the “worst kind,” and he was sentenced to a 12-month custodial sentence.

He was a vicar though.

Do you think Ted Heath would have got 18 years if he had, in fact, physically and sexually abused young boys in the stste's care?

Cyril Smith didn't, despite it being an open secret.

Same with Jimmy Saville,

Neither of whom were ever found guilty in a court of law by the way, because they were protected from having to defend their heinous crimes.

If I were erring on the side of caution, I'd say that the balance should be in favour of vigorous investigation of all accusations with false ones like this, and the "Satanic Abuse" panic in the 80s and 90s acting to inform future investigations.

II'd much rather embarrass Ted Heath and Cliff Richard than let someone like Jimmy Saville roam around thinking he's allowed to do whatever he likes to whoever they like.

Smith and Saville were dead when it became apparent what they had done. Other people who were dead were also the victims of Beech. They spent their last days with the shadow of these heinous crimes hanging over them, crimes that they knew they did not commit but that others were ready to condemn them over. Other people who were dead were also the loved ones of those falsely accused. They died possibly with a niggle of doubt in their minds over loved ones because of the filthy lies this man spread. You see its not just embarrassing to be the victim of false accusations like this, it's life destroying. Embarrassing is walking along a busy with your fly undone. Being wrongly accused of being a child murdering peadophile must be horrendous. Beech will spend years in prison but the damage is done for those who had no chance to defend themselves.

Nope, they were dead before anyone listened to the victims who did come forward - it's not like either was hiding it.

They were dead so they couldn't use their wealth and power to protect themselves from the fact that it was openly acknowledged in certain circles (Saville in particular hid in plain sight and his predilections were even mentioned to Mrs T before she knighted him) what they were up to.

They were both, however, considered "too big to fail" and protected.

I stand by my assertion that 18 years is a gigantic sentence for what he was convicted of and that it's inflated because of who he accused.

He'd have got 10 at max if he'd accused Bob down the road, and five if he'd been a Vicar rather than an extremely vulnerable man who probably has learning difficulties and social problems.

We still have some of the same attitudes, in some of our institutions, which can lead to or allow abuse.

The recent Rotherham case was a big one. Folk were focussed on the fact that the abusers were from Muslim backgrounds but there was no mention made of how they got away with it for so long and in plain sight.

Basically, the local authorities viewed the girls who were being abused as "troublesome attention seekers" and "dirty little sl*gs" and completely ignoring the abuse.

There are thought to be over 100 police officers involved and the IPCC has already identified 70 officers who were implicated in worngdoing by the findings of the Jay Report into Child Sexual Exploitation in Rotherham..

The barrier for the authorities wasn't the race or religion of the perpetrators so much as it was the socio-economic position of the victims. They came from difficult backgrounds with traumatic lives filled with the most horrific abuse who may have, as a result, engaged in antisocial behaviour.

Their trauma and the behaviour they displayed as a result meant that the authorities didn't see them as reliable witnesses.

So they were viewed as the problem and their abusers were free to get on with it right in front of everybody.

It's exactly the same pattern as Savile and Smith.

And that's why it's better to take such accusations seriously imo.

What happened to Cliff Richard was awful, but it's nothing compared to what happened to those girls.

But there are definitely conspiracies around child sex rings (that's why they are "rings")- they have been being exposed at the rate of one or two a year for decades now with people at all levels of society involved.

Margaret Thatcher was fully aware of Savile's predilections but still went out of her way to get him a knighthood.

Why would she do that? What possible reason would she have to press for a knighthood for a man who she knew to be a paedophile and who she had been advised was most likely a necrophile?

That she received repeated warnings from Civil Servants re Savile is a matter of public record.

Which means that "the establishment" knew full well what he was up to.

So until this conspiracy stops being so insidious and pervasive I think that I, personally, will stick with this one. It is a proven conspiracy fact, with mountains of evidence and patterns of behaviour that need to stop because thousands of children are being irreparably hurt by it, and it is happening practically in the open.

I'm discussing the authorities' responses to allegations of organised abuse of children, not just the Savile case (although it is the most prominent) and attempts to cover it up.

There's the various churches.
Children's homes all over the UK.
Cases such as Rotherham.
Cyril Smith.
and far too many more.

These are all cases where ongoing abuse was allowed to continue because the perpetrators were allowed to undermine the testimony of traumatised and emotionally vulnerable young people and continue raping children, in plain sight of the authorities. i.e. conspiracies.

If the price to be paid for a robust and thorough approach to investigating allegations is that more people are questioned about stuff that didn't happen then fair enough.

I'm normally the first the rattle on about people's privacy and right to exist without the authorities snooping on their private lives, butt he power dynamic at play in cases of child abuse mean that it is often reasonable to peer a little closer in my opinion.

Put it this way, if it becomes reasonably common to be investigated, and exonerated, then the stigma will soon disappear and we can move on as a society safe in the knowledge that those with whom we entrust our kids are not abusing that trust.

How do the "usual suspects" deny all knowledge when they are dead ?

The accusations against Heath, Janner and Brittan. all now deceased, have been proven false.

Likewise the allegations against the living such as Lord Bramall and others.

Beech's trial concluded that there was no organised Westminster paedophile ring, similarly the stories of child abuse, torture and murder at Dolphin Square don't stand scrutiny.

It does seem strange that a high profile prisoner with a previous, recent, suicide attempt was given the opportunity to try again. And a day after the Price Andrew revalation

It's almost as if somebody was turning a blind eye.

They probably put him in a cell with knotted sheets hanging from the ceiling then acted shocked when they came back a week later to find him dead.

I joke, but in all seriousness it is an absolute disgrace that this man wasn't on 24/7 suicide watch.

What exactly does the BBC have to do with what is going down in the US?

Incidentally it was the BBC who gave Mark Watts (and Conrad) or Exaro the opportunity on air to use their star whistlerblower to expose the establishment paedophile ring in Westminster and bring down the government(Watt’s prediction) of the day.

It’s on the BBC website and You Tube I think.

What transpired was somewhat different - “Panorama” rubbished “Nick’s” fairytale about his school pal being murdered etc. he turned out to be a paedophile (how ironical), Exaro closed down, and Watts was thoroughly discredited.

Of course, why let the facts contradict the guff and drivel some peddle around here ?

Simple question, do you think Epstein actually committed suicide and that there were no powerful men enjoying the company of children via him?

At first glance it certainly seems suspicious. However if you look at it objectively it isn't really. The suicide rates in prison is incredibly high. This guy was facing spending the rest of his natural life in a U.S penitentiary. Looking over his shoulder every minute waiting for the next beating or worse to come his way. After a lifetime of luxury I could imagine his new surroundings would have been quite a shock to the system.
I mean why would these shadowy powerful elites wait until now to do it. Why wait until it becomes international headline news and prompts American senators and mayor's to demand further investigations. Why not do it years ago when the investigations first began? Why not silence the witness who made the allegations?
By the way I'm not defending Epstein. He admitted his guilt and was a wretched individual I'm just not ready to follow the established thinking that his suicide was a murder.
Oh and Rasta please don't refer to me as one of the 'enablers' again.

I don't think it was murder by action but the authorities had a responsibility and a duty of care to ensure that this exact thing didn't happen.

It just takes an "accidentally" missed welfare check and next time they're checking a corpse.

Epstein was in the special housing unit so his environment and who/what he had access to would have been even more micromanaged than in general population. He had a recent suicide attempt so he should have been on 24/7 suicide watch, so something is fishy here. This isn't an average Joe, this is the most high profile prisoner in the world right now. Who has already made a suicide attempt.

Well fishy.

Rasta is right on this one. No way this was suicide or natural causes. The bookies wouldnt take odds on this it was so obviously going to happen. The damage he could cause outweighed the fact it was blatantly obvious. The only thing we don't know is who made the move. He was uber high profile and even if they didnt have him on 24/7 suicide watch he should have been on 24/7 protection. There should have been at least 2 guards on him 24/7.
Absolutely no doubt about this one unless your head is in the sand.
They wouldnt kill him earlier because he had protection measures in place. Stuff that could be found. He was blackmailing them all. He was starting to talk though so caution was thrown to the wind.
The evidence may still surface...just depends who gets it first and how good they are at avoiding the eyes of tje establishment before leaking them. Mwuhuhuhuhuhu!

And he is not able to categorically prove how he died and neither can Parrot. Everyone is entitled to believe what they wish but unless you were there you cannot know how he died. It's all speculation from people 3,000 plus miles from the incident.

That's the basis of the problem that the real victims have: where folk are naturally inclined to compare the obvious liars with people who are essentially unstable because they are the victims of systematic abuse and gaslighting over years or decades.

If we catch it early enough we call it grooming, but if it gets past that, to "groomed" then it gets more difficult to deal with.

Especially if it occurs where children have little "loving supervision", such as when they are in state care, foster care or when their parents completely lack the skills to properly care for them, let alone actually cherish and nurture them.

Children in that situation often have to "hustle" to literally survive (even in this country) and will be less socially or ethically pressured to stick to the law when they look to bring money into the "household" (which could be an actual household or a more ad-hoc group living in different houses).

It's not a new thing that desperation (eg extreme poverty) and lack of investment will make people less inclined to follow the law or authority. Often the opposite due to past bad experience - they shun and lash out against authority.

So now we have a perfect storm for abuse: vulnerable, desperate children for whom "Stranger Danger" is more of a challenge than a warning, combined with authorities who are institutionally geared to see them as a problem rather than a victim.

We, as a society, are responsible for insisting on creating the environment where this continues decades after we became starkly aware of it.

Fortunately I've never known someone to commit these crimes (hopefully) however a mate of mines, best man at his wedding was later done for being a paedophile, my mate was naturally disgusted, but he himself isn't one.

You have to look into what Epstein is and does, he's a leverage collecter, Mandelson was pretty keen to stay in touch, my point is not necessarily that he is a nonce, but would have been aware of Epstein's tastes and trades.

Do you think Epstein was getting Spacey little girls?
Edit, given your admitted and we'll illustrated "skim reading" I'll just assume this is another subject you've skimmed over.
Epstein was a collector of leverage, for whom is hazy right enough but if you think it was just the straight guys he catered for try reading the list instead of skimming through it.

Going too far saying Moviescott defended Epstein Rasta. He never did. He seems more concerned with simply sticking to proven facts.
I agree with you that his death was organised but who knows who by. So many candidates. I believe it goes to the top though and Barr's visit confirms that for me.
Fact is though Moviescott is right too. Despite my convictions I don't have enough evidence to conclude guilty if I was in a jury and we need to hold these standards high to protect everyone.

Interesting Rasta. So just how many paedophiles do you actually know? How do you know so much about how they operate?

Do you think everyone who came into contact with Epstein knew what he was?

Thank you for your response Rasta. No intention on my part to cause any offence.

So you have no direct experience. I thought I had led a pretty closeted life but I can recount my experience of having known 3 paedophiles. Two of whom I would have called friends and another who was my manager at my work.

Maybe I will give some details when I can put them into some order.

Rasta has a track record of pathetic wiseguy efforts at badmouthing others who question some of his claims, he's presumably predisposed to such personalt insults.

The "enabler" nonsense is particulary derisory and laughable.

Main one Jonathon Quick, convicted and jailed, only when nearly dead though, see how that works?
His pal Porteous, although his tastes were violence toward young boys.
Various older pupils involved, two suicides I know of, witnessed Quick on many occasion being inappropriate, he would touch boys in front of the class whilst spanking them over his knee.
His previous school erased him from their records I believe.

Forgive my rudeness but, to me, that seems like a really facile thing to say.

For instance, what do you mean by "come to light"? To whom did it come to light? Presumably you aren't suggesting that nobody with power to act knew? What were the systemic and/or social failures that prevented it "coming to light" sooner? For example, was it the case that the behaviour had become normalised thorough systematic grooming with the kids essentially being brainwashed into thinking that the behaviour was normal and innocent.

Basically, this isn't simple and it extends beyond the individuals who actually commit the acts. Rasta used the word "enabler" earlier and whilst I don't necessarily agree with his choices of target, it's important to remember that there are enablers out there who, for whatever reason*, will "turn a blind eye" or knowingly keep avenues of abuse open.

*politics, blackmail, loyalty, fear, PR etc

Quick's crimes were hidden by Dollar....an example...I was beaten by one of his colleagues whilst in p5 for trying to bring attention to his liking for touching boys.
Hence his crimes coming out later.

Going by contemporary media reports, the authotities only became aware after 2002 when the victim tragically took his life.

The abuse apparently took place several years earlier.

Hence the delay in the case coming before the Sheriff.

Why it didn't come to public attention sooner (as Rasta alludes to) is a matter for Dollar Academy to answer in the first instance.

Indeed it is, good luck getting an answer, they had to be aware if what was going on as there was even an occasion another teacher lost the place with Quick about "touching" boys and some of the physical/violent abuse doled out on his behalf was truly frightening at that age.
Also, you thinkpupils didn't tell their parents? There were some who did, only for their parents to be told their child was a lying troublemaker. Who do you think the parents believed? A child getting it tight from numerous teachers at a prestigious school or the child?
I can tell you the answer.
I was lucky in that I got the violence, frankly how some other boys I knew have survived to adulthood is beyond me. I would be very surprised if they did so without issues.
So that's what happens to kids abused at a private school, can you imagine children/victim's trying to take billionaires or powerful establishment figures?

I apologise for the "enablers" comment I made, I guess my experience has made me somewhat absolutist on the subject, it was however an unfair thing for me to spit out.

I know how effed up some of the witnesses at Quick's trial were at having to revisit that time.
You would think the truth is all that matters but it isn't, try and take on a remotely powerful paedophile when money and image are involved and you see the nature of the beast.
I can only imagine a child/victim trying to take on an Epstein or Windsor/Sax Gotha and what they would face.

I disagree.

I think that it is a matter for us all, as a society, to demand answers and to pay more attention so that it gets picked up sooner in future.

Or that it is impossible for people in positions of authority to ignore warning signs or disclosures.

It is also beholden on us, as a society, to ensure that those who have close relationships with vulnerable children are properly monitored.

I am a PVG (Protection of Vulnerable Groups) signatory at my work, processing about 60-odd PVGs a year and I'm honestly not overly confident in the system as it stands (it's not necessarily unfit for purpose, but it has some cracks in it's identity checking systems that could be exploited by a determined person), suggesting that we haven't learned from experience.

So we definitely have work to do and it is unreasonable to point the finger at each institution rt individual as if they exist in a vacuum; we have systems and checks and if they fail then that's on us.

The Disclosure Scotland process is far from perfect, however it is a quantam leap forward from what existed (or rather didn't exist) in the past.

My son and heir was in one of Thomas Hamilton's youth groups, which of course we would never have allowed had we known.

Hindsight of course is perfect 20-20 vision.

The response to the Hamilton case at the time was great and the Disclosure system that came out of it was great for the time - well ahead of the curve compared with other systems - but there have been 1 or 2% of the applications I've made for people have allowed subtle mistakes to get through (which I only picked up after the certificate was issued) - mostly in cases where the applicant has either been confused by a question or when the DS handwriting recognition system makes a transcription error and the misspelled surname or subtly off DoB or address isn't spotted and a certificate is issued.

DS are also supposed to record any claims or suspicions made against people, even if they are unproven, in order to spot patterns across multiple organisations, but all too often an employer will simply encourage a staff member out the door or hope they go though natural wastage when they have suspicions but no evidence. However, it's obviously in DS's interests to know when folk have a number of these incidents (maybe a subtle, less sexual touching or inappropriate but not overly sexual comments for example) across multiple jobs because perhaps some of those people too are not the best folk to be working with kids or vulnerable adults; we don't need beyond reasonable doubt here - balance of probability the way to go in these cases and it's what DS use. They just need ALL incidents, however minor on the surface, reported in order to best do that.

Also, iirc more than a few people reported Hamilton's predilections (taking pictures of half naked boys) to police, but no action was taken - again, there has been a missed lesson, to catch criminals you have to follow up reports - even if it is a bit awkward for somebody who might be innocent, or might not. If they are innocent then there is some problems for an unlucky person and that's terrible, but if they aren't then we have dead or permanently damaged children.

My mate was also in one of his groups at about 5 years old. He made them partake in games, like football, or crab football etc in their underwear.

My mate told his mum and dad he didn't want to go back because he made him feel really uncomfortable, although being 5, he couldn't really articulate it.

Thomas Hamilton then came round his house to try and persuade him to come back, but on seeing how my mate reacted to him in their own home, they informed him he wouldn't be back.

He was lucky in that he didn't actually do anything to him but he firmly believes that if his mum and dad hadn't picked up on his reaction there is more than a strong chance he would have done. As such they couldn't really report him or anything as he hadn't actually done anything.

Predators are very clever manipulators who manipulate not only their victims but people who their victim might turn to. I think it's too simplistic to say 'people should've listened' but I do take the point that sometimes, a lot of the time, those who may be in the spotlight if allegations are made against someone they have entrusted or employed, will sometimes consciously ignore it for self preservation or preservation of any number of a given status quo.

Apparently the police were unable to find sufficient evidence to proceed following that incident.

Hamilton was "streetwise" when it came to dealing with the authorities, little or nothing could be pinned on him.

"My mate was also in one of his groups at about 5 years old. He made them partake in games, like football, or crab football etc in their underwear."

It wasn't uncommon in times past for one of the two team in sports sessions to remove their t-shirt etc. and play as "skins" against "tops" - I mind doing it many times in school and we never thought anything sinister of it, simply a convenient way for the teacher to keep the activity moving along.

"That's a horribly close brush, did you ever meet and him did he ever seem like the person who he'd turn out to be?"

Never met him - he had use of Clack Council schools premises in the evening for his clubs so we all assumed all was kosher.

Discovered later that the council were reluctant to let him use their facilities but he was able to challenge them because they were unable to justify the grounds for objections with solid evidence etc.

Son and heir, to my recollection, never voiced any negative vibes during his relatively short time in that club.

Hamilton sent home letters fairly regularly when he wanted written permission for some purpose. These were on headed stationey, with Stirling Association of Boys Clubs at the top - only afterwards did it become clear that he'd made up the group name, and was self appointed as secretary. There was no committee of parents or adult leaders.

I'm aware of that, I did it at PE. It's wasn't common to make both teams strip down to bare chest and underpants though. That's clearly not normal behaviour, no matter when it happened.

He was ultra strict even beyond anything i had encountered at school or elsewhere at the time, this would have been 1993 so i'd have been about Primary 5 or there abouts at the time.

Ran it like more of a boot camp than a boys club, there was always a huge emphasis on PT and the warmups etc were harder than anything i'd experienced before.

He also detested anyone who was overweight and would draw attention to them in front of the rest of the group on a weekly basis. Not to trivialise it but if you've ever seen Full Metal Jacket think back to the scenes with Hartmann and Private Pyle it was that kind of scenario, even with ten year old laddies.

Club itself was an hour a week, pretty much a 50/50 split of gymnastics style warmups with pummell horse, vault that sort of with the second half being small sided games of football. As i said it was all ultra strict; big emphasis on all the boys being responsible for helping setup then dismantle the equipment and there was zero chat or larking about allowed.

Very much a control freak and as i said ran it like a boot camp. Having said that my primary school head teacher at the time was a PE teacher in his earlier days and i was in the school basketball team which he took and it was a similar 'old school' approach there, ableit he was a 6ft 4" adonis who commanded respect where as Hamilton was a bit of a weasel in comparison.

Never had to play stripped down to underwear in my experience although there were never any bibs so it always skins v tops.

The only genuinely odd thing looking back was that during games he would film every single session week in week out. Wasn't your average Joe's camcorder either, was one of th huge things you'd expecta TV camerman to be using all setup on a huge tripod tucked away into the wee fire escape dookit at the half way line. He claimed he had contacts and knew scouts at all the big teams and they would be passed tapes of the best players. I suppose at that age you were excited by that stuff and never even thought to question it, looking back now though......

Nothing untoward ever happened to me or any of the boys in the class. I think the club just ran it's course after less than a year, folk got fed up with him and bored of the same format week in week out and it ended up folding as numberd dwindled.

I may be wrong but i think that was the general pattern of his 'clubs' over the years. I don't think he was ever ran out of town or shut down, they just started off strong then people couldn't be bothered with his disciplinarian approach and eventually chucked it - possibly had a few parents challenging him over his methods and thus stopping their lads from reattending . He would then move onto the next town/village and repeat cycle etc.....he was in Alloa and Stenny by then so i guess Stirling, Bridge of Allan, Dunblane and surrounding areas had all been done and dusted by this point.

Obviously now adays between the internet and social media he would have been flagged up and black balled years ago and would never have been able to do that in terms of moving onto the next town or village.

Some incredibly insightful posts there gents, cheers for writing them out, was unaware until a bit of googling about his past with boys clubs, for some reason I thought he was the janitor and he'd went mental, despite watching the Dunblane documentary on TV a few years back which was also outstanding.

They haven't minced their words.
The idea that Andrew knew nothing about Epstein and didn't participate is laughable.
That lass sounds pretty sure of herself.

Where did the kids go that flew to Epstein's island but never left?

"TH was also good friends for whatever reason (suspicious) with Cheif Constable of Central Police through the club era and who was ultimately responsible for TH having the licence for his guns, as it had been turned been down and he overruled. This was due to rumours that had got back to authorities."

It was Depute Chief Constable Douglas McMurdo who overruled the recommendation, made in 1991, by Detective Sergeant Paul Hughes that Hamilton's firearms licence renewal be rejected.

I've never heard anybody mention that Hamilton was friends with Chief Constable Willie Wilson - would be interested to know the source of that.

RM - I doubt if Hamilton's renewal application would have come near the CC, the DCC would have been the highest rank to deal with it.

Apparently he consulted other senior officers, however the concensus of opinion seems to have been that there were no substantive grounds to refuse the application.

Hamilton was litigious and would have taken legal action up to a Sheriff to have it reinstated.

The police had tried to bring charges against him a few times, each dismissed by the Procurator Fiscal in Stirling due to insufficient evidence - the PCs opinion.

If only they had listened to Det. Sgt. Hughes.

"My SGC and FAC are both signed by the Chief Constable and it states can only be signed by the CC.

Not sure if that was the procedure used by Central Scotland Constabulary (or any other force) prior to 1996 or not - it appears not as the recommendation not to renew Hamilton's application failed at a rank below CC.

"I know they also check each application/renewal with the advice and recommendations taken from the firearms department reviewed."

That was my experience when successfully applying for my shotgun licence - a few years after Dunblane.

Unless I'm totally mistaken that was also the procedure previously followed.

Hamilton's renewal was not rejected because McMurdo felt it would be successfully challenged before the local Sheriff.

Tragically they did not put that to the test.

Had they done so, it might have been the Sheriff who would have had to bear the responsibility for what transpired, not CSP.

My late wife had a summer job as a grouse beater at Balmoral when she was a medical student at St Andrews Uni back in the mid-1970s. She interacted with the royal family over two consecutive summers and often said afterwards that Andrew was especially difficult to deal with. He was, even in his teens, a very childish and spoilt individual.

Just watched the interview this morning and well...what a massive own goal that was, makes him look more guilty than ever.

Not even taking into account what he said, his facial impressions when the woman was repeating what he was being accused of, looked so put on and forced as if to stress how absurd they were.

The fact he can’t then remember the woman at all, or dancing in a nightclub or the photo, yet can remember he was at Pizza Express in Woking...

Load of nonsense, guilty he definitely is, how far it went and whether everything said is true still up for debate.

It would have been in Andrews best interests to have just shut up shop.

Yes, that would be as an offence under older existing laws in 2001, but not under then legislation as sex trafficing was not a criminal offence here until 2003.

The Duke of York says he is stepping back from royal duties because the Jeffrey Epstein scandal has become a "major disruption" to the Royal Family.

Prince Andrew said he had asked the Queen for permission to withdraw for the "foreseeable future".
He said he deeply sympathised with sex offender Epstein's victims and everyone who "wants some form of closure".

Meanwhile he is being deserted in droves :-

Pharmaceuticals company AstraZeneca and Hult International Business School, are reviewing their partnerships with Pitch@Palace

Outward Bound, the charity the Duke of Edinburgh was patron of for 65 years, has called a board meeting to discuss the prince's patronage

London Metropolitan University, said it will consider the prince's role as its patron, saying it "opposes all forms of discrimination, abuse and human trafficking"
University of Huddersfield students are calling for the prince to be sacked as their chancellor

Four Australian universities listed as partners of Pitch@Palace Australia - Bond University, Murdoch University, the University of Wollongong and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology - said they had either ended their relationship with the initiative or would not be continuing it

tbf Rasta this sort of stuff is allowed to continue at all levels of society - not just the top. The perpetrators in Rotherham weren't exactly establishment figures.

The problem, to my mind, isn't the ignoring of paedophilia to protect people - it's the ignoring of paedophilia because the victims aren't listened to when they report it.

"vee .... honest answer....do you honestly believe these people are innocent or are you going with innocent until proven guilty ...... which I can understand but the evidence of ever proving them guilty has gone, lost, misplaced, shredded ah la Theresa Brasier"

Not one, but two exhaustive investigations, involving large numbers of detectives conducted by the Met failed to find an iota of proof to support allegtions made against those named.

The evidence never existed.

"it's the ignoring of paedophilia because the victims aren't listened to when they report it."

Exactly, 100% correct.

South Yorkshire police and the local council etc.

In that case there was a elephant in the room which the authorities balked at addressing - the alleged perpetrators were Asians.

The report was clear that the failings were around a failure to protect especially vulnerable children rather than a failure to address a race or religion issue.

I don't, for example, think that priests were allowed to get away with it because they were catholic or Irish. It was a systemic failure - again based on the notion that some, particularly vulnerable, people are not considered to be reliable witnesses.

Our entire system - from top to bottom - is not set up to deal with this and that's what needs to change, not tinkering but radical changes to the way we deal with each and every report. From how we speak to the people making the report to how, and when, we investigate further.

Again very relevant Wotsit The Rotherham paedophiles were mainly Pakistanis but what was never heard in court was the involvement of certain police officers who took part in the said paedophilia

One 12 year old who was plied with alcohol and then taken advantage of was taken into custody not because she had been abused but because she was an under age drunk

Another smarter brave girl took semen traces on her underwear to the police to help trace the dna of her abusers but guess what the police lost the evidence

And our own Sajid Javid said and its on record there could be some cultural reasons from the communities that these men came from that could lead to this kind of behaviour."

Heaven help us

The lie that was most obvious was "that photo was taken upstairs in the house and I've never been upstairs there."
My immediate thought was how does he know where it was taken if he hasn't been there to see what it looks like.

I'm starting to wonder if he's been set up with the interview.

Not that he's innocent, but the skilled PR team he has access to could surely have given him better lies to tell? Maybe they realised it was all going to come out anyway (or already has) so they just cut him loose.

Its damage limitation from here on in now There is a lot more to come from this and I'm not sure he has done himself any favours by agreeing to the interview I wonder if Epstein had not been murdered if the outcome would have been better or worse for HRH

I couldn't quite believe the noise he made at the mention of his death, or the look on his face earlier when it was discussed. I look forward to seeing some professionals analyse the video. I do think though, that no matter what he has done, it'll all eventually be swept under the carpet. Not a chance he will get in any bother

Not a chance he'll get into bother....heart attack or a staged heartbreaking accident involving heroic intent can't be ruled out though...he'll know by now his maw's got a ruthless streak...

His alibi that he was at a Pizza Express left a very easy question unmasked.
He said it was for a Birthday Party.
I would have asked whose birthday it was.

His duties involve swanning round various corrupt regimes setting up all manner of deals. He has friends in some very low places. Paedophiles, Arms Traders, royalty, tyrants. It would be good to see a thorough investigation of his finances, but that won't ever happen unfortunately.
Regarding his visit to Woking, he really just has to contact whoever organised the birthday party to confirm, and I sure they will remember if he was there or not. There was some really good opportunities to grill him on his answers, it would have been good to see someone like Jeremy Paxman on this interview

Indeed. His mother has effectively just publicly sacked him since he was threatening the entire enterprise. His usefulness is now completely at an end, but of more concern to the institution is the damage that might be inflicted in the future. I envisage a health problem- the ground for this has already been laid with the Falklands ‘trauma’- which requires him to live out his days in the warmer climes of the south of France. Based on the unfortunate events which befell his sister-in-law and later Yasser Arafat, it might be better to avoid Paris.

Roberts Lassie

My guess is Buckingham Palace



Ghislaine Maxwell, the late Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged procurer-in-chief, still has links to a mews house she once owned in one of those quietly expensive streets in Belgravia.
It’s an enviable property, small but handily located and probably worth about £1.5 million. The oligarchs’ canteen, Pétrus, is close by and, should you need to pop out for a pint of milk, Harrods Food Hall is just a short stroll away.

When I rang the bell there was, alas, no answer. The house seemed to be locked up, the paintwork bleached by the heat of the summer sun. Still, it looked as though someone had been watering the window-boxes. While hiding in plain sight is often recommended for those on the run, it’s unlikely to have been Maxwell – a woman much wanted by the FBI, the world’s press and a posse of aggrieved young women; a woman who stands accused of grooming underage girls on behalf of Epstein and, in some cases, participating in the abuse he perpetrated.


But where is she? Not, it turns out, at the Massachusetts beach house fingered as a bolthole by MailOnline. Nor at the South of France mansion whose doorbell American reporters pressed to no avail. And not, I feel sure, at the Oxford apartment allegedly owned by Maxwell’s old friend, Tania Rotherwick, founder of the Wilderness festival, the first iteration of which Maxwell attended with a man – perhaps Epstein – who, Tatler was told, ‘picked up the tab.’


And though Maxwell is still referred to as a ‘socialite’, she’s unlikely to be doing much in the way of socialising. She has not been charged with any offence and has denied all allegations – but her involvement with Epstein has turned her from social butterfly to social pariah.
