Something I do not understand, where did McAlpines name
origginate from?
It seems the victim knew it was not McAlpine but somehow the police
told the victim his abuser was McAlpine, how can this be cos the police were
not there so the victim is
the only one who coudl identify him.

Makes not sense to me.

He reckons the Police told him the man he'd identified in a photo (of his
alleged abuser) was McAlpine and that he didn't know it wasn't, until 20
years later.

You'd think he might have wondered at some point, "If I've positively
identified Lord McAlpine, why haven't they arrested him?"

He might also have asked himself why the pictures of the Lord in the
newspapers and on TV were not the same as the one he saw many years
ago. I think if one is impressionable and the cops tell one they have
been abused by a named person, it could be difficult to dismiss what
the cops said. Have the cops admitted this?

I think everthing we "know" has come from Messham himself so far, so who
knows??

Right so we are supposed to belive that somehwo he produced a photograph
and police gave him the name of the wrong person?
That is very hard to believe, to me it sounds like the police deliberately
gave him the
wrong name.

Was Lord McALpine questioned at the time? If not why not?


It seems odd the press are concentrting on the BBC story, there is something
very fishy
about this whole thing, they want to do anything but investigate the real
crime.

And as you say why didn't they arrest him?

It seems to me the police were protecting someone.

That's the real issue.

And who realy was in the photo?

I reckon there is a helluva lot of truth in what Messham has said but
that he has been got at to believe he is wrong.

Had he thought that, he might have gone on to think, "well, he's a rich
man with friends in high places."

In the papers it said that the person identified was a McAlpine, a
member of the family - now dead.

Something I just made up:

All the JS case has is the say so of alleged victims. Cant be factually
proven, no hard evidence. Presumably the same could be true of McAlpine.
Since there is no hard evidence only this accusation, no criminal court
could convict, but a counter civil case could succeed.

So, maybe, after a a few days, once McAlpine's solicitors have made sure
no hard evidence exists, this bloke is told: back off, finger the dead
guy and we wont sue you in to destitution.

Like I say, totally made up. All lies on my part. Don't believe any of it.

questions to ask. You just don't at that age. Your parents (possibly
not in Meesham's case) and your home and sibling(s) are the centre of
your world. We were taught how to cross the road, the basic elements
of road safety on our little bikes, never to talk to strangers and ask
a policeman if we got lost. Other than that, we roamed far and wide,
either alone or in little "Just William" style gangs. In my case it
was the town of Hastings, centering around the Alexandra Park, Queens
Road, the seafront and the Old Town. Those were halcyon days in which
school holidays, especially in summer, seemed to last forever, a bag
of chips from the chippy costing 6 old pence.

But why should I believe you either?

Do you have any evidence to support your accusation? Or are you just
trying to deflect guilt from yourself?

Not really as no dead person here has been named or accused of anything,
this is just a possible explanation of a mistaken identity - a mistaken
identity acknowledged by the still living and breathing accuser.

But I take it from that comment, you believe that if Saville was still
alive he would be giving a good account of himself?

Seriously?

If Savile was still alive there would be no accusations and thus no
reason for him to need to defend himself.

>Seriously?

Yes, the evidence for what I have stated is so conclusive that you
surely do not need me to spell it out?

Indeed, it is an open forum but I asked AC about his opinion, about what
he wrote, and I asked him if he felt a particular way. And you answered
instead.

That's a bit weird by anyone's measure.

On the contrary, it is very common in a Usenet discussion when someone
asks for an opinion from one specific poster, for other posters to
chip in with *their* opinions. In this case it was particularly
appropriate because I have several times expressed a very similar
observation to the one AC expressed that prompted your question, and
so your question related to what *I* had previously written as well.

Again, I asked AC quite specifically about his stated opinion and you
answered as if you had posted what he had written. Or knew his opinion
so could write on his behalf.

It was so odd, it even made me check that I replied to the correct post
and had not somehow mistaken the quoting, but nope, it was clearly AC's
post.

So - still weird. But do feel free to wriggle some more.

I don't recall ever seeing Lord McALpine on TV or in the media or
TV untill recently. I had to look him up to find out who he
was and what he ever did (nothing anyone normal would be interested in).

So I thinkt he answer is he was not more likly to see him on TV as he
was to see u or i.

NO probs I will do it for him.

If you wanted to solicit a response from him and him alone you should
email him persoannly.

Anyhow, it's not a crime to speak when not spoken to, well not yet.

Mc Alpine is almost certainly a child abuser, as rumours about this have been circulating for many years. However in common with other high profile abusers such as Mandelson, he is also a very powerful man, so is teflon until his death, when things will probably come out..........
