"A former radio DJ who was a friend of Jimmy Savile has been found guilty of a string of sex offences against young girls. Ray Teret, 73, from Altrincham, was convicted of seven counts of rape and 11 counts of indecent assault at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court. He abused girls aged as young as 12 during the 1960s and 1970s. Teret, who was mentored by Savile in the early days of his career, was cleared of a number of other charges. He was found not guilty of aiding and abetting Savile to rape a 15-year-old girl in the early 1960s. But he was found guilty of raping the complainant himself, along with 17 other charges." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-30350179

Another perv is found guilty. Hope he gets a lengthy sentence.

    He'll now be going somewhere where he'll be looking over his shoulder for a very long time.

    Jail time would suit me just fine (for him, not me)

    I bet it wouldn't if you were in for this type of offence.

    Sorry I should have added for him not me :) Jeez I'd die in prison, the wimp that I am.

    I've edited my original post.

    It won't be that long, considering his age.

    He'll most probably die in prison. That's long enough.

    Loss of freedom is quite a punishment don't you think?

    Jail is too good for people like this, they should have their bits cut off.

    I was being sarcastic. Apologies if it was misread.

    Don't worry, I'm sure someone will be along soon to explain how this is all just a witch hunt and he can't possibly have been convicted fairly.

    Some parts of this investigation into celebs have pretty much a mud slinging and lets see where it sticks and hopefully long enough for a jury to believe it by the CPS who just want everything to be sent to a judge/jury so if they get it wrong they can say "well its not our fault"

    But if they get a solid conviction then hang em high, but still all the lords/mp's etc that fiddled get away scot free so it's mainly a bit of stuff to trim the lowest hanging fruit while saving those at the top

    Completely agree. There'll be a lot of 'elite' people who'll escape justice while other paedophiles get locked up. The elite will look after their own.

    Hmm... The liar told the jurors:
    During the trial, Teret told jurors he had no interest in underage girls.

    But the court heard he had a previous conviction for sexual intercourse with a 15-year-old girl in 1999.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30431452

    Shows what liars offending paedophiles are. I wonder if his 25 year sentence is a minimum of?

    Didn't think he'd get anything like that long - pleased he did though.

    No he won't. Hardly anyone ever serves the full sentence.

    This is what the judge said.

    Teret, from Altrincham, was told by Mr Justice Baker that the 25-year sentence means he will likely spend the rest of his life in jail.
