It happened within minutes apparently, almost as if someone had prepared the paperwork beforehand. This sounds like a vendetta - perfectly understandable, but not quite the way justice should work.

His age ought be irrelevant. He did the crime, he now does the time. I reckon he'll be out in about 3 years though, if not before due to his 'health'!

What really irks me though, is he won't face further charges for the allegations of downloading kiddie porn.

5 Years and 9 Months. It would have been more but for his age and health. This is of course not inclusive of the further cases being lined up. Taking a boat to court is to me not only bazaar but it is a blatant avoidance of facing the music and as the Judge noted he'd shown no remorse , to my mind it demonstrates it.

That's why it was and will continue to be suppressed. Bottom line here, we (the plebs) are the playthings of the rich and powerful! - And we must never forget our place!

The problem is that kiddie fiddling goes right to the heart of the establishment. We're not only talking politicians, but possibly even Royalty. I think any real convictions/prosecutions/interest is very unlikely. The guilty will be protected because of their contacts/associations. Unfortunately, the lower classes are nothing more than playthings for the rich and connected.

I don't hold out much hope of many politicians being prosecuted - Cyril Smith's case was suppressed, and that Lib Dem peer (can't remember his name) with wondering hands basically got away with it.

I see there's another 12 cases being lined up against him.

I always felt there was something creepy about him. I admired his art and ability to paint with such ease but....

Rolf Harris to be Put Away
I used to look up to Rolf when I was a kid; I'm so disappointed in him that he abused his position.
