Rolf Harris Charged On Multiple Child Sex Offences...."Shocker" - The Truth - 30-08-2013 00:57
So earlier today all round Entertainer Rolf Harris was charged with multiple counts of Child sex offenses.
While I know innocent until proven guilty is what society tells us it's hard not to see him in a totally different light.
Anyway if any other members of the forum have a opinion feel free to discuss.

He's been found really quite guilty:

Given the reporting of the trial, I can't pretend I'm surprised. But then I was surprised about Cyril Smith, and he was apparently a terror in Rochdale. So maybe I'm just gullible or something.

You're not alone mate. I think it's always the way if you grew up watching a certain person on TV or used to like them for a show they did or whatever you just think "nah surely he couldn't do something like that" It just makes me wonder about all these other so called "celebs" on TV nowadays, are some of them up to this kind of thing aswell?!
I didn't believe it at first when Rolf got accused but the more you read and heard it just became more and more obvious that he was guilty.

I don't see how.
In the current climate it would have been reported. Why would anyone keep quiet now?

Because you just never know that's why. Put it this way if a member of the Royal family was up to this sort of thing, bet anything they would be protected so it never got out to the public and the media

I expect the judge will hammer him when he faces sentencing on Friday, makes you wonder about the BBC. To think I used to grow up watching his programmes on kids TV, it makes you sick.
I hope they lock this beast away for the rest of his life, he is 84 and I expect him to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Thats now 3 weirdo's that was once entrusted being in close contact with children, Jimmy Savile, Stuart Hall and now Rolf Harris all working for the BBC. Makes you think.
Maybe ofcom should focus on this area of broadcasting from now on

"He was part of our childhoods for 60 years" summed it up for me.
Even if you could give him the benefit of the doubt over the contended issue of the sex he admitted he had had with a girl when she claimed she was only 15 but he says only happened after she was 18 there's nothing you can say in his defence to abusing a seven year old.
He will now die in disgrace, all those wonderful TV programmes will never be shown again and for what? He was a successful, wealthy celebrity who could have had his pick of any number of stunning women.
Funny old world.....
