"The Stoke Mandeville report said the victims, abused from 1968-92, were aged eight to 40.

It also found:

"Savile had "virtually unrestricted access" to clinical areas and patients during the 1970s and 80s

"several sex abuse claims were made against him from 1972-85, to different staff members, but only one was a "formal complaint"

"that complaint by a father "should have led to Savile's suspension from the hospital and a formal police report being made"

"Dr Androulla Johnstone, the report's lead investigator, said the victims were "patients, staff, visitors, volunteers and charity fundraisers" - with almost half aged under 16 and 10 under the age of 12.

"Around one third of his attacks were against patients, just over 90% of the victims were female," she said.

"The sexual abuse ranged from inappropriate touching to rape.

"Savile was an opportunistic predator who could also on occasions show a high degree of pre-meditation when planning attacks on his victims."

Technically Jimmy Saville is innocent as he has never been convicted of any offence.

I do not wish to say whether he was guilty or not, but not one of Savilles accusers evidence has ever been tested in court, and why did nothing come to light until after his death?
