All of the accusers hid their identity, and on every case he was already in a sexual relationship with them, but they've taken 10 years to make the allegations through the media, nothing has been raised to the police. While I agree its wrong, the 16 year admits it was legal (consensual sex at 16), but claims that in hindsight that she feels the law shouldn't allow it.
They draw on a lot of content from his stand up shows and book entries to corroborate the claims. He has always been open about his sexual attitude and behaviour, and he was voted shagger of the year 3 years on the bounce. 1000's of women were contacted by the media to dig up dirt, and there's videos online of ex partners saying they were contacted by The Times and Channel 4 but their accounts were not used as it didn't fit the narrative. There's a lack of a dissenting voice.
But he was clearly a narcissistic sex addict. They claimed he was bedding 5 girls a day on a working, women from the audience or staff. Things were different 15 years ago. Questions have to be put to the industry, who appeared to allow his behaviour.
There's the conspiracy theorists claiming he was too close to 'the truth', he has been talking openly about things like how taxpayers funded the vaccines, but big pharma have taken all the profits, creating dozens of billionaires. The timing of this does make you wonder, when the reporting against Prince Andrew, Epstein, even Huw Edwards and Schofield, is/was so much softer.
We'll see if police investigate, some of the claims are really serious, which makes it all the more odd they have not reported it to the police first.
