Don't get me wrong, I think that this is a great development but something feels odd about this. How has this been allowed to come to light over the past couple of years? I really do not hope this isn't some sort of limited hangout that targets specific people while leaving some other living more "prestigious" people uninvestigated.
That is how it's always been. People like Savile and Sandusky are small time. They are the scapegoats for the (far larger) crimes being committed all over the world by people just as sick, just as perverted, and just as evil as them (and probably more so in many cases).
I don't think these two links can possibly be posted enough. Everyone in the world should take the time to read through them and realize the depth of evil that exists.
I would guess it almost certainly will be. I recall the first accounts of this leaking in the early 90's, when victims began coming forward. However, their accounts were brushed aside. I think part of the reason it's gaining momentum now is that several of the criminals have died.
