I don't suppose the prospect of legal action was very appealing.

Twelve former residents of children's homes say they were abused by Lord Janner, a BBC investigation has found, as criminal proceedings end.

The peer, who died before a court could examine claims of child abuse against him, regularly visited homes in Leicester in the 1970s and 1980s.

An ex-police officer says he reported suspicions about Lord Janner, a decade before police began a full inquiry.

Lord Janner, who had dementia and died aged 87 in December, had denied abuse.

A "trial of the facts", due to take place in April, has now been shelved by prosecutors.

A jury would have been asked to decide - without reaching a decision about whether he was guilty - if 22 alleged incidents of abuse from the 1960s to the 1980s had taken place.

It's a great pity all this has taken so long and that he was able to avoid proper legal scrutiny. I dare say there are quite a few powerful people who'll be breathing a sigh of relief for one reason or another and the longer this drags on the more of them will avoid their day in court. Maybe that's the "establishment's" desired outcome...

No evidence to be heard from those claiming abuse. No chance of compensation from his estate then?

Obviously he is a different type of alleged paedo to J. Saville.

[nashville]

This is a disgrace that it was not looked into years ago. These children must have been put through terrible behaviour by these horrible men

[Osem]

There is the distinct whiff of a very high profile cover up going on.

Three chances were missed to prosecute late peer Lord Janner over sex abuse claims, UK independent inquiry finds

How very convenient.

I have extremely strong opionons on this. The people that l feel so sorry for is the victims. These are the forgotten ones.

You have sickos in high places, who prey on vulnerable kids and adults. I would seriously hang em'.
Someone asked me the other day about it. As for some unknown reason, 'little bits' of what happened to me, came out. He asked me cant you forgive that person - my answer was NO.

I am glad the person who done it to me is dead. I haven't even told my own wife what happened to me.

Sickos ruin peoples lives. And people like Janner, Saville should have been found out years ago. But they get protected by those in high office.
In MPs it will get swepted under the carpet

"Physical and sexual abuse on an industrial scale" went "unchecked for decades" at children's homes in a south London borough, a victims' report says.

The report detailing claims by 600 people will go before the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse.

At a preliminary hearing earlier, the Shirley Oaks Survivors Association was given "core participant status".

Child abuse, is a vile act by persons, whether it men or women. Yes, Johnson was jailed. But l just wish that the police and authorities didn't sweep crimes like this under the carpet. Crimes that are committed like this. With lack of evidence, the victims are scared to come forward.

When l told my parents about it, and then the police. I was told forget it, its in your head

I have said for many years that 'groomers' go undetected, and get away with any court action, unless the police and authorities take it very seriously.

Even with the Saville, business, we have many well known celebrities, and even politicians. Have got away with it.

When l hear of this evil trade, it brings back to me, what happened, to me.

I can even still remember the house, that l went to. And what happened. And that is 50 years ago.

I believe that there should be a mandatory sentence of 30 years minimum, for this sort of crime

Its takes away your dignity, and live with it for ever.

And when l hear everyday, that an famous person, or MP is in the frame. Then you hear from the victim. They got bought off. And the culprit hires a big money lawyer. And the culprit gets away with it.

I suppose the only good thing, that has come out of the Saville case, is that victims are now coming forward

Now abuse claims have been made against former Liberal MP Clement Freud.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36535263

The late broadcaster and MP Sir Clement Freud has been accused of abusing two girls between the late 1940s and 1970s.

Sylvia Woosley, who first met Freud when she was 10 and later went to live with him, told the ITV Exposure programme that he abused her for years.

A second woman, who wants to remain anonymous, claimed he abused her as a child and raped her when she was 18.

His widow Jill Freud, 89, said she was "deeply saddened and profoundly sorry for what has happened to these women".

I wonder how many more?...

[nashville]

Why oh why could these people not been found out before they pass away, Too much cover ups and back handlers, Well done for his widow say what she did, they normally say it's not true,
