"POLICE probing an underage sex ring at the heart of Maggie Thatcher’s government were warned: “Stop investigating if you want to keep your jobs.”" http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/view/279380
I've heard about this story in passing through the news - very sad I haven't read too much about it, though I note in your post above it seems to say that she didn't want the case to go to court originally. I presume another victim came forward and agreed to take him to court? I imagine she felt alot of pressure to be a corroborating witness or whatever the correct legal term is.
I can't find the full details online but Francis Andrade had told a friend who also knew Brewer. The friend was concerned Brewer still had connections with teaching youths she informed the police of the allegations.
The jury had been told that Andrade had not initiated the police investigation which led to the trial. It was the mother of one of her violin pupils who raised the alarm in 2011, the court heard.
Andrade told the jury she had been furious at the woman's intervention but agreed to give evidence against Brewer.
Ms Andrade had been adopted, she said from the age of age 8 an uncle had sexually abused her which continued to her wedding day in 1988.
....when she claimed the uncle squeezed her breast and whispered: "Remember I was there first."
Francis Andrade told the court that in 2002 she reported to the police inappropriare sexual behaviour by another tutor at the establishment. At the same time she contacted Brewer suggesting he had himself to the police.
Since this is a relatively new thread why not just start a new thread for the Operation Yewtree updates and start to put some distance between these people and Jimmy Savile?
There is probably no connection between most, if not all, of these people
There is also a danger that everyone is going to end up tarnished with the same brush, even if they don't deserve it.
looking at the case and circumstances of that poor woman who took her own life after having to give evidence in the trial of the alleged pedo music teacher.
crikey.
can you imagine the genuine cases of child abuse out there where the now adult victim prefers to keep the whole thing buried ,mainly as a way of dealing with living with it and living with it.
i can totall understand why not all victims would even want to go through this kind of suffering when they have already found a way of living with it through the years.
I'd bet there are thousands of monsters out there who are still benefiting from this very scenario.
No doubt mainly thanks to your regular news/article updates
Completely agree. Sad_BB_Addict's efforts are greatly appreciated.
And can we please stick to this thread, at least for now. JS was involved with sexually abusing the young and vulnerable. This links in with all that has been going on elsewhere.
The links also show how authorities choose to ignore, even when the perpetrator confesses! Shocking and almost unbelievable!!

Have I been going too off topic? I haven't noticed much of relevance about him in the media recently. Presumably we'll hear more in the future as investigations conclude...

No. Abuse covers all spectrums. JS was just one of many who were allowed to get away with it. By having one thread, how and why this happened is slowly being revealed.

True. I can be a bit random though...if I see any relevant news/info etc. worth sharing that hasn't been posted then ill share, of course.
A letter from one consultant psychiatrist to another said: "As you are aware, the original referral was made through Dr Fleur Fisher because Carole (sic) was experiencing a great deal of emotional distress because of the work she was doing with the Police in re-living distressing details of the alleged satanic ritual abuse she suffered as a child."
The Felsteads have established there was no such police investigation.
