It's well-known that he courted Mandy Smith when he was 48 and she was 14. They were pictured together "dating" at the time and Mandy has stated publicly that he did indeed sleep with her while she was underage.

Seriously, even if Mandy Smith hasn't given a formal statement to the police, there must be more than enough evidence to get Wyman arrested and questioned about the relationship? Why the f*** has this guy got away with it? I remember they were pictured together on an awful lot of "holidays", so did the abuse take place in countries with a lower age of consent?

And as said, there is enough evidence to pull him in and question\charge Wyman yet still the police\CPS won't do anything. Like I said, its all double standards for as long as a person is still marketable and profitable to the music industry etc.
He should have been arrested for "Je Suis Un Rockstar".

Bill's been married to his current wife who is 45 for the past 18 years.
We haven't enough rugs and brushes for that! ;-)
At the start of the show, Jim Bowen and Tony Green were talking about names for certain 'throws' in darts. LIke "shaghai" meaning something or other.
Anyway, i'm sure Jim made a joke where as if you needed "a score under 16" you called it a "Bill Wyman".
It was actually quite shocking.
Here we have a 1990s show casually joking about this!
Without a formal statement, or any other supportive evidence, what is there left to begin a prosecution with?
Roman Polanksi is another odd one. I've heard people defending him (Whoopi Goldberg for one) for being with an underage girl
Difference he was charged and is still wanted in America.
Yes, with proper details, after a formal interview, and giving the Police something to base an interview on.
Anyone can say any old rubbish in the press, then deny it. It has no legal basis in something like this.
On 2 June 1989, aged 52, Wyman married 18-year-old Mandy Smith whom he had been dating since she was 13 and he was 47 years old. According to Smith, their relationship was sexually consummated when she was 14 years old.
Definitely the illegal activities of a pedophile in plain sight of everyone.
But not in public interest to prosecute so best to forget about this one.
It was 14 according to Mandy. She herself doesn't want him to be prosecuted, for her own reasons.
A woman I know started having sex at 15 with a 21 year old man. Do you think he should be prosecuted? She would disagree, because they've been married for more than 30 years.
Um, yes. She would need to present all of the evidence in open court so that the justice system can do it's work.
If the police did tell him that they weren't bothered that he had sex with a 14-year-old lass, I find that disgraceful. No doubt they'd have took the average Joe in for questioning straight away if someone had told them that. If he did have sex with her when she was underage, the double standards stink!
There is why charges have not and cannot be brought.
Do you think there are no average Joes who have had sex with girls under 16? Do you think they should all be prosecuted?
And if she just says it was for PR that we said it and we didn't actually do the dirty then where does the case go ?
Or a priest.
And what do people suggest for when the alleged victim does not want them to be prosecuted?
Exactly. It's difficult enough getting a prosecution when the victim actually WANTS one.
It is utterly ridiculous that he's not being investigated or brought in for questioning over this. However, if no one's making a complaint against him, that might be why the police aren't bothering with him for.
