Lord Bramall said it right, rather than having the CPS say 'insufficient evidence' which implies you were not quite guilty enough, they should actually say 'unsubstantiated claims' which at least doesn't make it sound like he got off lucky.

I don't think that anyones name should be put up prior to a trial, and I really don't see the point of holding inquests and wasting money looking into things that have happened, when the accused is dead. We can't bring them back and punish them, or even prove conclusively one way or the other as the dead one can't make a defence.

One possibility to help encourage people to make claims against someone while they are still living, would be to have a statute of limitations. 30 years say? that's quite a long time.

We're not in the dark 70's now, peope are a lot more informed and able to speak up, at least then we'd get people prosecuted while they were still alive, or at least not OAP's
