Good news if true. Feel horrible for the accused.

I think I have an idea who was accused, especially if it was fake because it would be an easy target to generate a story. I hope he isn’t too hurt by this

    To be honest, this is the whole reason I’ve been telling people that the story isn’t nearly what is being reported. If I was attacked by someone that I knew worked at Tesco, I wouldn’t write to Tesco to demand they investigate, I’d go to the police. So why involve the BBC? Why involve The Sun? If the “dossier” that The Sun has is so definitive, why are they not handing it over to the police like the BBC has with their evidence? Then, as the story developed: why did the step father change the complaint to the BBC after more than a month? And are we supposed to believe that this change just happened to occur less than 24 hours before The Sun’s front page headlines?

    The problem is that the allegations are playing second fiddle to a dangerous, damaging witch-hunt clearly being played out to cause maximum damage to a public service broadcaster for the benefit of not just any tabloid, but a nasty, vindictive tabloid backed by one of the most sinister and manipulative people in the world. Murdoch will never face anything like justice for the evil he’s caused, but I seriously hope that this whole shitshow massively blows up in his face.

      Wouldn’t they actually be able to publish his name if they really did have evidence? Due to public interest?
