'It doesn't add up': Jimmy Savile's victims question report by West Yorkshire Police

Quote:
A lawyer for the victims of Jimmy Savile has said a police report concluding there is no evidence he was protected by police officers 'doesn't add up'.

The West Yorkshire Police (WYP) report published today found "no evidence" Jimmy Savile was protected from arrest or prosecution by his relationship with the force.

The report did, however, find that there was "over-reliance on personal friendships" between Savile and some officers. It also says that "mistakes were made" in the way police handled information about the entertainer.


I would suspect that the police are trying to avoid the potential for damages being claimed against them.

Re Hillsborough. Exactly what I was thinking.

I never believed the Hillsborough excuse.

The report comes over as a complete whitewash - well what did we really expect when they were investigating themselves :roll:

And when they get some "Independant" investigation that also seems to find no fault, no wonder trust in public bodies is low.
