Arnold Schwarzenegger may be a creep, but his sins are innocuous compared to the 'predatory sex offender' Jimmy Savile, an English disc jockey, television presenter and media personality who is now being vilified in the press for his criminal sexual activities with children over a 40-year period.
An investigation is now underway to discover how extensive his criminal actions were after a raft of women and a few men have come forward claiming that Jimmy either groped or raped them in his dressing room at the BBC, while others have claimed he assaulted them in the schools or hospitals where they were residing at the time. New allegations keep arising every day, the latest being that Jimmy may also have been a necrophiliac. He was in charge of taking the dead to the mortuary at a hospital where he volunteered for years. When he was once questioned about this, Jimmy said that everybody would accuse him of liking dead bodies. 'I'm not a necrophiliac!' said Jimmy. Likewise, he said he wasn't a pedophile.
In the early days of the scandal, some said it was unconscionable to accuse the dead of crimes for which they couldn't defend themselves, however too many witnesses have now come forward with stories that can't be refuted.
Gary Glitter, a 70's rock star, went to jail in Vietnam for raping children in his home. That was after being charged in England when the discovery of thousands of images of children on his computer lead to his arrest. He brought his computer in to be serviced and they were discovered on his hard drive. At that time, Jimmy Savile had defended Glitter's right to view child pornography. Glitter is now being questioned by police about these latest allegations.

More of Jimmy's sexual crimes are being uncovered everyday as the investigation broadens to include schools and hospitals. At Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Aylesbury, where he was free to come and go to prey on young patients, some as young as nine years old, some of the staff knew about his behavior as the children were told to pretend they were asleep when Jimmy visited.
Again, it's the most vulnerable who are victims of pedophiles like Jimmy. His legacy also shows how hundreds of people were involved in covering up his actions for the sake of protecting the reputation of the BBC and by the time this investigation is over, many people, including entertainers, will be discovered to have had a hand in Jimmy's pie. How else do you account for him carrying on for so long? Sir Jimmy. So vile.
