“'HE WAS A MONSTER' England football legend’s dad sentenced to 20 years in prison for raping children”
In the U.K. a famous football stars father is caged for 20 years for multiple child rapes. But cannot be named for ‘legal reasons’.
I haven’t had time to research this as I had to post it but do not know a lot about football. Any soccer/football fans hear anything?

Premier league started in 1992. Case was heard in Croydon, so an England & Premier league football legend from that time and place would be Ian Wright. Born in 1963, and raised in Croydon, that would make a 79 year-old man 23 when he was born.
Oddly enough, Wright has appeared in a promo for Gillette (who I have flagged on here as using advertising that contains subtle paedophile themes) which is titled "A Letter to My Dad" https://youtu.be/E7Cs9MJnwuI
Wright is a big TV personality who appears on many soccer shows in the UK, especially BBC's Match of the Day and is a former team mate, both at Crystal Palace (Croydon) and England, of England coach Gareth Southgate. I think that is why this has been covered up by courts and media.
Most of Wright's bios mention he was estranged from his father at an early age and was brought up by a cruel step-father, whose name and age I haven't found out yet.

If it's being covered up for anything, and it is indeed Ian Wright, then it'll be to protect one of their star BLACK television personalities above anything else, I'll bet. He only got the MOTD gig in the first place because word came from up on high that they needed to "diversify" the show as three or four White men just wasn't allowed anymore. Hence, Alan Hanson got the boot despite being vastly knowledgeable about the game, and Wrighty got brought in instead. They wouldn't want anything to damage his image as there aren't really any others worth a damn that are Black. That would make sense for them wanted to protect him like that. If it is him of course.

I thought Wright too.
